About the event
In partnership with Intuit: The Center for Intuitive and Outsider Art, our latest show is an exhibit worth a thousand words.
What Are Words For? features works of art by six Project Onward artists: Catherine Butterfly, William Douglas, Safiya Hameed, Molly McGrath, Luke Shemroske, and Lucy Woodhouse. The exhibition centers on the significance of words and language represented in art— What do the words mean? How do they enhance or challenge the images they accompany? Is their presence as significant as their absence? These questions serve as points of entry for audiences to consider when looking at the varied styles of each artist.
Light refreshments will be available at the reception.
The opening is free to join, but you can reserve tickets in advance on Tock. Contact Intuit at (312) 624-9487 for accessibility and/or ticketing questions. Additional details here: https://www.art.org/opening-reception-what-are-words-for/
