threewalls and
The Green Lantern Press are pleased to announce our latest publishing collaboration, The Artist’s Run Chicago Digest, a complimentary publication to the exhibition Artist’s Run Chicago (curated by Britton Bertran and Allison Peters Quinn) at the
Hyde Park Art Center, May 10th-July 5th, 2009.
The ARC Digest is meant to archive in print the activities of Chicago’s artist-run spaces between 1999-2009. It acts both as a companion to the exhibition and an extension of that project with interviews by Dan Gunn, essays by
Abigail Satinsky, The Pond,
Scott Speh and John Neff,
Mary Jane Jacob and
Lori Waxman, and an accompanying audio program by
Bad At Sports featuring an interview with
Temporary Services and a panel of Chicago artist-run media organizers.
Interviews, essays and responses along with floorplans, exhibition histories and other visuals archive and present a 10-year time period in Chicago’s artist-run culture while providing history, reflection, critique and dialog about artist-run culture, its importance, difficulties, sustainability and necessity as well as its specificity to a community and generation.
Designed by JNL Design. Edition of 500.
Please join us for the release, November 8th at the Hyde Park Art Center.
