Coming from different regions and educational backgrounds, the artists &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;C&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;- Sui Jianguo, Zhan Wang, Shen Shaomin, and Chen Wenling &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;C&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt; each employ different materials and visual styles, but they also show commonalities.&lt;span&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;Each work is intensely engaged with important contemporary issues such as the energy crisis, materialism, and globalization.&lt;span&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;They also share inspiration from traditional Chinese art, commercial culture, folk art, and industrial machinery as they explore ways to react to a public space. Contemporary Sculptures from China is presented by the Chicago Department of Cultural Affairs, Millennium Park, in cooperation with Millennium Park Inc., and is sponsored by The Boeing Company with support from the Richard H.

  &lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-text field-field-event-type&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Event Type:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;Other Event&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-date field-field-date&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;date-display-start&quot;&gt;Tuesday, October 6, 2009 6:00pm&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;date-display-separator&quot;&gt; - &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;date-display-end&quot;&gt;Tuesday, April 6, 2010 6:00pm &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;p&gt;
The first Tuesday of the month 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
The MCA offers a range of free and wildly interesting events in the cafe 
almost every Tuesday evening from October through April. Museum admission is 
free to everyone on Tuesdays so come early and visit the galleries and then 
stick around for constructive entertainment accompanied by a glass of wine or a 
cup of Joe and a tasty snack from Puck&#039;s Cafe.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A whimsical 
art party that unites artists of all skill levels. Not really an art class, not 
quite a party; it is a gathering for those who want to have a hands-on encounter 
with art. The MCA provides art supplies and participants bring ideas. There are 
special activities to guide participants through the evening of art making.

The MCA documents contemporary visual culture through painting, sculpture, photography, video and film, and performance. Located in the heart of downtown Chicago, the MCA boasts a gift store, bookstore, restaurant, 300-seat theater, and a terraced sculpture garden with a great view of Lake Michigan.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Mission Statement&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The mission of the MCA is to be an innovative and compelling center of contemporary art where the public can directly experience the work and ideas of living artists, and understand the historical, social, and cultural context of the art of our time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Museum boldly interweaves exhibitions, performances, collections, and educational programs to excite, challenge, and illuminate our visitors and to provide insight into the creative process.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The MCA aspires to engage a broad and diverse audience, create a sense of community and be a place for contemplation, stimulation, and discussion about contemporary art and culture.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;   &lt;/div&gt;

 <title>Visions from a Foxhole: The Wartime Sketches of William Foley</title>

&lt;em&gt;Visions from a Foxhole&lt;/em&gt; includes more than 40 works in pencil, ink, and oil created by William Foley, infantryman in World War II. Many come from the sketchbook he carried during the war; others show the reflections of a veteran over the decades after his service.  
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
This exhibit evokes the scarred winter landscape of the 94th Infantry Division&#039;s push to the Rhine, from shattered cities and blackened forests to the trenches where Foley and his fellow soldiers dug in for battle. There are also a number of personal vignettes of life on the front lines, as soldiers catch a chicken for dinner, take prisoners, explore a soap factory, and stand watch by a wrecked farmhouse. For a time, though his memories of the war were vivid, Foley could only recreate them in black and white. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
 The Pritzker Military Library is open from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday-Friday, and admission is free.

Since its invention, lithography has always been based in the idea that grease and water are mutually rejective and has always remained intimately connected to drawing and painting. Historically the image was created and printed from the surface of prepared limestone slabs but currently the modern ball ground aluminum plate frees the artist from many of the constraints of limestone while producing comparable printed effects. This course includes the theory, drawing techniques, processing, and printing of aluminum plate lithography. Color theory and multiple runs will also be reviewed. This class is open to students of all skill levels and will be taught by Chicago artist Richard Repasky. Class size is limited to 8 individuals. This class costs $300 including all materials except for paper and plates. Plates will be available on the first day of class. Open Studio time for the duration of the class is available for a $2 materials fee per visit.

Melinda Fries, Salem Collo-Julin, and Biggest Fags Ever (Zena Sakowski &amp;amp; Rob Kelly)
January 26 – March 6, 2010
Opening Reception: Wednesday, January 27, 5-8 pm

The Free Store is a nomadic, temporary free store that irregularly visits a variety of Chicagoland neighborhoods. The Free Store, open during all gallery hours, invites you to be involved: come to the store, bring stuff you want to give away, and take stuff that you want. There is no restriction on what you can take—you don’t have to trade or barter. Just take it.

The Free Store takes as inspiration the long-running gift-economy tradition of swap shops, free shops and other similarly named initiatives where materials and services are offered free of charge. Free stores had a brief heyday in the U.S. during the late sixties, with perhaps the most famous example being the free store run by the radical theater/community-action group the Diggers in the San Francisco Bay area. For links to recent examples of free shops visit The Free Store website: freestorechicago.org

The Free Store will be open for business during all related events (see below listing).

To be successful, WE NEED YOUR ITEMS OR SERVICES. Items can be dropped off at Gallery 400 during open hours. The Free Store organizers are always happy to accept donations (everything except for people, animals, and illegal/toxic substances).

Contact The Free Store directly: &lt;a href=&quot;mailto:free@freestorechicago.org&quot;&gt;free@freestorechicago.org&lt;/a&gt; or 773-562-1428.&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:UICgallery400@gmail.com&quot;&gt;UICgallery400@gmail.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://gallery400.blogspot.com/2010/01/two-upcoming-exhibitions-art-work-and.html&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://gallery400.blogspot.com/2010/01/two-upcoming-exhibitions-art-work-and.htm...&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

Nature and Science exhibition 
Reception: Thursday, Feb 11th from 5:00 to 7:30 p.m.

Artists are visionaries for culture and show us different paths for perceiving, exploring and understanding the world. They use mythology, religion, nature and science as portals to other realms.

Learn the exciting processes of printing in color through mezzotint with Chicago-based artist, Connie Wolfe. In this course, you will specifically learn how to print reductive and multi-plate color prints using mezzotint as your starting point. Preparing mezzotint plates and using secondary tonal processes such as aquatint will be covered in this class. Students will learn how to mix color inks, how to transfer key plates to additional plates, how to print multiple colors, and how colors can work together to make visually dynamic images. Additionally, students will learn how to edition, how to prepare paper, and how to sign prints. This class is open to all skill levels, so previous mezzotint knowledge is not necessary. Class size is limited to 8 individuals. This class costs $300 including all materials except for paper and plates. 3” x 4” plates will be available on the first day of class. Open Studio time for the duration of the class is available for a $2 materials fee per visit.

The exhibit “Resiliencia”, organized by the Instituto Cervantes and in collaboration with AECID and PHotoEspaña, presents various works from 10 young artists who participated in the 2009 edition of PHE Discoveries in Latin America. The works in this exhibit present diverse perspectives on society and its ability to adapt and survive while being affected by continuous fluctuations. In Latin America, these creative processes come about in the midst of social, economic, and political turmoil. “Resiliencia” presents the work of professionals who are exploring the changes happening all around them, as well as reflecting on the role of image in our society.&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:cultura@cervantes1.org&quot;&gt;cultura@cervantes1.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://chicago.cervantes.es&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://chicago.cervantes.es&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

‘Drawing the Line’ on Exhibit at BAC Through March 6&lt;br /&gt;
Opening Reception for National Show is Sun., Feb. 14&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(CHICAGO, Feb. 4, 2010) -- “Drawing the Line,” an exhibit of 32 works by 25 members of the Jewish Women Artists’ Network (JWAN), sub-caucus of the WCA , is on exhibit Feb. 5 through Mar. 6 at the Beverly Arts Center, 2407 W. 111th St. (111th Street south on Western Ave.), Chicago. The opening reception will be held Sun., Feb. 14, 2 – 4  PM . The reception and admission to the gallery are free. Gallery hours: 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., Mon. through Sat., 1 to 5 p.m. Sun. &lt;br /&gt;
Sarah Giller Nelson, Art Historian, Chicago, IL juried the exhibit. The works, on exhibit in the East Gallery, explore the theme of “drawing the line” in traditional and new media using literal, figurative and conceptual interpretations. &lt;br /&gt;
“Line denotes order, makes distinctions, determines limits and boundaries and limitations and risks,” wrote Fay Grajower, co-chair of JWAN National Exhibitions. “This exhibit examines some of these possibilities as each artist renders her own interpretation . . . and challenges both the artist and the viewer to question their lines.”&lt;br /&gt;
Artists whose works are on exhibit are: Gloria Askin, Baltimore,Md; Marilyn Banner, Takoma Park, Md.; Catherine Cajandig, Chicago.Ill; Emily Corbato, Plum Island, Mass.; Anne Doris-Eisner, Bethany, Conn.; Sally Duback, Mequon, Wisc.; Harriet Finck, East Orange, NJ; Karen Frostig, Newton, Mass.; Fay Grajower, Boston, Mass.; Susan Harmon, Sterling, Kan.; Wendy Sue Lamm, Los Angeles, Cal; Rona Lesser, Houston; K.A. Letts, Ann Arbor, Mich.; Margaret Parker, Ann Arbor, Mich.; Roxanne Phillips, St. Louis, Mo.; Launa D. Romoff, Los Angeles,Cal; Patricia Elliott Schappler, Bedford, NH; Debbie Schore, Teaneck, NJ; Beth Shadur, Highland Park, Ill.; Lorre Ann Slaw, Northbrook, Ill.; Simone Soltan, Chapel Hill, NC; Karen K. Weyandt, Atlanta, Ga.; and Marian Yap, Pacifica, Cal. &lt;br /&gt;
A full color catalogue is available for this show at the BAC, or by calling Carla Winterbottom, BAC Gallery Curator, 773-445-3838 ext. 203. &lt;br /&gt;
The Jewish Women Artists’ Network was founded by Jewish women artists at the 1991 National Women’s Caucus for Art (WCA) conference in Washington, DC as a forum within the larger art community. With a national membership, it is the only organization of professional Jewish women artists in the United States. The group exhibits at WCA national conferences, and has presented public programs and participated on panels at the conferences.  &lt;br /&gt;
The Women’s Caucus for Art was established in 1972and offers opportunities for women artists, art historians and educators to create and exhibit their work, to meet and exchange ideas, and to promote women’s greater participation in the art world. &lt;br /&gt;
JWAN exhibits have been held in Los Angeles, New York, Dallas, Boston and other cities.

As the body is digitally reflected and reborn, are we looking towards technology to experience ourselves in a redeemed form outside of human societal constructs? When technology captures kinetic energy, is our essence embodied in the pixilation, or is our “self” lost in the process? Through dynamic works by Luftwerk, OpenEnded Group, and Troika Ranch, as well as the Synchronous Objects web kiosk created by William Forsythe, Maria Palazzi, and Norah Zuniga Shaw, the exhibition brings forward exploratory ideas that push and pull our perceptions of the body and impulses to move beyond it into uncharted cyber territory.  

A series of related programs, including gallery talks, discussions and workshops will be offered throughout the exhibition. For more information, visit &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.colum.edu/deps&quot; title=&quot;www.colum.edu/deps&quot;&gt;www.colum.edu/deps&lt;/a&gt;. 

&quot;Digital Incarnate&quot; is co-curated by Alycia Scott and Sara Slawnik and presented by Columbia College Chicago’s: Department of Exhibition and Performance Spaces, The Dance Center, the Ellen Stone Belic Institute for the Study of Women and Gender in the Arts and Media and the Interactive Arts and Media Department.&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:sslawnik@colum.edu&quot;&gt;sslawnik@colum.edu&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.colum.edu/deps&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.colum.edu/deps&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

The work ranges from traditional painting and drawing, photography, non-functional vessels, installation, and a work using food as primary medium.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;Erin Elizabeth and Harry Sidebotham are recent BFA graduates from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, both inspired on some level by the work of Harry’s father Joseph Sidebotham. Within the work shown correlations can be drawn between devices used to create and break space, as well as methods used to challenge it.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;Fred Teifeld, featured in the photography room of the gallery, has gathered images of both recognizable and formidable structures within Chicago architecture that are both geometric and amorphous. Similarly,Nicole Villeneuve has created a new body of 2D work that utilizes paint and found imagery to reinterpret the industrial Cermak corridor of the city.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;The opening reception takes place on February 12, 2010 from 6:00 pm to 10:00 pm. Guests are invited to take part in a community painting, dancing, free improv classes from the neighboring loft of Gregory Winston, and light refreshments. Parking is free and more information about the event can be found at &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.playfulzen.com&quot; title=&quot;www.playfulzen.com&quot;&gt;www.playfulzen.com&lt;/a&gt;.

A Savannah barber, Davis spent his free time carving a diverse but unified body of highly refined sculpture that reflects his deep faith, humor, and dignity. This retrospective features 109 pieces and is organized by Susan Crawley of the High Museum of Art, Atlanta, in association with King-Tisdell Cottage Foundation of Savannah. The title comes from Davis’s explanation of why he disliked parting with his work: “They’re my treasure. If I sold these, I’d be really poor.”&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:intuit@art.org&quot;&gt;intuit@art.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.art.org&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.art.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

Sacred Geometry: Art of the &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;Mandala&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span&gt;will be presented at Life Force Arts Center Gallery, 3148 N Lincoln Ave, Chicago from February 19 - March 31, 2010&lt;/span&gt;.
This art show explores contemporary artists&#039; creations of mandalas,
which artist Diogenes Lamarche defines as &amp;quot;visual compositions, usually
based in a circular pattern, that incorporate different symbolic and
geometric patterns that can lead to shifts in consciousness,
perspectives, and energy flow.&amp;quot; The exhibit includes &lt;span&gt;paintings, sculpture and mixed media and &lt;/span&gt;features a variety of approaches to the &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;mandala&lt;/span&gt;. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;span&gt;Admission is free and gallery hours are by appointment. For more information, contact 773-327-7224 or &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; href=&quot;http://www.lifeforcearts.org//&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;span&gt;www.LifeForceArts.org&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;. &lt;/span&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Wikipedia
says that in various spiritual traditions, mandalas may be employed for
focusing attention of aspirants and adepts, as a spiritual teaching
tool, for establishing a &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Temenos&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Temenos&quot;&gt;sacred space&lt;/a&gt;, and as an aid to &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meditation&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Meditation&quot;&gt;meditation&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trance&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Trance&quot;&gt;trance&lt;/a&gt; induction. In common use, &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;mandala&lt;/span&gt; has become a generic term for any plan, chart or geometric pattern that represents the &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cosmos&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Cosmos&quot;&gt;cosmos&lt;/a&gt; metaphysically or symbolically, a &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Macrocosm_and_microcosm&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Macrocosm and microcosm&quot;&gt;microcosm&lt;/a&gt; of the &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universe&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Universe&quot;&gt;Universe&lt;/a&gt; from the human perspective.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Pat Otto, one of the artists represented in Art of the &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;Mandala&lt;/span&gt;, is also an art teacher and art therapist. &lt;em&gt;&lt;span&gt;
She says, &amp;quot;My artwork comes from images and urges of psyche that
I notice and let surface. They merge with everyday life experiences,
and I bring them into form through working with physical materials,
such as wood, wax, paint and canvas. I enjoy facilitating art
experiences for others to creatively express themselves in a way that
is deeply intuitive and insightful.  I have found, in my own work and
in working with others, that using the mandala in its most basic
form, a circle with a center, creates a safe and sacred space for
expression.  As Carl Jung said, mandalas are a symbol for the Self
seeking wholeness, and are a vehicle for healing. Often, people are
found to spontaneously express images within a circle framework at
chaotic times in their lives.&amp;quot;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;em&gt; &lt;/em&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Another
artist in the show, Steven Blaine Adams, says, &amp;quot;Crystals grow in sacred
geometric patterns, and their properties have been used since ancient
times for healing and magical purposes. As an energy healer myself, I
help clients through using crystals to balance their physical, mental,
emotional and spiritual energy. These properties make crystals ideal
materials for creating sacred mandalas for use in meditation, and I am
making three crystal mandalas for this show: the Green Man, the Sri
Yantra and the Celtic Cross.&amp;quot; 
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;

