These talented artists seek to call attention to overlooked issues–often right under our feet. Working together to create a vibrant installation that bridges Garcia’s figurative murals with Lightbound’s conceptual sculpture, this collaboration seeks to disrupt the dominant understanding of American history that is often whitewashed, flattened, and contrary from known reality. Garcia’s and Lightbound’s work is able to generate understandings for the viewer, of how past events are related to our lives.
This year, EXPO is celebrating the city’s art and design legacy with special programming in alignment with Art Design Chicago. Now entering its seventh edition, EXPO CHICAGO presents artwork from more than 3,000 artists from around the world, and a dynamic roster of programming. We are excited to participate in this year’s expo!
