Bad At Sports: BASECAMP
October 7-November 25, 2006
As apart of ThreeWalls new annual Base Camp concept, Bad At Sports will be the first “site-less” collaborative to commandeer the residency space for their operations. As apart of the Base Camp program, Bad At Sports will host a series of public programs aimed at getting Chicago talking – about Chicago Art.
During their Base Camp, Bad At Sports will open the ThreeWalls door for a series of special public programs including live interviews/podcast recordings with Kerry James Marshall, Rhona Hoffman and Franceso Bonami; an Arts Media Tea Party with Chicago’s arts bloggers and zine writers; two Bad At Sports moderated salons, “What the heck do you mean Chicago art?” and “Where in the [Art] World is Chicago?;” and inspired by “One Book, One Chicago”, Bad At Sports literary correspondent, Terry Griffith, will invite readers to join in a Bad At Sports Book Club, with a roundtable discussion about the renewed relevancy of Oscar Wilde’s timeless tale of art and morality, The Picture of Dorian Grey.

Bad At Sports is Duncan Mackenzie, Richard Holland, Amanda Browder, Terri Griffith and Kathryn Born joined by a host of out-of-town correspondents and advisors. Their popular podcast is a mix of outrageous Stern style talk radio, reality programming and college radio, with some artists and thoughtful critique thrown-in for good measure. On August 27th Bad At Sports celebrated their 1st birthday with their 52nd podcast, a series of their funniest and foulest out-takes: art-talk you’ve never heard at the museum. Providing everyone in Chicago with their 15-minutes of shame, Bad At Sports can be found at www.badatsports.com.