Life Force Arts Center (LFAC), 3148 N Lincoln, Chicago, 
is Chicago’s  spiritual art gallery and performance space.Our mission is
creating spiritual awakening and transformation through the visual, 
literary and performing arts. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;left&quot;&gt;
The Center presents spiritually based dance, theater, music, performance art, authors, and visual &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;artists&lt;/span&gt;
of all spiritual traditions. LFAC defines spiritual art as art that  
flows from spiritual practice, art that strives to connect the audience 
with Spirit, and art that creates spiritual healing, transformation, or
awakening. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;
   
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
At LFAC, we recognize 
and nurture the fact that Spirit moves through an individual to create 
in many forms of professional practice: art, teaching and healing. 
Spiritual artists often are teachers and healers as well. LFAC is a 
place where the public (audiences, students, clients, participants) can 
partake of all the modalities in which a practitioner is inspired to 
create. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;
  
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
LFAC offers art exhibits, 
performances and spiritual workshops in our 1200 square foot Main Space.
Visit our Gift Shop to purchase artwork, CD;s and DVD&#039;s, jewelry, books
and other products of the artists, teachers and healers who present at 
our Center. The space is available for rental as well, and is perfect 
for workshops, meetings, parties yoga, dance, theater and other events. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Life
Force Arts Center opened in 2008, and is operated by Life Force Arts 
Foundation, which was founded in 1988 as a non-profit, tax exempt 501 
(c) 3 organization to present the   modern dance and performance work of
Joan Forest Mage. As Joan developed the deeper, spiritual aspects of 
her work as shamanic practice, the company grew to support the 
exploration of the art-spirituality connection.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;   &lt;/div&gt;
  &lt;/div&gt;

&lt;p&gt;
This March and April, Peter Patterson of &lt;em&gt;Patterson Glassworks&lt;/em&gt; in Mundelein, Illinois&lt;em&gt; &lt;/em&gt;is featured in the exhibition window &lt;em&gt;Waterworlds &lt;/em&gt;at the Illinois Artisans Shop, Chicago. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Patterson has worked with glass for over 25 years. He earned a BFA from the Cleveland School of Art in Cleveland, Ohio and has studied extensively at the Penland School of Craft in Penland, North Carolina. His unique use of material during the firing process has distinct visual results. The water-like depth of light is built from several surfaces of glass, color overlays, millefiori and gradually spaced bubbles. In &lt;em&gt;Waterworlds&lt;/em&gt;, Patterson uses a process he invented: incorporating phosphorus into the glass, making it glow in the dark. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&lt;em&gt;With my BFA from college majoring in illustration, I like to think of each of my pieces as an illustration. I can achieve this by pre-fusing some of my decoration or using different technique. &lt;/em&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&lt;em&gt;The inspiration for my different series comes from a variety of things including life experiences, scuba diving, working plant knowledge, graphic design and nature itself. I put these fluid motions of the water along with organic shapes derived from nature into my glass creations.&lt;/em&gt;  -Peter Patterson
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Peter Patterson is shown at galleries across the country and is in private collections worldwide. He is represented by the Illinois Artisans Shop, Chicago. All items on display are for sale. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
The Illinois Artisans Shop, a not-for-profit endeavor, is a showcase for art work created by the state&#039;s finest artisans. It provides an ongoing opportunity to view and purchase the best designed and crafted traditional, contemporary, ethnic and folk art made in Illinois. Illinois Artisans Shop, 100 W. Randolph, Ste. 2-200, 312-814-5321, Monday-Friday 9 - 5.

During the month of March, ART ON ARMITAGE: a window gallery will present Lindsay Obermeyer&#039;s A Glass Prairie, an installation that pays homage to the beauty of our natural landscape.  Fashioned from hundreds of beads and yards of wire, each wildflower is a facsimile of those native to the Midwest.  A Glass Prairie will grow over the duration of the exhibition as new flowers are added to the installation each week, filling the space with color and hope for our fragile ecosystem.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
The public is invited to an &lt;strong&gt;artist&#039;s reception &lt;span class=&quot;yshortcuts&quot;&gt;on Sunday March
7th, from 4pm&lt;/span&gt; to 6pm.&lt;/strong&gt;

Coming from different regions and educational backgrounds, the artists &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;C&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;- Sui Jianguo, Zhan Wang, Shen Shaomin, and Chen Wenling &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;C&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt; each employ different materials and visual styles, but they also show commonalities.&lt;span&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;Each work is intensely engaged with important contemporary issues such as the energy crisis, materialism, and globalization.&lt;span&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;They also share inspiration from traditional Chinese art, commercial culture, folk art, and industrial machinery as they explore ways to react to a public space. Contemporary Sculptures from China is presented by the Chicago Department of Cultural Affairs, Millennium Park, in cooperation with Millennium Park Inc., and is sponsored by The Boeing Company with support from the Richard H.

The first Tuesday of the month 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
The MCA offers a range of free and wildly interesting events in the cafe 
almost every Tuesday evening from October through April. Museum admission is 
free to everyone on Tuesdays so come early and visit the galleries and then 
stick around for constructive entertainment accompanied by a glass of wine or a 
cup of Joe and a tasty snack from Puck&#039;s Cafe.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A whimsical 
art party that unites artists of all skill levels. Not really an art class, not 
quite a party; it is a gathering for those who want to have a hands-on encounter 
with art. The MCA provides art supplies and participants bring ideas. There are 
special activities to guide participants through the evening of art making.

The MCA documents contemporary visual culture through painting, sculpture, photography, video and film, and performance. Located in the heart of downtown Chicago, the MCA boasts a gift store, bookstore, restaurant, 300-seat theater, and a terraced sculpture garden with a great view of Lake Michigan.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Mission Statement&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The mission of the MCA is to be an innovative and compelling center of contemporary art where the public can directly experience the work and ideas of living artists, and understand the historical, social, and cultural context of the art of our time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;

 <title>Visions from a Foxhole: The Wartime Sketches of William Foley</title>

&lt;em&gt;Visions from a Foxhole&lt;/em&gt; includes more than 40 works in pencil, ink, and oil created by William Foley, infantryman in World War II. Many come from the sketchbook he carried during the war; others show the reflections of a veteran over the decades after his service.  
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
This exhibit evokes the scarred winter landscape of the 94th Infantry Division&#039;s push to the Rhine, from shattered cities and blackened forests to the trenches where Foley and his fellow soldiers dug in for battle. There are also a number of personal vignettes of life on the front lines, as soldiers catch a chicken for dinner, take prisoners, explore a soap factory, and stand watch by a wrecked farmhouse. For a time, though his memories of the war were vivid, Foley could only recreate them in black and white. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
 The Pritzker Military Library is open from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday-Friday, and admission is free.

Since its invention, lithography has always been based in the idea that grease and water are mutually rejective and has always remained intimately connected to drawing and painting. Historically the image was created and printed from the surface of prepared limestone slabs but currently the modern ball ground aluminum plate frees the artist from many of the constraints of limestone while producing comparable printed effects. This course includes the theory, drawing techniques, processing, and printing of aluminum plate lithography. Color theory and multiple runs will also be reviewed. This class is open to students of all skill levels and will be taught by Chicago artist Richard Repasky. Class size is limited to 8 individuals.

Melinda Fries, Salem Collo-Julin, and Biggest Fags Ever (Zena Sakowski &amp;amp; Rob Kelly)
January 26 – March 6, 2010
Opening Reception: Wednesday, January 27, 5-8 pm

The Free Store is a nomadic, temporary free store that irregularly visits a variety of Chicagoland neighborhoods. The Free Store, open during all gallery hours, invites you to be involved: come to the store, bring stuff you want to give away, and take stuff that you want. There is no restriction on what you can take—you don’t have to trade or barter. Just take it.

The Free Store takes as inspiration the long-running gift-economy tradition of swap shops, free shops and other similarly named initiatives where materials and services are offered free of charge. Free stores had a brief heyday in the U.S. during the late sixties, with perhaps the most famous example being the free store run by the radical theater/community-action group the Diggers in the San Francisco Bay area. For links to recent examples of free shops visit The Free Store website: freestorechicago.org

The Free Store will be open for business during all related events (see below listing).

To be successful, WE NEED YOUR ITEMS OR SERVICES. Items can be dropped off at Gallery 400 during open hours. The Free Store organizers are always happy to accept donations (everything except for people, animals, and illegal/toxic substances).

Contact The Free Store directly: &lt;a href=&quot;mailto:free@freestorechicago.org&quot;&gt;free@freestorechicago.org&lt;/a&gt; or 773-562-1428.&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:UICgallery400@gmail.com&quot;&gt;UICgallery400@gmail.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://gallery400.blogspot.com/2010/01/two-upcoming-exhibitions-art-work-and.html&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://gallery400.blogspot.com/2010/01/two-upcoming-exhibitions-art-work-and.htm...&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

Learn the exciting processes of printing in color through mezzotint with Chicago-based artist, Connie Wolfe. In this course, you will specifically learn how to print reductive and multi-plate color prints using mezzotint as your starting point. Preparing mezzotint plates and using secondary tonal processes such as aquatint will be covered in this class. Students will learn how to mix color inks, how to transfer key plates to additional plates, how to print multiple colors, and how colors can work together to make visually dynamic images. Additionally, students will learn how to edition, how to prepare paper, and how to sign prints. This class is open to all skill levels, so previous mezzotint knowledge is not necessary. Class size is limited to 8 individuals. This class costs $300 including all materials except for paper and plates. 3” x 4” plates will be available on the first day of class. Open Studio time for the duration of the class is available for a $2 materials fee per visit.

The exhibit “Resiliencia”, organized by the Instituto Cervantes and in collaboration with AECID and PHotoEspaña, presents various works from 10 young artists who participated in the 2009 edition of PHE Discoveries in Latin America. The works in this exhibit present diverse perspectives on society and its ability to adapt and survive while being affected by continuous fluctuations. In Latin America, these creative processes come about in the midst of social, economic, and political turmoil. “Resiliencia” presents the work of professionals who are exploring the changes happening all around them, as well as reflecting on the role of image in our society.&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:cultura@cervantes1.org&quot;&gt;cultura@cervantes1.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://chicago.cervantes.es&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://chicago.cervantes.es&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

‘Drawing the Line’ on Exhibit at BAC Through March 6&lt;br /&gt;
Opening Reception for National Show is Sun., Feb. 14&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(CHICAGO, Feb. 4, 2010) -- “Drawing the Line,” an exhibit of 32 works by 25 members of the Jewish Women Artists’ Network (JWAN), sub-caucus of the WCA , is on exhibit Feb. 5 through Mar. 6 at the Beverly Arts Center, 2407 W. 111th St. (111th Street south on Western Ave.), Chicago.

Sarah Giller Nelson, Art Historian, Chicago, IL juried the exhibit. The works, on exhibit in the East Gallery, explore the theme of “drawing the line” in traditional and new media using literal, figurative and conceptual interpretations. &lt;br /&gt;
“Line denotes order, makes distinctions, determines limits and boundaries and limitations and risks,” wrote Fay Grajower, co-chair of JWAN National Exhibitions. “This exhibit examines some of these possibilities as each artist renders her own interpretation . . . and challenges both the artist and the viewer to question their lines.”&lt;br /&gt;
Artists whose works are on exhibit are: Gloria Askin, Baltimore,Md; Marilyn Banner, Takoma Park, Md.; Catherine Cajandig, Chicago.Ill; Emily Corbato, Plum Island, Mass.; Anne Doris-Eisner, Bethany, Conn.; Sally Duback, Mequon, Wisc.; Harriet Finck, East Orange, NJ; Karen Frostig, Newton, Mass.; Fay Grajower, Boston, Mass.; Susan Harmon, Sterling, Kan.; Wendy Sue Lamm, Los Angeles, Cal; Rona Lesser, Houston; K.A.

The Jewish Women Artists’ Network was founded by Jewish women artists at the 1991 National Women’s Caucus for Art (WCA) conference in Washington, DC as a forum within the larger art community. With a national membership, it is the only organization of professional Jewish women artists in the United States. The group exhibits at WCA national conferences, and has presented public programs and participated on panels at the conferences.  &lt;br /&gt;
The Women’s Caucus for Art was established in 1972and offers opportunities for women artists, art historians and educators to create and exhibit their work, to meet and exchange ideas, and to promote women’s greater participation in the art world. &lt;br /&gt;
JWAN exhibits have been held in Los Angeles, New York, Dallas, Boston and other cities.

As the body is digitally reflected and reborn, are we looking towards technology to experience ourselves in a redeemed form outside of human societal constructs? When technology captures kinetic energy, is our essence embodied in the pixilation, or is our “self” lost in the process? Through dynamic works by Luftwerk, OpenEnded Group, and Troika Ranch, as well as the Synchronous Objects web kiosk created by William Forsythe, Maria Palazzi, and Norah Zuniga Shaw, the exhibition brings forward exploratory ideas that push and pull our perceptions of the body and impulses to move beyond it into uncharted cyber territory.  

A series of related programs, including gallery talks, discussions and workshops will be offered throughout the exhibition. For more information, visit &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.colum.edu/deps&quot; title=&quot;www.colum.edu/deps&quot;&gt;www.colum.edu/deps&lt;/a&gt;. 

