Sunday - September 26
Bridge & Theater Galleries Exhibit:
August 13-September 26 Reception: September 17, 7-9pmThis exhibition will feature cheerful acrylic paintings by Mary King and black and white photographs by Gary Cialdella which celebrate the industrial areas of southeast Chicago and northwest Indiana that some people live in the midst of and other people do not realize still exist.
King and Cialdella take two very different approaches in representing this area, but the work of both makes clear their understanding, and even love for, this part of the greater Chicago region.
Mary King exhibits widely. She has had one-person shows in New York, Chicago and Detroit. TheChicago Reader and The New York Times like her. She lives and works in Chicago.
Gary Cialdella is a native of Blue Island. He lives in Michigan and works in Michigan and Chicago. His book The Calumet Region: An American Place was published by The University of Illinois Press in 2009. Works from the book will be included in the exhibition.
