🌙✨𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘓𝘰𝘯𝘨 𝘋𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘮 is open at @mcachicago! Make sure to get tickets online (link in bio) and visit @candida_alvarez_studio ’s 2 new works on view; the exhibition runs through January 17, 2021. Against the backdrop of a global pandemic and a renewed reckoning over racial justice and inequality, 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘓𝘰𝘯𝘨 𝘋𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘮 invites visitors to see the city of Chicago, the world, and themselves, through the eyes of more than 70 local artists whose work offers us ways to imagine a more equitable and interconnected world. Named after the 1958 novel by socially committed author Richard Wright, 𝘛𝘩𝘦 𝘓𝘰𝘯𝘨 𝘋𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘮 brings together work by both emerging and established Chicago artists, and includes painting, performance, sculpture, video, and sound art.