&quot;Digital Incarnate&quot; is co-curated by Alycia Scott and Sara Slawnik and presented by Columbia College Chicago’s: Department of Exhibition and Performance Spaces, The Dance Center, the Ellen Stone Belic Institute for the Study of Women and Gender in the Arts and Media and the Interactive Arts and Media Department.&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:sslawnik@colum.edu&quot;&gt;sslawnik@colum.edu&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.colum.edu/deps&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.colum.edu/deps&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

This exhibition, organized by the National Gallery of Art in Washington, DC, evokes the discreet world of individual collecting to tell a less familiar story of nineteenth-century art.&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:smart-museum@uchicago.edu&quot;&gt;smart-museum@uchicago.edu&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://smartmuseum.uchicago.edu/darkersideoflight&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://smartmuseum.uchicago.edu/darkersideoflight&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

The work ranges from traditional painting and drawing, photography, non-functional vessels, installation, and a work using food as primary medium.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;Erin Elizabeth and Harry Sidebotham are recent BFA graduates from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, both inspired on some level by the work of Harry’s father Joseph Sidebotham. Within the work shown correlations can be drawn between devices used to create and break space, as well as methods used to challenge it.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;Fred Teifeld, featured in the photography room of the gallery, has gathered images of both recognizable and formidable structures within Chicago architecture that are both geometric and amorphous. Similarly,Nicole Villeneuve has created a new body of 2D work that utilizes paint and found imagery to reinterpret the industrial Cermak corridor of the city.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;The opening reception takes place on February 12, 2010 from 6:00 pm to 10:00 pm. Guests are invited to take part in a community painting, dancing, free improv classes from the neighboring loft of Gregory Winston, and light refreshments. Parking is free and more information about the event can be found at &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.playfulzen.com&quot; title=&quot;www.playfulzen.com&quot;&gt;www.playfulzen.com&lt;/a&gt;.

A Savannah barber, Davis spent his free time carving a diverse but unified body of highly refined sculpture that reflects his deep faith, humor, and dignity. This retrospective features 109 pieces and is organized by Susan Crawley of the High Museum of Art, Atlanta, in association with King-Tisdell Cottage Foundation of Savannah. The title comes from Davis’s explanation of why he disliked parting with his work: “They’re my treasure. If I sold these, I’d be really poor.”&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:intuit@art.org&quot;&gt;intuit@art.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.art.org&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.art.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

Sacred Geometry: Art of the &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;Mandala&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span&gt;will be presented at Life Force Arts Center Gallery, 3148 N Lincoln Ave, Chicago from February 19 - March 31, 2010&lt;/span&gt;.
This art show explores contemporary artists&#039; creations of mandalas,
which artist Diogenes Lamarche defines as &amp;quot;visual compositions, usually
based in a circular pattern, that incorporate different symbolic and
geometric patterns that can lead to shifts in consciousness,
perspectives, and energy flow.&amp;quot; The exhibit includes &lt;span&gt;paintings, sculpture and mixed media and &lt;/span&gt;features a variety of approaches to the &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;mandala&lt;/span&gt;. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;span&gt;Admission is free and gallery hours are by appointment. For more information, contact 773-327-7224 or &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; href=&quot;http://www.lifeforcearts.org//&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;span&gt;www.LifeForceArts.org&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;. &lt;/span&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Wikipedia
says that in various spiritual traditions, mandalas may be employed for
focusing attention of aspirants and adepts, as a spiritual teaching
tool, for establishing a &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Temenos&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Temenos&quot;&gt;sacred space&lt;/a&gt;, and as an aid to &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meditation&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Meditation&quot;&gt;meditation&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trance&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Trance&quot;&gt;trance&lt;/a&gt; induction. In common use, &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;mandala&lt;/span&gt; has become a generic term for any plan, chart or geometric pattern that represents the &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cosmos&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Cosmos&quot;&gt;cosmos&lt;/a&gt; metaphysically or symbolically, a &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Macrocosm_and_microcosm&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Macrocosm and microcosm&quot;&gt;microcosm&lt;/a&gt; of the &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universe&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Universe&quot;&gt;Universe&lt;/a&gt; from the human perspective.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Pat Otto, one of the artists represented in Art of the &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;Mandala&lt;/span&gt;, is also an art teacher and art therapist. &lt;em&gt;&lt;span&gt;
She says, &amp;quot;My artwork comes from images and urges of psyche that
I notice and let surface. They merge with everyday life experiences,
and I bring them into form through working with physical materials,
such as wood, wax, paint and canvas. I enjoy facilitating art
experiences for others to creatively express themselves in a way that
is deeply intuitive and insightful.  I have found, in my own work and
in working with others, that using the mandala in its most basic
form, a circle with a center, creates a safe and sacred space for
expression.  As Carl Jung said, mandalas are a symbol for the Self
seeking wholeness, and are a vehicle for healing. Often, people are
found to spontaneously express images within a circle framework at
chaotic times in their lives.&amp;quot;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;em&gt; &lt;/em&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Another
artist in the show, Steven Blaine Adams, says, &amp;quot;Crystals grow in sacred
geometric patterns, and their properties have been used since ancient
times for healing and magical purposes. As an energy healer myself, I
help clients through using crystals to balance their physical, mental,
emotional and spiritual energy. These properties make crystals ideal
materials for creating sacred mandalas for use in meditation, and I am
making three crystal mandalas for this show: the Green Man, the Sri
Yantra and the Celtic Cross.&amp;quot; 
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;

Life Force Arts Center (LFAC), 3148 N Lincoln, Chicago, 
is Chicago’s  spiritual art gallery and performance space.Our mission is
creating spiritual awakening and transformation through the visual, 
literary and performing arts. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;left&quot;&gt;
The Center presents spiritually based dance, theater, music, performance art, authors, and visual &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;artists&lt;/span&gt;
of all spiritual traditions. LFAC defines spiritual art as art that  
flows from spiritual practice, art that strives to connect the audience 
with Spirit, and art that creates spiritual healing, transformation, or
awakening. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;
   
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
At LFAC, we recognize 
and nurture the fact that Spirit moves through an individual to create 
in many forms of professional practice: art, teaching and healing. 
Spiritual artists often are teachers and healers as well. LFAC is a 
place where the public (audiences, students, clients, participants) can 
partake of all the modalities in which a practitioner is inspired to 
create. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;
  
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
LFAC offers art exhibits, 
performances and spiritual workshops in our 1200 square foot Main Space.
Visit our Gift Shop to purchase artwork, CD;s and DVD&#039;s, jewelry, books
and other products of the artists, teachers and healers who present at 
our Center. The space is available for rental as well, and is perfect 
for workshops, meetings, parties yoga, dance, theater and other events. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Life
Force Arts Center opened in 2008, and is operated by Life Force Arts 
Foundation, which was founded in 1988 as a non-profit, tax exempt 501 
(c) 3 organization to present the   modern dance and performance work of
Joan Forest Mage. As Joan developed the deeper, spiritual aspects of 
her work as shamanic practice, the company grew to support the 
exploration of the art-spirituality connection.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;   &lt;/div&gt;
  &lt;/div&gt;

&lt;p&gt;
This March and April, Peter Patterson of &lt;em&gt;Patterson Glassworks&lt;/em&gt; in Mundelein, Illinois&lt;em&gt; &lt;/em&gt;is featured in the exhibition window &lt;em&gt;Waterworlds &lt;/em&gt;at the Illinois Artisans Shop, Chicago. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Patterson has worked with glass for over 25 years. He earned a BFA from the Cleveland School of Art in Cleveland, Ohio and has studied extensively at the Penland School of Craft in Penland, North Carolina. His unique use of material during the firing process has distinct visual results. The water-like depth of light is built from several surfaces of glass, color overlays, millefiori and gradually spaced bubbles. In &lt;em&gt;Waterworlds&lt;/em&gt;, Patterson uses a process he invented: incorporating phosphorus into the glass, making it glow in the dark. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&lt;em&gt;With my BFA from college majoring in illustration, I like to think of each of my pieces as an illustration. I can achieve this by pre-fusing some of my decoration or using different technique. &lt;/em&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&lt;em&gt;The inspiration for my different series comes from a variety of things including life experiences, scuba diving, working plant knowledge, graphic design and nature itself. I put these fluid motions of the water along with organic shapes derived from nature into my glass creations.&lt;/em&gt;  -Peter Patterson
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Peter Patterson is shown at galleries across the country and is in private collections worldwide. He is represented by the Illinois Artisans Shop, Chicago. All items on display are for sale. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
The Illinois Artisans Shop, a not-for-profit endeavor, is a showcase for art work created by the state&#039;s finest artisans. It provides an ongoing opportunity to view and purchase the best designed and crafted traditional, contemporary, ethnic and folk art made in Illinois. Illinois Artisans Shop, 100 W. Randolph, Ste. 2-200, 312-814-5321, Monday-Friday 9 - 5.

During the month of March, ART ON ARMITAGE: a window gallery will present Lindsay Obermeyer&#039;s A Glass Prairie, an installation that pays homage to the beauty of our natural landscape.  Fashioned from hundreds of beads and yards of wire, each wildflower is a facsimile of those native to the Midwest.  A Glass Prairie will grow over the duration of the exhibition as new flowers are added to the installation each week, filling the space with color and hope for our fragile ecosystem.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;

A living legend...&lt;br /&gt;
March 2, 2010 thru April 9, 2010&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Nevica Project proudly presents &lt;span&gt;Warren MacKenzie - &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;em&gt;A living legend...&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Warren MacKenzie (b. 1924) is recognized as a true master of 20th
Century ceramic art. Through his traditional wheel-thrown vessels, Mr.
MacKenzie&#039;s pottery embodies strong influences from Bernard Leach and
Shoji Hamada.  His work consistently represents the confidence of where
the potter’s hand is felt and touched through the utilitarian pots that
are produced for use in everyday life.&lt;br /&gt;
This exhibition will feature over 50 different stamped pieces created by this legendary potter.&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:info@theNEVICAproject.com&quot;&gt;info@theNEVICAproject.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.theNEVICAproject.com&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.theNEVICAproject.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

The month-long festival will feature performances, workshops, lectures, and film screenings celebrating the Andalusian art of flamenco, and will culminate in the world-wide &amp;quot;Día de Andalucia&amp;quot; day of simultaneous performances in all 26 Instituto Cervantes Centers around the world.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;As part of the Chicago Flamenco Festival 2010, we will be presenting “Camarón, un mito”,&lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;d&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;irected by Jaime Chavarri. &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;This movie was awarded 3 Goya Prizes in 2005 and it is a journey through the life and work of José Monge Cruz, better known as &amp;quot;Camarón de la Isla&amp;quot;. The film is a tribute to this great flamenco singer, who created a whole new way to view the art of flamenco and who had a huge influence on future generations, breaking social and artistic borders. His desires, successes and his struggles are the ingredients in his own personal evolution and are reflected in his particular way of creating music. Camarón taught the world a new way to appreciate flamenco.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:cultura@cervantes1.org&quot;&gt;cultura@cervantes1.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://chicago.cervantes.es/en/default.shtm&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://chicago.cervantes.es/en/default.shtm&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

No you can join them...&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&amp;quot;Bordello&amp;quot;presents beautiful ladies for your artistic pleasure.  Every lovely lady who will pose for your pen or brush has been hand selected for her timing, beauty, cheek, brilliance, gaiety, grace and charm.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Celebrate the sensuality in art as Madame L&#039;amour and one of her flowers, Greta Layne, exhibit their seductive charms in remarkable and intimate settings. The games for this session are more challenging, the poses more daring and for the first time we present a four week &amp;quot;long pose&amp;quot; featuring both Mme L&#039;amour and Miss Layne in intimate embrace.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&amp;quot;Bordello&amp;quot;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Tuesdays, March 2-23&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;7:30&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Studio L&#039;amour&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;939 Randolph&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div&gt;Registration is required.

Coming from different regions and educational backgrounds, the artists &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;C&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;- Sui Jianguo, Zhan Wang, Shen Shaomin, and Chen Wenling &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;C&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt; each employ different materials and visual styles, but they also show commonalities.&lt;span&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;Each work is intensely engaged with important contemporary issues such as the energy crisis, materialism, and globalization.&lt;span&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;They also share inspiration from traditional Chinese art, commercial culture, folk art, and industrial machinery as they explore ways to react to a public space. Contemporary Sculptures from China is presented by the Chicago Department of Cultural Affairs, Millennium Park, in cooperation with Millennium Park Inc., and is sponsored by The Boeing Company with support from the Richard H.

The first Tuesday of the month 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
The MCA offers a range of free and wildly interesting events in the cafe 
almost every Tuesday evening from October through April. Museum admission is 
free to everyone on Tuesdays so come early and visit the galleries and then 
stick around for constructive entertainment accompanied by a glass of wine or a 
cup of Joe and a tasty snack from Puck&#039;s Cafe.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A whimsical 
art party that unites artists of all skill levels. Not really an art class, not 
quite a party; it is a gathering for those who want to have a hands-on encounter 
with art. The MCA provides art supplies and participants bring ideas. There are 
special activities to guide participants through the evening of art making.

The MCA documents contemporary visual culture through painting, sculpture, photography, video and film, and performance. Located in the heart of downtown Chicago, the MCA boasts a gift store, bookstore, restaurant, 300-seat theater, and a terraced sculpture garden with a great view of Lake Michigan.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Mission Statement&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The mission of the MCA is to be an innovative and compelling center of contemporary art where the public can directly experience the work and ideas of living artists, and understand the historical, social, and cultural context of the art of our time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Museum boldly interweaves exhibitions, performances, collections, and educational programs to excite, challenge, and illuminate our visitors and to provide insight into the creative process.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The MCA aspires to engage a broad and diverse audience, create a sense of community and be a place for contemplation, stimulation, and discussion about contemporary art and culture.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;   &lt;/div&gt;

 <title>Visions from a Foxhole: The Wartime Sketches of William Foley</title>

&lt;em&gt;Visions from a Foxhole&lt;/em&gt; includes more than 40 works in pencil, ink, and oil created by William Foley, infantryman in World War II. Many come from the sketchbook he carried during the war; others show the reflections of a veteran over the decades after his service.  
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
This exhibit evokes the scarred winter landscape of the 94th Infantry Division&#039;s push to the Rhine, from shattered cities and blackened forests to the trenches where Foley and his fellow soldiers dug in for battle. There are also a number of personal vignettes of life on the front lines, as soldiers catch a chicken for dinner, take prisoners, explore a soap factory, and stand watch by a wrecked farmhouse. For a time, though his memories of the war were vivid, Foley could only recreate them in black and white. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
 The Pritzker Military Library is open from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday-Friday, and admission is free.

Since its invention, lithography has always been based in the idea that grease and water are mutually rejective and has always remained intimately connected to drawing and painting. Historically the image was created and printed from the surface of prepared limestone slabs but currently the modern ball ground aluminum plate frees the artist from many of the constraints of limestone while producing comparable printed effects. This course includes the theory, drawing techniques, processing, and printing of aluminum plate lithography. Color theory and multiple runs will also be reviewed. This class is open to students of all skill levels and will be taught by Chicago artist Richard Repasky. Class size is limited to 8 individuals. This class costs $300 including all materials except for paper and plates. Plates will be available on the first day of class. Open Studio time for the duration of the class is available for a $2 materials fee per visit.

Melinda Fries, Salem Collo-Julin, and Biggest Fags Ever (Zena Sakowski &amp;amp; Rob Kelly)
January 26 – March 6, 2010
Opening Reception: Wednesday, January 27, 5-8 pm

The Free Store is a nomadic, temporary free store that irregularly visits a variety of Chicagoland neighborhoods. The Free Store, open during all gallery hours, invites you to be involved: come to the store, bring stuff you want to give away, and take stuff that you want. There is no restriction on what you can take—you don’t have to trade or barter. Just take it.

