From the School of the Art Institute of Chicago:
The Terra Foundation for American Art has announced Art Design Chicago, "a wide-ranging initiative to explore the breadth of Chicago’s role as a catalyst and incubator for innovations in art and design".
Sabrina E Greig reviewed the recent exhibition by artist, and current BOLT resident, Yvette Mayorga at the Chicago Artists Coalition, "The Politics of Desire" - for the local online arts publication Sixty Inches from Center.
We're artists. We paint, dance, act, strum, perform and write. But are we (even you, authors) masters of writing about what we do? Not always. Still, the world expects us to spell out the our ideas and goals in order to score the grants, residencies and jobs we need. The Edit is a look at artists' statements, bios, cover letters and the editorial process that shapes them into more persuasive arguments for one's practice.
