| When: Friday, July 13th and Saturday, July 14th, 2018 Where: Read/Write Library, 914 N. California Cost: free! More info: http://sixtyinchesfromcenter.org/festival-schedule-chicago-archives-artists-festival-art-design-chicago-edition/ Throughout 2018, Media Burn has been collaborating with Sixty Inches From Center as part of the Chicago Archives + Artists Project. This weekend, it’s time to celebrate the project with a weekend full of free events. This festival will offer a wide range of presentations and workshops that focus on legacy preservation and archive nurturing for Chicago artists, curators, and cultural producers. This festival seeks to show the role archives play in preserving the legacies, stories, and histories of artists — especially the voices of marginalized artists that are often neglected from mainstream conversations around art. The festival will be an opportunity to take a first look at our collaboration with artist Ivan Lozano, who is using our collection to explore the representation of Mexicans in media. Lozano works in a range of mediums, from video to sculpture. The talk will take place from 2:00-3:00pm on Saturday, July 14th. |
