(Con) Temporary Art Guide / Chicago

Abstract: "The (Con) Temporary Art Chicago Guide is a map of Chicago, showcasing some of the city's best cultural offerings during the spring art season. The territory includes prominent art institutes and initiatives, several annual art festivals and fairs, independent art spaces and other culturally significant projects. We created the guide to help us experience the city as a space for contemporary art, to reflect on the need for and vulnerability of these cultural presentations, and to celebrate art: day and night, inside and outside, high and low."