The Free Store takes as inspiration the long-running gift-economy tradition of swap shops, free shops and other similarly named initiatives where materials and services are offered free of charge. Free stores had a brief heyday in the U.S. during the late sixties, with perhaps the most famous example being the free store run by the radical theater/community-action group the Diggers in the San Francisco Bay area. For links to recent examples of free shops visit The Free Store website: freestorechicago.org

The Free Store will be open for business during all related events (see below listing).

To be successful, WE NEED YOUR ITEMS OR SERVICES. Items can be dropped off at Gallery 400 during open hours. The Free Store organizers are always happy to accept donations (everything except for people, animals, and illegal/toxic substances).

Contact The Free Store directly: &lt;a href=&quot;mailto:free@freestorechicago.org&quot;&gt;free@freestorechicago.org&lt;/a&gt; or 773-562-1428.&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:UICgallery400@gmail.com&quot;&gt;UICgallery400@gmail.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://gallery400.blogspot.com/2010/01/two-upcoming-exhibitions-art-work-and.html&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://gallery400.blogspot.com/2010/01/two-upcoming-exhibitions-art-work-and.htm...&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

Nature and Science exhibition 
Reception: Thursday, Feb 11th from 5:00 to 7:30 p.m.

Artists are visionaries for culture and show us different paths for perceiving, exploring and understanding the world. They use mythology, religion, nature and science as portals to other realms.

Learn the exciting processes of printing in color through mezzotint with Chicago-based artist, Connie Wolfe. In this course, you will specifically learn how to print reductive and multi-plate color prints using mezzotint as your starting point. Preparing mezzotint plates and using secondary tonal processes such as aquatint will be covered in this class. Students will learn how to mix color inks, how to transfer key plates to additional plates, how to print multiple colors, and how colors can work together to make visually dynamic images. Additionally, students will learn how to edition, how to prepare paper, and how to sign prints. This class is open to all skill levels, so previous mezzotint knowledge is not necessary. Class size is limited to 8 individuals. This class costs $300 including all materials except for paper and plates. 3” x 4” plates will be available on the first day of class. Open Studio time for the duration of the class is available for a $2 materials fee per visit.

The exhibit “Resiliencia”, organized by the Instituto Cervantes and in collaboration with AECID and PHotoEspaña, presents various works from 10 young artists who participated in the 2009 edition of PHE Discoveries in Latin America. The works in this exhibit present diverse perspectives on society and its ability to adapt and survive while being affected by continuous fluctuations. In Latin America, these creative processes come about in the midst of social, economic, and political turmoil. “Resiliencia” presents the work of professionals who are exploring the changes happening all around them, as well as reflecting on the role of image in our society.&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:cultura@cervantes1.org&quot;&gt;cultura@cervantes1.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://chicago.cervantes.es&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://chicago.cervantes.es&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

‘Drawing the Line’ on Exhibit at BAC Through March 6&lt;br /&gt;
Opening Reception for National Show is Sun., Feb. 14&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(CHICAGO, Feb. 4, 2010) -- “Drawing the Line,” an exhibit of 32 works by 25 members of the Jewish Women Artists’ Network (JWAN), sub-caucus of the WCA , is on exhibit Feb. 5 through Mar. 6 at the Beverly Arts Center, 2407 W. 111th St. (111th Street south on Western Ave.), Chicago. The opening reception will be held Sun., Feb. 14, 2 – 4  PM . The reception and admission to the gallery are free. Gallery hours: 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., Mon. through Sat., 1 to 5 p.m. Sun. &lt;br /&gt;
Sarah Giller Nelson, Art Historian, Chicago, IL juried the exhibit. The works, on exhibit in the East Gallery, explore the theme of “drawing the line” in traditional and new media using literal, figurative and conceptual interpretations. &lt;br /&gt;
“Line denotes order, makes distinctions, determines limits and boundaries and limitations and risks,” wrote Fay Grajower, co-chair of JWAN National Exhibitions. “This exhibit examines some of these possibilities as each artist renders her own interpretation . . . and challenges both the artist and the viewer to question their lines.”&lt;br /&gt;
Artists whose works are on exhibit are: Gloria Askin, Baltimore,Md; Marilyn Banner, Takoma Park, Md.; Catherine Cajandig, Chicago.Ill; Emily Corbato, Plum Island, Mass.; Anne Doris-Eisner, Bethany, Conn.; Sally Duback, Mequon, Wisc.; Harriet Finck, East Orange, NJ; Karen Frostig, Newton, Mass.; Fay Grajower, Boston, Mass.; Susan Harmon, Sterling, Kan.; Wendy Sue Lamm, Los Angeles, Cal; Rona Lesser, Houston; K.A. Letts, Ann Arbor, Mich.; Margaret Parker, Ann Arbor, Mich.; Roxanne Phillips, St. Louis, Mo.; Launa D. Romoff, Los Angeles,Cal; Patricia Elliott Schappler, Bedford, NH; Debbie Schore, Teaneck, NJ; Beth Shadur, Highland Park, Ill.; Lorre Ann Slaw, Northbrook, Ill.; Simone Soltan, Chapel Hill, NC; Karen K. Weyandt, Atlanta, Ga.; and Marian Yap, Pacifica, Cal. &lt;br /&gt;
A full color catalogue is available for this show at the BAC, or by calling Carla Winterbottom, BAC Gallery Curator, 773-445-3838 ext. 203. &lt;br /&gt;
The Jewish Women Artists’ Network was founded by Jewish women artists at the 1991 National Women’s Caucus for Art (WCA) conference in Washington, DC as a forum within the larger art community. With a national membership, it is the only organization of professional Jewish women artists in the United States. The group exhibits at WCA national conferences, and has presented public programs and participated on panels at the conferences.  &lt;br /&gt;
The Women’s Caucus for Art was established in 1972and offers opportunities for women artists, art historians and educators to create and exhibit their work, to meet and exchange ideas, and to promote women’s greater participation in the art world. &lt;br /&gt;
JWAN exhibits have been held in Los Angeles, New York, Dallas, Boston and other cities.

As the body is digitally reflected and reborn, are we looking towards technology to experience ourselves in a redeemed form outside of human societal constructs? When technology captures kinetic energy, is our essence embodied in the pixilation, or is our “self” lost in the process? Through dynamic works by Luftwerk, OpenEnded Group, and Troika Ranch, as well as the Synchronous Objects web kiosk created by William Forsythe, Maria Palazzi, and Norah Zuniga Shaw, the exhibition brings forward exploratory ideas that push and pull our perceptions of the body and impulses to move beyond it into uncharted cyber territory.  

A series of related programs, including gallery talks, discussions and workshops will be offered throughout the exhibition. For more information, visit &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.colum.edu/deps&quot; title=&quot;www.colum.edu/deps&quot;&gt;www.colum.edu/deps&lt;/a&gt;. 

&quot;Digital Incarnate&quot; is co-curated by Alycia Scott and Sara Slawnik and presented by Columbia College Chicago’s: Department of Exhibition and Performance Spaces, The Dance Center, the Ellen Stone Belic Institute for the Study of Women and Gender in the Arts and Media and the Interactive Arts and Media Department.&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:sslawnik@colum.edu&quot;&gt;sslawnik@colum.edu&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.colum.edu/deps&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.colum.edu/deps&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

The work ranges from traditional painting and drawing, photography, non-functional vessels, installation, and a work using food as primary medium.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;Erin Elizabeth and Harry Sidebotham are recent BFA graduates from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, both inspired on some level by the work of Harry’s father Joseph Sidebotham. Within the work shown correlations can be drawn between devices used to create and break space, as well as methods used to challenge it.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;Fred Teifeld, featured in the photography room of the gallery, has gathered images of both recognizable and formidable structures within Chicago architecture that are both geometric and amorphous. Similarly,Nicole Villeneuve has created a new body of 2D work that utilizes paint and found imagery to reinterpret the industrial Cermak corridor of the city.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt; &lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class=&quot;MsoNormal&quot;&gt;The opening reception takes place on February 12, 2010 from 6:00 pm to 10:00 pm. Guests are invited to take part in a community painting, dancing, free improv classes from the neighboring loft of Gregory Winston, and light refreshments. Parking is free and more information about the event can be found at &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.playfulzen.com&quot; title=&quot;www.playfulzen.com&quot;&gt;www.playfulzen.com&lt;/a&gt;.

A Savannah barber, Davis spent his free time carving a diverse but unified body of highly refined sculpture that reflects his deep faith, humor, and dignity. This retrospective features 109 pieces and is organized by Susan Crawley of the High Museum of Art, Atlanta, in association with King-Tisdell Cottage Foundation of Savannah. The title comes from Davis’s explanation of why he disliked parting with his work: “They’re my treasure. If I sold these, I’d be really poor.”&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:intuit@art.org&quot;&gt;intuit@art.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.art.org&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.art.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

Sacred Geometry: Art of the &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;Mandala&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span&gt;will be presented at Life Force Arts Center Gallery, 3148 N Lincoln Ave, Chicago from February 19 - March 31, 2010&lt;/span&gt;.
This art show explores contemporary artists&#039; creations of mandalas,
which artist Diogenes Lamarche defines as &amp;quot;visual compositions, usually
based in a circular pattern, that incorporate different symbolic and
geometric patterns that can lead to shifts in consciousness,
perspectives, and energy flow.&amp;quot; The exhibit includes &lt;span&gt;paintings, sculpture and mixed media and &lt;/span&gt;features a variety of approaches to the &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;mandala&lt;/span&gt;. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;span&gt;Admission is free and gallery hours are by appointment. For more information, contact 773-327-7224 or &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; href=&quot;http://www.lifeforcearts.org//&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;span&gt;www.LifeForceArts.org&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;. &lt;/span&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Wikipedia
says that in various spiritual traditions, mandalas may be employed for
focusing attention of aspirants and adepts, as a spiritual teaching
tool, for establishing a &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Temenos&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Temenos&quot;&gt;sacred space&lt;/a&gt;, and as an aid to &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meditation&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Meditation&quot;&gt;meditation&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trance&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Trance&quot;&gt;trance&lt;/a&gt; induction. In common use, &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;mandala&lt;/span&gt; has become a generic term for any plan, chart or geometric pattern that represents the &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cosmos&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Cosmos&quot;&gt;cosmos&lt;/a&gt; metaphysically or symbolically, a &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Macrocosm_and_microcosm&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Macrocosm and microcosm&quot;&gt;microcosm&lt;/a&gt; of the &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universe&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Universe&quot;&gt;Universe&lt;/a&gt; from the human perspective.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Pat Otto, one of the artists represented in Art of the &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;Mandala&lt;/span&gt;, is also an art teacher and art therapist. &lt;em&gt;&lt;span&gt;
She says, &amp;quot;My artwork comes from images and urges of psyche that
I notice and let surface. They merge with everyday life experiences,
and I bring them into form through working with physical materials,
such as wood, wax, paint and canvas. I enjoy facilitating art
experiences for others to creatively express themselves in a way that
is deeply intuitive and insightful.  I have found, in my own work and
in working with others, that using the mandala in its most basic
form, a circle with a center, creates a safe and sacred space for
expression.  As Carl Jung said, mandalas are a symbol for the Self
seeking wholeness, and are a vehicle for healing. Often, people are
found to spontaneously express images within a circle framework at
chaotic times in their lives.&amp;quot;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;em&gt; &lt;/em&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Another
artist in the show, Steven Blaine Adams, says, &amp;quot;Crystals grow in sacred
geometric patterns, and their properties have been used since ancient
times for healing and magical purposes. As an energy healer myself, I
help clients through using crystals to balance their physical, mental,
emotional and spiritual energy. These properties make crystals ideal
materials for creating sacred mandalas for use in meditation, and I am
making three crystal mandalas for this show: the Green Man, the Sri
Yantra and the Celtic Cross.&amp;quot; 
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;

Life Force Arts Center (LFAC), 3148 N Lincoln, Chicago, 
is Chicago’s  spiritual art gallery and performance space.Our mission is
creating spiritual awakening and transformation through the visual, 
literary and performing arts. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;left&quot;&gt;
The Center presents spiritually based dance, theater, music, performance art, authors, and visual &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;artists&lt;/span&gt;
of all spiritual traditions. LFAC defines spiritual art as art that  
flows from spiritual practice, art that strives to connect the audience 
with Spirit, and art that creates spiritual healing, transformation, or
awakening. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;
   
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
At LFAC, we recognize 
and nurture the fact that Spirit moves through an individual to create 
in many forms of professional practice: art, teaching and healing. 
Spiritual artists often are teachers and healers as well. LFAC is a 
place where the public (audiences, students, clients, participants) can 
partake of all the modalities in which a practitioner is inspired to 
create. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;
  
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
LFAC offers art exhibits, 
performances and spiritual workshops in our 1200 square foot Main Space.
Visit our Gift Shop to purchase artwork, CD;s and DVD&#039;s, jewelry, books
and other products of the artists, teachers and healers who present at 
our Center. The space is available for rental as well, and is perfect 
for workshops, meetings, parties yoga, dance, theater and other events. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Life
Force Arts Center opened in 2008, and is operated by Life Force Arts 
Foundation, which was founded in 1988 as a non-profit, tax exempt 501 
(c) 3 organization to present the   modern dance and performance work of
Joan Forest Mage. As Joan developed the deeper, spiritual aspects of 
her work as shamanic practice, the company grew to support the 
exploration of the art-spirituality connection.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;   &lt;/div&gt;
  &lt;/div&gt;

&lt;p&gt;
This March and April, Peter Patterson of &lt;em&gt;Patterson Glassworks&lt;/em&gt; in Mundelein, Illinois&lt;em&gt; &lt;/em&gt;is featured in the exhibition window &lt;em&gt;Waterworlds &lt;/em&gt;at the Illinois Artisans Shop, Chicago. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Patterson has worked with glass for over 25 years. He earned a BFA from the Cleveland School of Art in Cleveland, Ohio and has studied extensively at the Penland School of Craft in Penland, North Carolina. His unique use of material during the firing process has distinct visual results. The water-like depth of light is built from several surfaces of glass, color overlays, millefiori and gradually spaced bubbles. In &lt;em&gt;Waterworlds&lt;/em&gt;, Patterson uses a process he invented: incorporating phosphorus into the glass, making it glow in the dark. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&lt;em&gt;With my BFA from college majoring in illustration, I like to think of each of my pieces as an illustration. I can achieve this by pre-fusing some of my decoration or using different technique. &lt;/em&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&lt;em&gt;The inspiration for my different series comes from a variety of things including life experiences, scuba diving, working plant knowledge, graphic design and nature itself. I put these fluid motions of the water along with organic shapes derived from nature into my glass creations.&lt;/em&gt;  -Peter Patterson
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Peter Patterson is shown at galleries across the country and is in private collections worldwide. He is represented by the Illinois Artisans Shop, Chicago. All items on display are for sale. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
The Illinois Artisans Shop, a not-for-profit endeavor, is a showcase for art work created by the state&#039;s finest artisans. It provides an ongoing opportunity to view and purchase the best designed and crafted traditional, contemporary, ethnic and folk art made in Illinois. Illinois Artisans Shop, 100 W. Randolph, Ste. 2-200, 312-814-5321, Monday-Friday 9 - 5.

