NEXT Fair: April 30 - May 4, 2009
Join threewalls Thursday, February 5th at 7 pm for Hive Brain (contemporary collaboratives and their open source future), a SALON featuring: Death by Design, Temporary Services, Material Exchange and more. Moderated by Elizabeth Chodos of threewalls.
Art with a Hive Brain is a conversation with local visual arts collaboratives about practicing as a group, team or partnership, the relinquishment of singular authorship, the idea of open-source creativity and recent popularity of collaborative practices in contemporary art. Members of Chicago’s art community are invited to collectively examine and confer about these topics and more over drinks and snacks in this, the third of threewalls 2008/09 salons.
threewallsSALONS are an ongoing project that invites creative producers and thinkers into the gallery for an open-forum discussion about currents in contemporary visual art and culture. SALONS pose a discussion topic, gather a few key contributors and then open up the floor for discussion between those actively engaged in the ‘question’ and anyone and everyone who would like to come and be apart of the conversation. Discussions are gently moderated to keep the ideas flowing.
