ciclo y ciclo is a celebration of Sixty Inches From Center’s first book, Chicago Archives + Artists Project: Case Studies in Collaboration!
This event features DePaul Art Museum’s Collections Manager David Maruzella and multidisciplinary artist Natasha Mijares, one of the archive + artist pairings commissioned for the publication. A poetry reading/performance by Natasha Mijares will be followed by a conversation between Natasha, David Maruzella and artist Dianna Frid, whose work was a touchstone for Mijares’s research within DPAM’s collection. Book co-editor Kate Hadley Toftness will moderate the discussion. The event and reception are free and open to the public.
Prior to the event, David Maruzzella will lead a special, behind-the-scenes tour focusing on DPAM’s collection of works by Latinx artists. The tour begins at 2:00 PM and is limited to 20 guests. Please RSVP to dmaruzze@depaul.edu if you would like to attend.
ciclo y ciclo takes place during the closing week of DPAM’s exhibition Life Cycles, which features nearly 50 artists from DPAM’s collection and beyond focusing on the processes and materials that structure and subtend life while also examining the life of art objects.