During the month of March, ART ON ARMITAGE: a window gallery will present Lindsay Obermeyer&#039;s A Glass Prairie, an installation that pays homage to the beauty of our natural landscape.  Fashioned from hundreds of beads and yards of wire, each wildflower is a facsimile of those native to the Midwest.  A Glass Prairie will grow over the duration of the exhibition as new flowers are added to the installation each week, filling the space with color and hope for our fragile ecosystem.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
The public is invited to an &lt;strong&gt;artist&#039;s reception &lt;span class=&quot;yshortcuts&quot;&gt;on Sunday March
7th, from 4pm&lt;/span&gt; to 6pm.&lt;/strong&gt;

A living legend...&lt;br /&gt;
March 2, 2010 thru April 9, 2010&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Nevica Project proudly presents &lt;span&gt;Warren MacKenzie - &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;em&gt;A living legend...&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Warren MacKenzie (b. 1924) is recognized as a true master of 20th
Century ceramic art. Through his traditional wheel-thrown vessels, Mr.
MacKenzie&#039;s pottery embodies strong influences from Bernard Leach and
Shoji Hamada.  His work consistently represents the confidence of where
the potter’s hand is felt and touched through the utilitarian pots that
are produced for use in everyday life.&lt;br /&gt;
This exhibition will feature over 50 different stamped pieces created by this legendary potter.&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:info@theNEVICAproject.com&quot;&gt;info@theNEVICAproject.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.theNEVICAproject.com&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.theNEVICAproject.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

&lt;strong&gt;Register &lt;/strong&gt;&lt;strong&gt;here&lt;/strong&gt;: &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/WKH6LZZ&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.surveymonkey.com/s/WKH6LZZ 
&lt;/a&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&amp;nbsp;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
How do we measure the health of the cultural sector? Although tools exist to take the pulse of the economy, until now, Americans have not had an index of cultural indicators that tells us about the cultural health of the country.  The National Arts Index combines four kinds of measures—
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;ul&gt;
	&lt;li&gt; &lt;em&gt;financial&lt;/em&gt; (measures of artists’ income; revenues to arts organizations); 
	&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt; &lt;em&gt;capacity&lt;/em&gt; (measures of capital assets and employment); 
	&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt; &lt;em&gt;participation&lt;/em&gt; (measures of attendance and personal art making); and 
	&lt;/li&gt;
	&lt;li&gt; &lt;em&gt;competitiveness&lt;/em&gt; (the number of degrees granted in the arts; philanthropic support for the arts).  
	&lt;/li&gt;
&lt;/ul&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Taken together, these indicators present a comprehensive assessment of the health of the arts in the U.S and, considered over time, the Index gives us a sense of the direction for the arts sector—a kind of cultural “canary-in-the-mine.” 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Join us as Randy Cohen presents the National Arts Index. The presentation will be followed by a panel discussion about what this means for the arts in Chicago and how we can use this kind of research to strengthen the sector. 
&lt;/p&gt;

Spudnik functions primarily as a space for artists to realize independent projects that require specialized equipment in the areas of Lithography, Intaglio, Relief, Silkscreen, mono-printing, and book binding. Artists work in close proximity to each other, sharing materials and presses, such that the artwork and art-making practices of each participant informs and influences everyone utilizing the space. Community members interested in printmaking are invited to join classes, workshops, and discussions that take place in the studio. Experienced printmakers are invited to participate in Open Studio. Spudnik Press contributes to other projects to provide services and events that foster interactions between diverse members of the community and nurture local culture.   &lt;/div&gt;

Coming from different regions and educational backgrounds, the artists &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;C&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;- Sui Jianguo, Zhan Wang, Shen Shaomin, and Chen Wenling &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;C&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt; each employ different materials and visual styles, but they also show commonalities.&lt;span&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;Each work is intensely engaged with important contemporary issues such as the energy crisis, materialism, and globalization.&lt;span&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;They also share inspiration from traditional Chinese art, commercial culture, folk art, and industrial machinery as they explore ways to react to a public space. Contemporary Sculptures from China is presented by the Chicago Department of Cultural Affairs, Millennium Park, in cooperation with Millennium Park Inc., and is sponsored by The Boeing Company with support from the Richard H.

&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
The MCA offers a range of free and wildly interesting events in the cafe 
almost every Tuesday evening from October through April. Museum admission is 
free to everyone on Tuesdays so come early and visit the galleries and then 
stick around for constructive entertainment accompanied by a glass of wine or a 
cup of Joe and a tasty snack from Puck&#039;s Cafe.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A whimsical 
art party that unites artists of all skill levels. Not really an art class, not 
quite a party; it is a gathering for those who want to have a hands-on encounter 
with art. The MCA provides art supplies and participants bring ideas. There are 
special activities to guide participants through the evening of art making.

Third Tuesday of the month
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
The MCA offers a range of free and wildly interesting events in the cafe almost 
every Tuesday evening from October through April. Museum admission is free to 
everyone on Tuesdays so come early and visit the galleries and then stick around 
for constructive entertainment accompanied by a glass of wine or a cup of Joe 
and a tasty snack from Puck&#039;s Cafe.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
A grab bag of &amp;quot;un-lectures&amp;quot; about a myriad 
of topics that create a variety show-like evening of artist presentations 
curated by different groups from around Chicago.

The MCA documents contemporary visual culture through painting, sculpture, photography, video and film, and performance. Located in the heart of downtown Chicago, the MCA boasts a gift store, bookstore, restaurant, 300-seat theater, and a terraced sculpture garden with a great view of Lake Michigan.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Mission Statement&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The mission of the MCA is to be an innovative and compelling center of contemporary art where the public can directly experience the work and ideas of living artists, and understand the historical, social, and cultural context of the art of our time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Museum boldly interweaves exhibitions, performances, collections, and educational programs to excite, challenge, and illuminate our visitors and to provide insight into the creative process.&lt;br /&gt;

The MCA aspires to engage a broad and diverse audience, create a sense of community and be a place for contemplation, stimulation, and discussion about contemporary art and culture.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;   &lt;/div&gt;

&lt;em&gt;Visions from a Foxhole&lt;/em&gt; includes more than 40 works in pencil, ink, and oil created by William Foley, infantryman in World War II. Many come from the sketchbook he carried during the war; others show the reflections of a veteran over the decades after his service.  
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
This exhibit evokes the scarred winter landscape of the 94th Infantry Division&#039;s push to the Rhine, from shattered cities and blackened forests to the trenches where Foley and his fellow soldiers dug in for battle. There are also a number of personal vignettes of life on the front lines, as soldiers catch a chicken for dinner, take prisoners, explore a soap factory, and stand watch by a wrecked farmhouse. For a time, though his memories of the war were vivid, Foley could only recreate them in black and white. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
 The Pritzker Military Library is open from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday-Friday, and admission is free.

Since its invention, lithography has always been based in the idea that grease and water are mutually rejective and has always remained intimately connected to drawing and painting. Historically the image was created and printed from the surface of prepared limestone slabs but currently the modern ball ground aluminum plate frees the artist from many of the constraints of limestone while producing comparable printed effects. This course includes the theory, drawing techniques, processing, and printing of aluminum plate lithography. Color theory and multiple runs will also be reviewed. This class is open to students of all skill levels and will be taught by Chicago artist Richard Repasky. Class size is limited to 8 individuals. This class costs $300 including all materials except for paper and plates. Plates will be available on the first day of class. Open Studio time for the duration of the class is available for a $2 materials fee per visit.

Melinda Fries, Salem Collo-Julin, and Biggest Fags Ever (Zena Sakowski &amp;amp; Rob Kelly)
January 26 – March 6, 2010
Opening Reception: Wednesday, January 27, 5-8 pm

The Free Store is a nomadic, temporary free store that irregularly visits a variety of Chicagoland neighborhoods. The Free Store, open during all gallery hours, invites you to be involved: come to the store, bring stuff you want to give away, and take stuff that you want. There is no restriction on what you can take—you don’t have to trade or barter. Just take it.

The Free Store takes as inspiration the long-running gift-economy tradition of swap shops, free shops and other similarly named initiatives where materials and services are offered free of charge. Free stores had a brief heyday in the U.S. during the late sixties, with perhaps the most famous example being the free store run by the radical theater/community-action group the Diggers in the San Francisco Bay area. For links to recent examples of free shops visit The Free Store website: freestorechicago.org

The Free Store will be open for business during all related events (see below listing).

To be successful, WE NEED YOUR ITEMS OR SERVICES. Items can be dropped off at Gallery 400 during open hours. The Free Store organizers are always happy to accept donations (everything except for people, animals, and illegal/toxic substances).

Contact The Free Store directly: &lt;a href=&quot;mailto:free@freestorechicago.org&quot;&gt;free@freestorechicago.org&lt;/a&gt; or 773-562-1428.&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:UICgallery400@gmail.com&quot;&gt;UICgallery400@gmail.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://gallery400.blogspot.com/2010/01/two-upcoming-exhibitions-art-work-and.html&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://gallery400.blogspot.com/2010/01/two-upcoming-exhibitions-art-work-and.htm...&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

Nature and Science exhibition 
Reception: Thursday, Feb 11th from 5:00 to 7:30 p.m.

Learn the exciting processes of printing in color through mezzotint with Chicago-based artist, Connie Wolfe. In this course, you will specifically learn how to print reductive and multi-plate color prints using mezzotint as your starting point. Preparing mezzotint plates and using secondary tonal processes such as aquatint will be covered in this class. Students will learn how to mix color inks, how to transfer key plates to additional plates, how to print multiple colors, and how colors can work together to make visually dynamic images. Additionally, students will learn how to edition, how to prepare paper, and how to sign prints. This class is open to all skill levels, so previous mezzotint knowledge is not necessary. Class size is limited to 8 individuals. This class costs $300 including all materials except for paper and plates. 3” x 4” plates will be available on the first day of class. Open Studio time for the duration of the class is available for a $2 materials fee per visit.

Exhibit will run until March 31st; Free Admission &lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The exhibit “Resiliencia”, organized by the Instituto Cervantes and in collaboration with AECID and PHotoEspaña, presents various works from 10 young artists who participated in the 2009 edition of PHE Discoveries in Latin America. The works in this exhibit present diverse perspectives on society and its ability to adapt and survive while being affected by continuous fluctuations. In Latin America, these creative processes come about in the midst of social, economic, and political turmoil. “Resiliencia” presents the work of professionals who are exploring the changes happening all around them, as well as reflecting on the role of image in our society.&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:cultura@cervantes1.org&quot;&gt;cultura@cervantes1.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://chicago.cervantes.es&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://chicago.cervantes.es&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

‘Drawing the Line’ on Exhibit at BAC Through March 6&lt;br /&gt;
Opening Reception for National Show is Sun., Feb. 14&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(CHICAGO, Feb. 4, 2010) -- “Drawing the Line,” an exhibit of 32 works by 25 members of the Jewish Women Artists’ Network (JWAN), sub-caucus of the WCA , is on exhibit Feb. 5 through Mar. 6 at the Beverly Arts Center, 2407 W. 111th St. (111th Street south on Western Ave.), Chicago. The opening reception will be held Sun., Feb. 14, 2 – 4  PM . The reception and admission to the gallery are free. Gallery hours: 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., Mon. through Sat., 1 to 5 p.m. Sun. &lt;br /&gt;
Sarah Giller Nelson, Art Historian, Chicago, IL juried the exhibit. The works, on exhibit in the East Gallery, explore the theme of “drawing the line” in traditional and new media using literal, figurative and conceptual interpretations. &lt;br /&gt;
“Line denotes order, makes distinctions, determines limits and boundaries and limitations and risks,” wrote Fay Grajower, co-chair of JWAN National Exhibitions. “This exhibit examines some of these possibilities as each artist renders her own interpretation . . . and challenges both the artist and the viewer to question their lines.”&lt;br /&gt;
Artists whose works are on exhibit are: Gloria Askin, Baltimore,Md; Marilyn Banner, Takoma Park, Md.; Catherine Cajandig, Chicago.Ill; Emily Corbato, Plum Island, Mass.; Anne Doris-Eisner, Bethany, Conn.; Sally Duback, Mequon, Wisc.; Harriet Finck, East Orange, NJ; Karen Frostig, Newton, Mass.; Fay Grajower, Boston, Mass.; Susan Harmon, Sterling, Kan.; Wendy Sue Lamm, Los Angeles, Cal; Rona Lesser, Houston; K.A. Letts, Ann Arbor, Mich.; Margaret Parker, Ann Arbor, Mich.; Roxanne Phillips, St. Louis, Mo.; Launa D. Romoff, Los Angeles,Cal; Patricia Elliott Schappler, Bedford, NH; Debbie Schore, Teaneck, NJ; Beth Shadur, Highland Park, Ill.; Lorre Ann Slaw, Northbrook, Ill.; Simone Soltan, Chapel Hill, NC; Karen K. Weyandt, Atlanta, Ga.; and Marian Yap, Pacifica, Cal. &lt;br /&gt;
A full color catalogue is available for this show at the BAC, or by calling Carla Winterbottom, BAC Gallery Curator, 773-445-3838 ext. 203. &lt;br /&gt;
The Jewish Women Artists’ Network was founded by Jewish women artists at the 1991 National Women’s Caucus for Art (WCA) conference in Washington, DC as a forum within the larger art community. With a national membership, it is the only organization of professional Jewish women artists in the United States. The group exhibits at WCA national conferences, and has presented public programs and participated on panels at the conferences.  &lt;br /&gt;
The Women’s Caucus for Art was established in 1972and offers opportunities for women artists, art historians and educators to create and exhibit their work, to meet and exchange ideas, and to promote women’s greater participation in the art world. &lt;br /&gt;
JWAN exhibits have been held in Los Angeles, New York, Dallas, Boston and other cities.

As the body is digitally reflected and reborn, are we looking towards technology to experience ourselves in a redeemed form outside of human societal constructs? When technology captures kinetic energy, is our essence embodied in the pixilation, or is our “self” lost in the process? Through dynamic works by Luftwerk, OpenEnded Group, and Troika Ranch, as well as the Synchronous Objects web kiosk created by William Forsythe, Maria Palazzi, and Norah Zuniga Shaw, the exhibition brings forward exploratory ideas that push and pull our perceptions of the body and impulses to move beyond it into uncharted cyber territory.  

A series of related programs, including gallery talks, discussions and workshops will be offered throughout the exhibition. For more information, visit &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.colum.edu/deps&quot; title=&quot;www.colum.edu/deps&quot;&gt;www.colum.edu/deps&lt;/a&gt;. 

