Sunday, November 15
5pm-7pm
Both the abject and sublime throw all boundaries into question. Bodies leak and the sublime gets sticky. Is the abject, then, sublimity's other or its double viewed from a slightly skewed position? Shock and Awe: where the abject and sublime converge examines these questions through the works of 21 contemporary artists.

"Swimming Pool Project Space is proud to present New Work by Lisa Majer. Through the use of crude materials and intuitive techniques, Majer's paintings and videos activate a dialogue between urban and Romantic landscape. At the abject edge of the sublime, the point where vastness becomes claustrophobic, the work moves towards a visceral psychic experience. Skies are surfaces and horizons are positioned as objects obliterated, under which foregrounds recede."

Swimming Pool Project at the Hyde Park Art Center for Artist Run Chicago

Artists Run Chicago is an exhibition showcasing the energy and audacity of some of the most noteworthy artist-run spaces that have influenced the Chicago contemporary art scene over the past decade. Chicago has long been known for cultivating a strong entrepreneurial/Do-It-Yourself spirit in business and the arts. The participating artist-run venues have transformed storefronts, sheds, apartments, lofts, industrial warehouses, garages and roving spaces into contemporary art galleries testing the notion of “exhibition” while complicating the definition of art. Coinciding with the Hyde Park Art Center’s 70th anniversary, Artists Run Chicago reconnects the Art Center to its beginnings as an artist-run space by showcasing spaces that continue the legacy.
