TalkingPoint with Anti Gravity Surprise6pm March 3, 2008
at the Hyde Park Art Center TalkingPoint is a free monthly Monday evening series in which Chicago-based cultural producers share their ideas as a starting point for conversation in an intimate setting. Since 2001, public art group Anti Gravity Surprise has addressed the concept of world peace in 9/11-themed multimedia project Gathering Motion; mounted a full eight-hour day of art and discussion about work with Second Shift; and hosted $election community art events to engage voters. Co-founders Kathleen Duffy and Jennifer Karmin will speak about their collaborative approach and ongoing work Tell Us What You Think, an evolving public art project that will be distributed as a free workbook. Come down to the Hyde Park Art Center for a chance to listen, discuss, and learn. Food and drink provided. TalkingPoint is curated by Dan Wang. Past guests include Industry of the Ordinary, Janice Misurell-Mitchell, Theaster Gates, and Jeanne Dunning. The series is generously sponsored by a donation from Anstiss and Ronald Krueck. |