&quot;Digital Incarnate&quot; is co-curated by Alycia Scott and Sara Slawnik and presented by Columbia College Chicago’s: Department of Exhibition and Performance Spaces, The Dance Center, the Ellen Stone Belic Institute for the Study of Women and Gender in the Arts and Media and the Interactive Arts and Media Department.&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:sslawnik@colum.edu&quot;&gt;sslawnik@colum.edu&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.colum.edu/deps&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.colum.edu/deps&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

This exhibition, organized by the National Gallery of Art in Washington, DC, evokes the discreet world of individual collecting to tell a less familiar story of nineteenth-century art.&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:smart-museum@uchicago.edu&quot;&gt;smart-museum@uchicago.edu&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://smartmuseum.uchicago.edu/darkersideoflight&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://smartmuseum.uchicago.edu/darkersideoflight&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

A Savannah barber, Davis spent his free time carving a diverse but unified body of highly refined sculpture that reflects his deep faith, humor, and dignity. This retrospective features 109 pieces and is organized by Susan Crawley of the High Museum of Art, Atlanta, in association with King-Tisdell Cottage Foundation of Savannah. The title comes from Davis’s explanation of why he disliked parting with his work: “They’re my treasure. If I sold these, I’d be really poor.”&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:intuit@art.org&quot;&gt;intuit@art.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.art.org&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.art.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

Sacred Geometry: Art of the &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;Mandala&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span&gt;will be presented at Life Force Arts Center Gallery, 3148 N Lincoln Ave, Chicago from February 19 - March 31, 2010&lt;/span&gt;.
This art show explores contemporary artists&#039; creations of mandalas,
which artist Diogenes Lamarche defines as &amp;quot;visual compositions, usually
based in a circular pattern, that incorporate different symbolic and
geometric patterns that can lead to shifts in consciousness,
perspectives, and energy flow.&amp;quot; The exhibit includes &lt;span&gt;paintings, sculpture and mixed media and &lt;/span&gt;features a variety of approaches to the &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;mandala&lt;/span&gt;. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;span&gt;Admission is free and gallery hours are by appointment. For more information, contact 773-327-7224 or &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; href=&quot;http://www.lifeforcearts.org//&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;span&gt;www.LifeForceArts.org&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;. &lt;/span&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Wikipedia
says that in various spiritual traditions, mandalas may be employed for
focusing attention of aspirants and adepts, as a spiritual teaching
tool, for establishing a &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Temenos&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Temenos&quot;&gt;sacred space&lt;/a&gt;, and as an aid to &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meditation&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Meditation&quot;&gt;meditation&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trance&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Trance&quot;&gt;trance&lt;/a&gt; induction. In common use, &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;mandala&lt;/span&gt; has become a generic term for any plan, chart or geometric pattern that represents the &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cosmos&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Cosmos&quot;&gt;cosmos&lt;/a&gt; metaphysically or symbolically, a &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Macrocosm_and_microcosm&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Macrocosm and microcosm&quot;&gt;microcosm&lt;/a&gt; of the &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universe&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Universe&quot;&gt;Universe&lt;/a&gt; from the human perspective.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Pat Otto, one of the artists represented in Art of the &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;Mandala&lt;/span&gt;, is also an art teacher and art therapist. &lt;em&gt;&lt;span&gt;
She says, &amp;quot;My artwork comes from images and urges of psyche that
I notice and let surface. They merge with everyday life experiences,
and I bring them into form through working with physical materials,
such as wood, wax, paint and canvas. I enjoy facilitating art
experiences for others to creatively express themselves in a way that
is deeply intuitive and insightful.  I have found, in my own work and
in working with others, that using the mandala in its most basic
form, a circle with a center, creates a safe and sacred space for
expression.  As Carl Jung said, mandalas are a symbol for the Self
seeking wholeness, and are a vehicle for healing. Often, people are
found to spontaneously express images within a circle framework at
chaotic times in their lives.&amp;quot;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;em&gt; &lt;/em&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Another
artist in the show, Steven Blaine Adams, says, &amp;quot;Crystals grow in sacred
geometric patterns, and their properties have been used since ancient
times for healing and magical purposes. As an energy healer myself, I
help clients through using crystals to balance their physical, mental,
emotional and spiritual energy. These properties make crystals ideal
materials for creating sacred mandalas for use in meditation, and I am
making three crystal mandalas for this show: the Green Man, the Sri
Yantra and the Celtic Cross.&amp;quot; 
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;

Life Force Arts Center (LFAC), 3148 N Lincoln, Chicago, 
is Chicago’s  spiritual art gallery and performance space.Our mission is
creating spiritual awakening and transformation through the visual, 
literary and performing arts. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;left&quot;&gt;
The Center presents spiritually based dance, theater, music, performance art, authors, and visual &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;artists&lt;/span&gt;
of all spiritual traditions. LFAC defines spiritual art as art that  
flows from spiritual practice, art that strives to connect the audience 
with Spirit, and art that creates spiritual healing, transformation, or
awakening. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;
   
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
At LFAC, we recognize 
and nurture the fact that Spirit moves through an individual to create 
in many forms of professional practice: art, teaching and healing. 
Spiritual artists often are teachers and healers as well. LFAC is a 
place where the public (audiences, students, clients, participants) can 
partake of all the modalities in which a practitioner is inspired to 
create. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;
  
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
LFAC offers art exhibits, 
performances and spiritual workshops in our 1200 square foot Main Space.
Visit our Gift Shop to purchase artwork, CD;s and DVD&#039;s, jewelry, books
and other products of the artists, teachers and healers who present at 
our Center. The space is available for rental as well, and is perfect 
for workshops, meetings, parties yoga, dance, theater and other events. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Life
Force Arts Center opened in 2008, and is operated by Life Force Arts 
Foundation, which was founded in 1988 as a non-profit, tax exempt 501 
(c) 3 organization to present the   modern dance and performance work of
Joan Forest Mage. As Joan developed the deeper, spiritual aspects of 
her work as shamanic practice, the company grew to support the 
exploration of the art-spirituality connection.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;   &lt;/div&gt;
  &lt;/div&gt;

&lt;p&gt;
This March and April, Peter Patterson of &lt;em&gt;Patterson Glassworks&lt;/em&gt; in Mundelein, Illinois&lt;em&gt; &lt;/em&gt;is featured in the exhibition window &lt;em&gt;Waterworlds &lt;/em&gt;at the Illinois Artisans Shop, Chicago. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Patterson has worked with glass for over 25 years. He earned a BFA from the Cleveland School of Art in Cleveland, Ohio and has studied extensively at the Penland School of Craft in Penland, North Carolina. His unique use of material during the firing process has distinct visual results. The water-like depth of light is built from several surfaces of glass, color overlays, millefiori and gradually spaced bubbles. In &lt;em&gt;Waterworlds&lt;/em&gt;, Patterson uses a process he invented: incorporating phosphorus into the glass, making it glow in the dark. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&lt;em&gt;With my BFA from college majoring in illustration, I like to think of each of my pieces as an illustration. I can achieve this by pre-fusing some of my decoration or using different technique. &lt;/em&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&lt;em&gt;The inspiration for my different series comes from a variety of things including life experiences, scuba diving, working plant knowledge, graphic design and nature itself. I put these fluid motions of the water along with organic shapes derived from nature into my glass creations.&lt;/em&gt;  -Peter Patterson
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Peter Patterson is shown at galleries across the country and is in private collections worldwide. He is represented by the Illinois Artisans Shop, Chicago. All items on display are for sale. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
The Illinois Artisans Shop, a not-for-profit endeavor, is a showcase for art work created by the state&#039;s finest artisans. It provides an ongoing opportunity to view and purchase the best designed and crafted traditional, contemporary, ethnic and folk art made in Illinois. Illinois Artisans Shop, 100 W. Randolph, Ste. 2-200, 312-814-5321, Monday-Friday 9 - 5.

During the month of March, ART ON ARMITAGE: a window gallery will present Lindsay Obermeyer&#039;s A Glass Prairie, an installation that pays homage to the beauty of our natural landscape.  Fashioned from hundreds of beads and yards of wire, each wildflower is a facsimile of those native to the Midwest.  A Glass Prairie will grow over the duration of the exhibition as new flowers are added to the installation each week, filling the space with color and hope for our fragile ecosystem.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;

A living legend...&lt;br /&gt;
March 2, 2010 thru April 9, 2010&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Nevica Project proudly presents &lt;span&gt;Warren MacKenzie - &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;em&gt;A living legend...&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Warren MacKenzie (b. 1924) is recognized as a true master of 20th
Century ceramic art. Through his traditional wheel-thrown vessels, Mr.
MacKenzie&#039;s pottery embodies strong influences from Bernard Leach and
Shoji Hamada.  His work consistently represents the confidence of where
the potter’s hand is felt and touched through the utilitarian pots that
are produced for use in everyday life.&lt;br /&gt;
This exhibition will feature over 50 different stamped pieces created by this legendary potter.&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:info@theNEVICAproject.com&quot;&gt;info@theNEVICAproject.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.theNEVICAproject.com&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.theNEVICAproject.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

Artistssuch as graphic designers, illustrators, photographers and many others are allcrucial in creating this environment from the designs on the merchandise to thepromotions for the event. The visual elements that often fade into thebackground- band t-shirts, posters, album art, post-event photos, fashion,advertisements and fliers - are now the focus,givingviewers access to the excess.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:mherrera@colum.edu&quot;&gt;mherrera@colum.edu&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-event-location&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Event Location&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-text field-field-venue&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Venue:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;C33 Gallery.

Artist Talk: Robert Wapahi with Linda Stabile
Robert Wapahi, Dakota/Santee artist, will discuss his work, and Linda Stabile, author, will discuss her new book, The Storykeeper, with images by Robert Wapahi.

DATE: Thursday, March 4, 2010 from 12:00 pm to 1:00 pm

Robert Wapahi is a Dakota/Santee artist working in Illinois. He will discuss his artworks including three scratchboard drawings on exhibition in the Illinois State Museum Chicago Gallery’s current exhibition Pathways and Portals. In addition to his individual works he
will be joined by Linda Stabile to discuss his illustrations for her new book, The Storykeeper.

Wapahi entered the world of visual art at the age of thirty-eight. Up until this point he had been an aspiring musician. He discovered that pen and paper were more easily transported than a piano or set of percussion instruments. Wapahi found his reason to draw on a visit
to Chicago and the American Indian Center. Since then, he is responsible for decorating the American Indian Center’s one-hundred room building. Music was Robert Wapahi’s first love, but he has since fallen for visual art.

This event is free to the public. All ages are welcome. The Gallery is wheel-chair accessible.

Coming from different regions and educational backgrounds, the artists &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;C&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;- Sui Jianguo, Zhan Wang, Shen Shaomin, and Chen Wenling &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;C&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt; each employ different materials and visual styles, but they also show commonalities.&lt;span&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;Each work is intensely engaged with important contemporary issues such as the energy crisis, materialism, and globalization.&lt;span&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;They also share inspiration from traditional Chinese art, commercial culture, folk art, and industrial machinery as they explore ways to react to a public space. Contemporary Sculptures from China is presented by the Chicago Department of Cultural Affairs, Millennium Park, in cooperation with Millennium Park Inc., and is sponsored by The Boeing Company with support from the Richard H.

&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
The MCA offers a range of free and wildly interesting events in the cafe 
almost every Tuesday evening from October through April. Museum admission is 
free to everyone on Tuesdays so come early and visit the galleries and then 
stick around for constructive entertainment accompanied by a glass of wine or a 
cup of Joe and a tasty snack from Puck&#039;s Cafe.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A whimsical 
art party that unites artists of all skill levels. Not really an art class, not 
quite a party; it is a gathering for those who want to have a hands-on encounter 
with art. The MCA provides art supplies and participants bring ideas. There are 
special activities to guide participants through the evening of art making.

Third Tuesday of the month
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
The MCA offers a range of free and wildly interesting events in the cafe almost 
every Tuesday evening from October through April. Museum admission is free to 
everyone on Tuesdays so come early and visit the galleries and then stick around 
for constructive entertainment accompanied by a glass of wine or a cup of Joe 
and a tasty snack from Puck&#039;s Cafe.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
A grab bag of &amp;quot;un-lectures&amp;quot; about a myriad 
of topics that create a variety show-like evening of artist presentations 
curated by different groups from around Chicago.

The MCA documents contemporary visual culture through painting, sculpture, photography, video and film, and performance. Located in the heart of downtown Chicago, the MCA boasts a gift store, bookstore, restaurant, 300-seat theater, and a terraced sculpture garden with a great view of Lake Michigan.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Mission Statement&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The mission of the MCA is to be an innovative and compelling center of contemporary art where the public can directly experience the work and ideas of living artists, and understand the historical, social, and cultural context of the art of our time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Museum boldly interweaves exhibitions, performances, collections, and educational programs to excite, challenge, and illuminate our visitors and to provide insight into the creative process.&lt;br /&gt;

The MCA aspires to engage a broad and diverse audience, create a sense of community and be a place for contemplation, stimulation, and discussion about contemporary art and culture.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;   &lt;/div&gt;

&lt;em&gt;Visions from a Foxhole&lt;/em&gt; includes more than 40 works in pencil, ink, and oil created by William Foley, infantryman in World War II. Many come from the sketchbook he carried during the war; others show the reflections of a veteran over the decades after his service.  
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
This exhibit evokes the scarred winter landscape of the 94th Infantry Division&#039;s push to the Rhine, from shattered cities and blackened forests to the trenches where Foley and his fellow soldiers dug in for battle. There are also a number of personal vignettes of life on the front lines, as soldiers catch a chicken for dinner, take prisoners, explore a soap factory, and stand watch by a wrecked farmhouse. For a time, though his memories of the war were vivid, Foley could only recreate them in black and white. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
 The Pritzker Military Library is open from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday-Friday, and admission is free.

Since its invention, lithography has always been based in the idea that grease and water are mutually rejective and has always remained intimately connected to drawing and painting. Historically the image was created and printed from the surface of prepared limestone slabs but currently the modern ball ground aluminum plate frees the artist from many of the constraints of limestone while producing comparable printed effects. This course includes the theory, drawing techniques, processing, and printing of aluminum plate lithography. Color theory and multiple runs will also be reviewed. This class is open to students of all skill levels and will be taught by Chicago artist Richard Repasky. Class size is limited to 8 individuals. This class costs $300 including all materials except for paper and plates. Plates will be available on the first day of class. Open Studio time for the duration of the class is available for a $2 materials fee per visit.

Melinda Fries, Salem Collo-Julin, and Biggest Fags Ever (Zena Sakowski &amp;amp; Rob Kelly)
January 26 – March 6, 2010
Opening Reception: Wednesday, January 27, 5-8 pm

The Free Store is a nomadic, temporary free store that irregularly visits a variety of Chicagoland neighborhoods. The Free Store, open during all gallery hours, invites you to be involved: come to the store, bring stuff you want to give away, and take stuff that you want. There is no restriction on what you can take—you don’t have to trade or barter. Just take it.

The Free Store takes as inspiration the long-running gift-economy tradition of swap shops, free shops and other similarly named initiatives where materials and services are offered free of charge. Free stores had a brief heyday in the U.S. during the late sixties, with perhaps the most famous example being the free store run by the radical theater/community-action group the Diggers in the San Francisco Bay area. For links to recent examples of free shops visit The Free Store website: freestorechicago.org

The Free Store will be open for business during all related events (see below listing).

To be successful, WE NEED YOUR ITEMS OR SERVICES. Items can be dropped off at Gallery 400 during open hours. The Free Store organizers are always happy to accept donations (everything except for people, animals, and illegal/toxic substances).

