Stop by and visit Retrospective, an exhibition featuring documentation and artwork that was exhibited during Garage Spaces' epic three month run in 2009 as an alternative gallery in Chicago's ever-changing art scene.

"The experiences of the Stolen, Den and Funeral shows are revived and re-presented, interpreted in a "white cube" gallery space. This exhibition chronicles the history, development, installation and striking of the three past exhibitions. RETROSPECTIVE reconstructs the three immersive spaces through 2- and 3-D documentation and creates a memorial to these events that unfolded in a Humboldt Park garage over the course of twelve weeks of exhibitions."

Art on the Move – Mapping Pizza
Meg Duguid and Catie Olson
Art on the move = Mapping Pizza
6:30pm
 
You are invited to line the streets and come cheer for Meg Duguid and Catie Olson’s art moving parade.   On April 30th Duguid and Olson will move Meg’s art collection from her old apartment to her new apartment that is located just three blocks away.  For this process they will need, cardboard, tape, a dolly, a little red wagon, manpower, a map, BLACK STILLETTOS, and properly garnished pizza.
 
Duguid and Olson’s two- person parade of packaged art works will follow a route  from 2846 West 21st street, to 2226 South Marshall Blvd.  Each group of works will mimic a lone post-modern parade float of carefully curated boxes that will be pushed, pulled, and carried by the high-heeled clad duo.  The works to be transported range from small to large, weighing form under a pound to a 250 pound bronze work. Artist work in the move include Andrew Natale, Frank Pollard, Amanda Ross-Ho, Bobby Burg, Siebren Versteeg, Jessica Peterson, Diego Bobby, Jack Sloss, Erik Brown, Stanlyn Breve, Terra Fuller, Iain Muirhead, Elisa Lendvay, Mike Wolf, Dominique Rey, and Brian Taylor.
 
Utilizing their mapped route Duguid and Olson will create and eatable map created from a rectangular cheese pizza with pepperoni dots representing the trail they took on the with artwork parade. Duguid and Olson will then kick off their BLACK STILETTOS, eat the pizza map, and drink beer as a time honored tradition of moving.
