Paintings By Conor Ekstrom

5.4.13 – 5.19.13

Alcatraz Chicago is proud to present the paintings of Conor Ekstrom. This body of work is indicative of his agency around painting. His process traverses a wide range of territories by replacing borders and creating murky, brackish anti-equations. Riddles with too many answers, alphabets without symbols. The action and mobility of the work occurs over a long span of time by means of visual conversation and the friction of looking. This event is also a celebration for Alcatraz Chicago’s first anniversary!

We found it fitting to mark year one with one endearing artist.

Conor Ekstrom was born in La Crescent, Minnesota in 1991. He has exhibited at independent spaces in Chicago, apartments, and studentrun galleries. Please visit Conor’s website at http://www.cargocollective.com/conorekstrom