Contact The Free Store directly: &lt;a href=&quot;mailto:free@freestorechicago.org&quot;&gt;free@freestorechicago.org&lt;/a&gt; or 773-562-1428.&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:UICgallery400@gmail.com&quot;&gt;UICgallery400@gmail.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://gallery400.blogspot.com/2010/01/two-upcoming-exhibitions-art-work-and.html&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://gallery400.blogspot.com/2010/01/two-upcoming-exhibitions-art-work-and.htm...&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

Nature and Science exhibition 
Reception: Thursday, Feb 11th from 5:00 to 7:30 p.m.

Learn the exciting processes of printing in color through mezzotint with Chicago-based artist, Connie Wolfe. In this course, you will specifically learn how to print reductive and multi-plate color prints using mezzotint as your starting point. Preparing mezzotint plates and using secondary tonal processes such as aquatint will be covered in this class. Students will learn how to mix color inks, how to transfer key plates to additional plates, how to print multiple colors, and how colors can work together to make visually dynamic images. Additionally, students will learn how to edition, how to prepare paper, and how to sign prints. This class is open to all skill levels, so previous mezzotint knowledge is not necessary. Class size is limited to 8 individuals. This class costs $300 including all materials except for paper and plates. 3” x 4” plates will be available on the first day of class. Open Studio time for the duration of the class is available for a $2 materials fee per visit.

Exhibit will run until March 31st; Free Admission &lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The exhibit “Resiliencia”, organized by the Instituto Cervantes and in collaboration with AECID and PHotoEspaña, presents various works from 10 young artists who participated in the 2009 edition of PHE Discoveries in Latin America. The works in this exhibit present diverse perspectives on society and its ability to adapt and survive while being affected by continuous fluctuations. In Latin America, these creative processes come about in the midst of social, economic, and political turmoil. “Resiliencia” presents the work of professionals who are exploring the changes happening all around them, as well as reflecting on the role of image in our society.&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:cultura@cervantes1.org&quot;&gt;cultura@cervantes1.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://chicago.cervantes.es&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://chicago.cervantes.es&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

‘Drawing the Line’ on Exhibit at BAC Through March 6&lt;br /&gt;
Opening Reception for National Show is Sun., Feb. 14&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(CHICAGO, Feb. 4, 2010) -- “Drawing the Line,” an exhibit of 32 works by 25 members of the Jewish Women Artists’ Network (JWAN), sub-caucus of the WCA , is on exhibit Feb. 5 through Mar. 6 at the Beverly Arts Center, 2407 W. 111th St. (111th Street south on Western Ave.), Chicago. The opening reception will be held Sun., Feb. 14, 2 – 4  PM . The reception and admission to the gallery are free. Gallery hours: 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., Mon. through Sat., 1 to 5 p.m. Sun. &lt;br /&gt;
Sarah Giller Nelson, Art Historian, Chicago, IL juried the exhibit. The works, on exhibit in the East Gallery, explore the theme of “drawing the line” in traditional and new media using literal, figurative and conceptual interpretations. &lt;br /&gt;
“Line denotes order, makes distinctions, determines limits and boundaries and limitations and risks,” wrote Fay Grajower, co-chair of JWAN National Exhibitions. “This exhibit examines some of these possibilities as each artist renders her own interpretation . . . and challenges both the artist and the viewer to question their lines.”&lt;br /&gt;
Artists whose works are on exhibit are: Gloria Askin, Baltimore,Md; Marilyn Banner, Takoma Park, Md.; Catherine Cajandig, Chicago.Ill; Emily Corbato, Plum Island, Mass.; Anne Doris-Eisner, Bethany, Conn.; Sally Duback, Mequon, Wisc.; Harriet Finck, East Orange, NJ; Karen Frostig, Newton, Mass.; Fay Grajower, Boston, Mass.; Susan Harmon, Sterling, Kan.; Wendy Sue Lamm, Los Angeles, Cal; Rona Lesser, Houston; K.A. Letts, Ann Arbor, Mich.; Margaret Parker, Ann Arbor, Mich.; Roxanne Phillips, St. Louis, Mo.; Launa D. Romoff, Los Angeles,Cal; Patricia Elliott Schappler, Bedford, NH; Debbie Schore, Teaneck, NJ; Beth Shadur, Highland Park, Ill.; Lorre Ann Slaw, Northbrook, Ill.; Simone Soltan, Chapel Hill, NC; Karen K. Weyandt, Atlanta, Ga.; and Marian Yap, Pacifica, Cal. &lt;br /&gt;
A full color catalogue is available for this show at the BAC, or by calling Carla Winterbottom, BAC Gallery Curator, 773-445-3838 ext. 203. &lt;br /&gt;
The Jewish Women Artists’ Network was founded by Jewish women artists at the 1991 National Women’s Caucus for Art (WCA) conference in Washington, DC as a forum within the larger art community. With a national membership, it is the only organization of professional Jewish women artists in the United States. The group exhibits at WCA national conferences, and has presented public programs and participated on panels at the conferences.  &lt;br /&gt;
The Women’s Caucus for Art was established in 1972and offers opportunities for women artists, art historians and educators to create and exhibit their work, to meet and exchange ideas, and to promote women’s greater participation in the art world. &lt;br /&gt;
JWAN exhibits have been held in Los Angeles, New York, Dallas, Boston and other cities.

As the body is digitally reflected and reborn, are we looking towards technology to experience ourselves in a redeemed form outside of human societal constructs? When technology captures kinetic energy, is our essence embodied in the pixilation, or is our “self” lost in the process? Through dynamic works by Luftwerk, OpenEnded Group, and Troika Ranch, as well as the Synchronous Objects web kiosk created by William Forsythe, Maria Palazzi, and Norah Zuniga Shaw, the exhibition brings forward exploratory ideas that push and pull our perceptions of the body and impulses to move beyond it into uncharted cyber territory.  

A series of related programs, including gallery talks, discussions and workshops will be offered throughout the exhibition. For more information, visit &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.colum.edu/deps&quot; title=&quot;www.colum.edu/deps&quot;&gt;www.colum.edu/deps&lt;/a&gt;. 

&quot;Digital Incarnate&quot; is co-curated by Alycia Scott and Sara Slawnik and presented by Columbia College Chicago’s: Department of Exhibition and Performance Spaces, The Dance Center, the Ellen Stone Belic Institute for the Study of Women and Gender in the Arts and Media and the Interactive Arts and Media Department.&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:sslawnik@colum.edu&quot;&gt;sslawnik@colum.edu&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.colum.edu/deps&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.colum.edu/deps&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

This exhibition, organized by the National Gallery of Art in Washington, DC, evokes the discreet world of individual collecting to tell a less familiar story of nineteenth-century art.&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:smart-museum@uchicago.edu&quot;&gt;smart-museum@uchicago.edu&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://smartmuseum.uchicago.edu/darkersideoflight&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://smartmuseum.uchicago.edu/darkersideoflight&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

A Savannah barber, Davis spent his free time carving a diverse but unified body of highly refined sculpture that reflects his deep faith, humor, and dignity. This retrospective features 109 pieces and is organized by Susan Crawley of the High Museum of Art, Atlanta, in association with King-Tisdell Cottage Foundation of Savannah. The title comes from Davis’s explanation of why he disliked parting with his work: “They’re my treasure. If I sold these, I’d be really poor.”&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:intuit@art.org&quot;&gt;intuit@art.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.art.org&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.art.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

Sacred Geometry: Art of the &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;Mandala&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span&gt;will be presented at Life Force Arts Center Gallery, 3148 N Lincoln Ave, Chicago from February 19 - March 31, 2010&lt;/span&gt;.
This art show explores contemporary artists&#039; creations of mandalas,
which artist Diogenes Lamarche defines as &amp;quot;visual compositions, usually
based in a circular pattern, that incorporate different symbolic and
geometric patterns that can lead to shifts in consciousness,
perspectives, and energy flow.&amp;quot; The exhibit includes &lt;span&gt;paintings, sculpture and mixed media and &lt;/span&gt;features a variety of approaches to the &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;mandala&lt;/span&gt;. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;span&gt;Admission is free and gallery hours are by appointment. For more information, contact 773-327-7224 or &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; href=&quot;http://www.lifeforcearts.org//&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;span&gt;www.LifeForceArts.org&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;. &lt;/span&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Wikipedia
says that in various spiritual traditions, mandalas may be employed for
focusing attention of aspirants and adepts, as a spiritual teaching
tool, for establishing a &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Temenos&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Temenos&quot;&gt;sacred space&lt;/a&gt;, and as an aid to &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meditation&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Meditation&quot;&gt;meditation&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trance&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Trance&quot;&gt;trance&lt;/a&gt; induction. In common use, &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;mandala&lt;/span&gt; has become a generic term for any plan, chart or geometric pattern that represents the &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cosmos&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Cosmos&quot;&gt;cosmos&lt;/a&gt; metaphysically or symbolically, a &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Macrocosm_and_microcosm&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Macrocosm and microcosm&quot;&gt;microcosm&lt;/a&gt; of the &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universe&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Universe&quot;&gt;Universe&lt;/a&gt; from the human perspective.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Pat Otto, one of the artists represented in Art of the &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;Mandala&lt;/span&gt;, is also an art teacher and art therapist. &lt;em&gt;&lt;span&gt;
She says, &amp;quot;My artwork comes from images and urges of psyche that
I notice and let surface. They merge with everyday life experiences,
and I bring them into form through working with physical materials,
such as wood, wax, paint and canvas. I enjoy facilitating art
experiences for others to creatively express themselves in a way that
is deeply intuitive and insightful.  I have found, in my own work and
in working with others, that using the mandala in its most basic
form, a circle with a center, creates a safe and sacred space for
expression.  As Carl Jung said, mandalas are a symbol for the Self
seeking wholeness, and are a vehicle for healing. Often, people are
found to spontaneously express images within a circle framework at
chaotic times in their lives.&amp;quot;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;em&gt; &lt;/em&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Another
artist in the show, Steven Blaine Adams, says, &amp;quot;Crystals grow in sacred
geometric patterns, and their properties have been used since ancient
times for healing and magical purposes. As an energy healer myself, I
help clients through using crystals to balance their physical, mental,
emotional and spiritual energy. These properties make crystals ideal
materials for creating sacred mandalas for use in meditation, and I am
making three crystal mandalas for this show: the Green Man, the Sri
Yantra and the Celtic Cross.&amp;quot; 
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;

Life Force Arts Center (LFAC), 3148 N Lincoln, Chicago, 
is Chicago’s  spiritual art gallery and performance space.Our mission is
creating spiritual awakening and transformation through the visual, 
literary and performing arts. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;left&quot;&gt;
The Center presents spiritually based dance, theater, music, performance art, authors, and visual &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;artists&lt;/span&gt;
of all spiritual traditions. LFAC defines spiritual art as art that  
flows from spiritual practice, art that strives to connect the audience 
with Spirit, and art that creates spiritual healing, transformation, or
awakening. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;
   
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
At LFAC, we recognize 
and nurture the fact that Spirit moves through an individual to create 
in many forms of professional practice: art, teaching and healing. 
Spiritual artists often are teachers and healers as well. LFAC is a 
place where the public (audiences, students, clients, participants) can 
partake of all the modalities in which a practitioner is inspired to 
create. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;
  
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
LFAC offers art exhibits, 
performances and spiritual workshops in our 1200 square foot Main Space.
Visit our Gift Shop to purchase artwork, CD;s and DVD&#039;s, jewelry, books
and other products of the artists, teachers and healers who present at 
our Center. The space is available for rental as well, and is perfect 
for workshops, meetings, parties yoga, dance, theater and other events. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Life
Force Arts Center opened in 2008, and is operated by Life Force Arts 
Foundation, which was founded in 1988 as a non-profit, tax exempt 501 
(c) 3 organization to present the   modern dance and performance work of
Joan Forest Mage. As Joan developed the deeper, spiritual aspects of 
her work as shamanic practice, the company grew to support the 
exploration of the art-spirituality connection.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;   &lt;/div&gt;
  &lt;/div&gt;

&lt;p&gt;
This March and April, Peter Patterson of &lt;em&gt;Patterson Glassworks&lt;/em&gt; in Mundelein, Illinois&lt;em&gt; &lt;/em&gt;is featured in the exhibition window &lt;em&gt;Waterworlds &lt;/em&gt;at the Illinois Artisans Shop, Chicago. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Patterson has worked with glass for over 25 years. He earned a BFA from the Cleveland School of Art in Cleveland, Ohio and has studied extensively at the Penland School of Craft in Penland, North Carolina. His unique use of material during the firing process has distinct visual results. The water-like depth of light is built from several surfaces of glass, color overlays, millefiori and gradually spaced bubbles. In &lt;em&gt;Waterworlds&lt;/em&gt;, Patterson uses a process he invented: incorporating phosphorus into the glass, making it glow in the dark. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&lt;em&gt;With my BFA from college majoring in illustration, I like to think of each of my pieces as an illustration. I can achieve this by pre-fusing some of my decoration or using different technique. &lt;/em&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&lt;em&gt;The inspiration for my different series comes from a variety of things including life experiences, scuba diving, working plant knowledge, graphic design and nature itself. I put these fluid motions of the water along with organic shapes derived from nature into my glass creations.&lt;/em&gt;  -Peter Patterson
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Peter Patterson is shown at galleries across the country and is in private collections worldwide. He is represented by the Illinois Artisans Shop, Chicago. All items on display are for sale. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
The Illinois Artisans Shop, a not-for-profit endeavor, is a showcase for art work created by the state&#039;s finest artisans. It provides an ongoing opportunity to view and purchase the best designed and crafted traditional, contemporary, ethnic and folk art made in Illinois. Illinois Artisans Shop, 100 W. Randolph, Ste. 2-200, 312-814-5321, Monday-Friday 9 - 5.

During the month of March, ART ON ARMITAGE: a window gallery will present Lindsay Obermeyer&#039;s A Glass Prairie, an installation that pays homage to the beauty of our natural landscape.  Fashioned from hundreds of beads and yards of wire, each wildflower is a facsimile of those native to the Midwest.  A Glass Prairie will grow over the duration of the exhibition as new flowers are added to the installation each week, filling the space with color and hope for our fragile ecosystem.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;

A living legend...&lt;br /&gt;
March 2, 2010 thru April 9, 2010&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Nevica Project proudly presents &lt;span&gt;Warren MacKenzie - &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;em&gt;A living legend...&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Warren MacKenzie (b. 1924) is recognized as a true master of 20th
Century ceramic art. Through his traditional wheel-thrown vessels, Mr.
MacKenzie&#039;s pottery embodies strong influences from Bernard Leach and
Shoji Hamada.  His work consistently represents the confidence of where
the potter’s hand is felt and touched through the utilitarian pots that
are produced for use in everyday life.&lt;br /&gt;
This exhibition will feature over 50 different stamped pieces created by this legendary potter.&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:info@theNEVICAproject.com&quot;&gt;info@theNEVICAproject.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.theNEVICAproject.com&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.theNEVICAproject.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

Artistssuch as graphic designers, illustrators, photographers and many others are allcrucial in creating this environment from the designs on the merchandise to thepromotions for the event. The visual elements that often fade into thebackground- band t-shirts, posters, album art, post-event photos, fashion,advertisements and fliers - are now the focus,givingviewers access to the excess.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:mherrera@colum.edu&quot;&gt;mherrera@colum.edu&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-event-location&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Event Location&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-text field-field-venue&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Venue:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;C33 Gallery.

 <title>Weekend Workshop: Capturing the Ragdale House through Words and Images</title>

Under the exciting direction of author Janet Desaulniers and photographer Jane Fulton Alt, students will spend time discovering their creative voice while responding through pictures and words to the Ragdale House and Grounds. 

All levels of photography and writing will be accepted.  The workshop, however, is not designed for students looking for instruction of how to use their equipment, their computers or Photoshop.  A working knowledge of students’ cameras and equipment is required.  Students will be working digitally so they are expected to bring a digital camera, laptop and printer, if possible.  

Join us for the last opportunity to be and create in the Ragdale House with two award-winning Ragdale alumni before it closes for a full year!

Overnight workshop participants will stay in the historic Ragdale House or the Barnhouse. Daytrippers are welcome for a reduced fee.  The workshop will begin at 5pm on Friday and end at 5pm on Sunday.  

Rooms are single occupancy, with some twin beds and some doubles.  Private baths are available on a first come, first served basis.  Workshop is limited to 16 participants; 11 overnight, 5 daytime – REGISTER EARLY!

Overnight / Ragdale House                  $595.00
Overnight / Barnhouse                        $525.00

&lt;span&gt;The
International Museum of Surgical Science (IMSS) presents &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Blooms, Efflorescence, and Other
Dermatological Embellishments&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;—an exhibition of jewelry and photography
by Lauren Kalman—and &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;You thought that you were alone but I caught
your bullet just in time&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;—a sculptural installation by Annie
Heckman—from March 5 through May 21, 2010. These exhibitions, the latest in the
Museum’s ongoing “Anatomy in the Gallery” program, use grotesque ornamentation
to contrast the idealized elements of conventional bodily imagery with the
realities of individual, physical bodies.&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p class=&quot;MsoBodyText2&quot;&gt;

&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span&gt;Blooms,
Efflorescence, and Other Dermatological Embellishments&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span&gt;
includes Kalman’s jeweled adornments that replicate the skin infections,
lesions, and sores caused by medical conditions such as acne, cancer, herpes,
and syphilis, as well as photographs of models wearing these adornments. &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;You
thought that you were alone but I caught your bullet just in time&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;
comprises glow-in-the-dark house-of-cards structures built of interlocking cut
paper pieces, each drawn upon in graphite and coated with phosphorescent paint by
Chicago artist Heckman to resemble a human or animal bone. The ongoing “Anatomy
in the Gallery” program at IMSS showcases paired exhibitions of medically
inspired contemporary art in the context of the Museum’s historical exhibits
and artifacts, all housed in a landmark turn-of-the-century mansion on Lake
Shore Drive.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:info@imss.org&quot;&gt;info@imss.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.imss.org/anatgallery.htm&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.imss.org/anatgallery.htm&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

&lt;strong&gt;CARNIVAL OF CURIOSITY&lt;br /&gt;
Works by the Priestesses of the Holy Mountain
&lt;/strong&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Holy Mountain is a woman owned and run studio for BDSM (bondage discipline/ dominance submission/ sadomasochism) located in the West Loop.  For the first time since its inception in September 2008, it is opening its doors to the public for a premiere art exhibition.  This debut event will feature the work of the many women who rent the space for Pro Domination.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Carnival of Curiosity is intended to bring a new audience into an environment they might not otherwise explore, and to showcase the talents of a collective of Pro Dominas who already contribute to Chicago’s artistic zeitgeist in their own ways.  The overall tone is bold, celebratory and unabashed with a few very challenging works in the mix.  
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
On the walls you’ll see the photography of Mistress Kit, the “official” photographer of Holy Mountain who attends events and forms artist/muse relationships with the lovely ladies who frequent the space.  Her work is reminiscent of 1970s candids, printed in black and white with an air of voyeuristic titillation.  
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Also featured are paintings by Mistress Yani.  Her busy mural-like works on paper look like they are taunting the viewer with bright neon colors and graffiti splashes of metallic paint.  Bouncing naked clown-face characters emerge from jazzy chaos.  
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Continuing the playful mood Miss Panic’s paintings on wood and canvas burst with electric blues and hot pinks.  Human (or human-like) faces greet the viewer with poppy confidence.  
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Quietest among the works on paper, but also the most detailed, are Mistress Vashti’s large drawings.  “No Moonlight” has an eerie glow and “3 Moons” is lush and tactile.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
In the 3D realm, Lil’ Princess (featured on Jerry Springer for her clown sex fetish) charms us with sparkling sequins, googly-eyes, and ruffles, toying with the idea of “fetish” in the original sense of the word.  Her eight dolls are reminiscent of the works of Haitian artists such as Peirrot Barra.  Their plastic heads sit atop elaborate dresses - little goddess-like figures adorned with pills, tiny babies, logos, flowers and cigarettes.  
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Much of the art in Carnival of Curiosity is wearable.  Mistress Alice takes mad millinery to new levels, and aynia expresses her inner demons through hand-crafted masks.  Mistress Deliya carefully crochets bondage items such as arm binders, hoods, and (ahem)“package” cozies.  And though not wearable, Mistress Alice’s drawings based upon outlandish costume designs certainly command attention. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Some of the artwork will be utterly edible.  A giant delectable human birthday cake will fill one corner of the main playroom as the performers of Cabaret of the Nameless splosh themselves into a giant heap of sexy sugar sweetness.  Other pastries and vegan baked goods will be available to sample and purchase as well.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
The carnivorous side of carnival is covered by Mistress Lucinda’s Meat Market series – an aesthetically intriguing group of photographs taken on the streets of Safi in Morocco.   She also takes a stab at the carnal with her porno collage series and the challenging humor of her Baby Book, which combines images of infant innocence with fully erect man meat.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
For those with a love for the literary, Lily Hex (a.k.a. Evil Tart) will release her new book, a hardback edition of poetry and short stories about lovers. Holy Mountain founder Kristie Alshaibi will also have some of her own art available for sale, including a collaborative book made with her husband Usama.  A History of Flying Vaginas is a stencilprinted limited edition written in the form of a children’s book.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
And finally Holy Mountain will be celebrating the Pre-Release of its first DVD compilation, Solar Anus Cinema, short films by Usama Alshaibi.  Alshaibi has been called the “contemporary master of transgressive cinema” and some of the films on the DVD feature the Priestesses of Holy Mountain.  Copies will be available for purchase at the opening reception.
&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;strong&gt;Collection&lt;/strong&gt; 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Sculpture. Drawing and Photography by Abby Ferguson and Joanna Schuman&lt;/strong&gt;. 
&lt;/p&gt;
SHOWING March 5 - March 27 2010&lt;br /&gt;
Opening Reception: Friday, March 5, 2010 (7-11pm)
&lt;p&gt;
&amp;nbsp;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
The objects we gather and create are steeped in our personal and
collective history. Collection explores the sculptural works and
photographs of Abby Ferguson and Joanna Lynn Schuman as they examine
the roles these historical narratives play in collections and how
setting and sentiment can affect their inherent and perceived value.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Joanna Schuman spent the last year collecting objects that she was
drawn to and that would later be arranged and photographed. Before they
reach this stage the objects are evaluated through a series of
self-imposed rules that Schuman has set up. These rules lay the
groundwork for determining the value of the object. Collection in this
sense is a highly personal one and what unfolds is a beautiful display
of quirky objects, insights into an individuals taste and the
places/things they cherish.  Schuman studied film, photography and the
visual arts at Ithaca College in Ithaca, New York.  She currently lives
in Chicago and will be pursuing a masters degree in art therapy. She
likes cats.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Abby Ferguson creates a world where her sculptural objects and
meticulous drawings exist on the edge of scientific imagination.
Ferguson bends the truth with her use of “taxidermy”, scientific
illustrations and butterfly collection boxes. Here the collection is
catalogued and labeled. We can digest it as a selection of objects that
inform us of their value by their orderly arrangement, presentation and
perceived / actual existence. Ferguson attended the Columbus College of
Art and Design where she graduated with a BFA in Fine Art. She
currently resides in Chicago and is a freelance artist. She likes dogs.

&lt;p&gt;
{
Fill in the Blank } was formed out of the desire to create a space
where art can be presented, discussed, created, performed, written,
shared, and taught on an accessible level. We wanted to open a space
that fosters creativity in our community, which is so full of talent
but perhaps lacking in creative outlets. Part artist collective, part
gallery, we plan to feature a wide range of artistic works each month
including fine art, craft, film, and music.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;   &lt;/div&gt;
  &lt;/div&gt;

Reflets&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;La Poesie Des Affiches&lt;/em&gt;. In &lt;em&gt;Les Reflets&lt;/em&gt; the images explore 
Aurinko&#039;s fascination with the artificial beauty and frozen perfection 
of mannequins and captured faces that inhabit store windows and gaze 
from billboards and advertisements. &lt;em&gt;La Poesie Des Affiches&lt;/em&gt; is a 
continuation of graffiti-based work begun in Madrid, New York and Paris 
years ago. Aurinko examines the layering of signage that appears in 
large cities, often plastered over &amp;quot;post no bills&amp;quot; signs, in languages 
that mirror the culture of a country.&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:bryna.shields@chicagophoto.org&quot;&gt;bryna.shields@chicagophoto.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.chicagophoto.org&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.chicagophoto.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-event-location&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Event Location&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-text field-field-venue&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Venue:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;Chicago Photography Center&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-text field-field-phone&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Phone Number:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;773-549-1631&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-postal field-field-postal-contact&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Address:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3301 N Lincoln Ave&lt;br /&gt;Chicago, IL 60657&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://maps.google.com/maps?q=3301+N+Lincoln+Ave%2C+Chicago%2C+IL%2C+60657&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Google Map&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-text field-field-neighborhood&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Neighborhood:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;Lakeview&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/fieldset&gt;

Coming from different regions and educational backgrounds, the artists &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;C&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;- Sui Jianguo, Zhan Wang, Shen Shaomin, and Chen Wenling &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;C&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt; each employ different materials and visual styles, but they also show commonalities.&lt;span&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;Each work is intensely engaged with important contemporary issues such as the energy crisis, materialism, and globalization.&lt;span&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;They also share inspiration from traditional Chinese art, commercial culture, folk art, and industrial machinery as they explore ways to react to a public space. Contemporary Sculptures from China is presented by the Chicago Department of Cultural Affairs, Millennium Park, in cooperation with Millennium Park Inc., and is sponsored by The Boeing Company with support from the Richard H.

The first Tuesday of the month 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
The MCA offers a range of free and wildly interesting events in the cafe 
almost every Tuesday evening from October through April. Museum admission is 
free to everyone on Tuesdays so come early and visit the galleries and then 
stick around for constructive entertainment accompanied by a glass of wine or a 
cup of Joe and a tasty snack from Puck&#039;s Cafe.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A whimsical 
art party that unites artists of all skill levels. Not really an art class, not 
quite a party; it is a gathering for those who want to have a hands-on encounter 
with art. The MCA provides art supplies and participants bring ideas. There are 
special activities to guide participants through the evening of art making.

&lt;em&gt;Visions from a Foxhole&lt;/em&gt; includes more than 40 works in pencil, ink, and oil created by William Foley, infantryman in World War II. Many come from the sketchbook he carried during the war; others show the reflections of a veteran over the decades after his service.  
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
This exhibit evokes the scarred winter landscape of the 94th Infantry Division&#039;s push to the Rhine, from shattered cities and blackened forests to the trenches where Foley and his fellow soldiers dug in for battle. There are also a number of personal vignettes of life on the front lines, as soldiers catch a chicken for dinner, take prisoners, explore a soap factory, and stand watch by a wrecked farmhouse. For a time, though his memories of the war were vivid, Foley could only recreate them in black and white. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
 The Pritzker Military Library is open from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday-Friday, and admission is free.

Since its invention, lithography has always been based in the idea that grease and water are mutually rejective and has always remained intimately connected to drawing and painting. Historically the image was created and printed from the surface of prepared limestone slabs but currently the modern ball ground aluminum plate frees the artist from many of the constraints of limestone while producing comparable printed effects. This course includes the theory, drawing techniques, processing, and printing of aluminum plate lithography. Color theory and multiple runs will also be reviewed. This class is open to students of all skill levels and will be taught by Chicago artist Richard Repasky. Class size is limited to 8 individuals. This class costs $300 including all materials except for paper and plates. Plates will be available on the first day of class. Open Studio time for the duration of the class is available for a $2 materials fee per visit.

Melinda Fries, Salem Collo-Julin, and Biggest Fags Ever (Zena Sakowski &amp;amp; Rob Kelly)
January 26 – March 6, 2010
Opening Reception: Wednesday, January 27, 5-8 pm

The Free Store is a nomadic, temporary free store that irregularly visits a variety of Chicagoland neighborhoods. The Free Store, open during all gallery hours, invites you to be involved: come to the store, bring stuff you want to give away, and take stuff that you want. There is no restriction on what you can take—you don’t have to trade or barter. Just take it.

The Free Store takes as inspiration the long-running gift-economy tradition of swap shops, free shops and other similarly named initiatives where materials and services are offered free of charge. Free stores had a brief heyday in the U.S. during the late sixties, with perhaps the most famous example being the free store run by the radical theater/community-action group the Diggers in the San Francisco Bay area. For links to recent examples of free shops visit The Free Store website: freestorechicago.org

The Free Store will be open for business during all related events (see below listing).

To be successful, WE NEED YOUR ITEMS OR SERVICES. Items can be dropped off at Gallery 400 during open hours. The Free Store organizers are always happy to accept donations (everything except for people, animals, and illegal/toxic substances).

Contact The Free Store directly: &lt;a href=&quot;mailto:free@freestorechicago.org&quot;&gt;free@freestorechicago.org&lt;/a&gt; or 773-562-1428.&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:UICgallery400@gmail.com&quot;&gt;UICgallery400@gmail.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://gallery400.blogspot.com/2010/01/two-upcoming-exhibitions-art-work-and.html&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://gallery400.blogspot.com/2010/01/two-upcoming-exhibitions-art-work-and.htm...&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

Learn the exciting processes of printing in color through mezzotint with Chicago-based artist, Connie Wolfe. In this course, you will specifically learn how to print reductive and multi-plate color prints using mezzotint as your starting point. Preparing mezzotint plates and using secondary tonal processes such as aquatint will be covered in this class. Students will learn how to mix color inks, how to transfer key plates to additional plates, how to print multiple colors, and how colors can work together to make visually dynamic images. Additionally, students will learn how to edition, how to prepare paper, and how to sign prints. This class is open to all skill levels, so previous mezzotint knowledge is not necessary. Class size is limited to 8 individuals. This class costs $300 including all materials except for paper and plates. 3” x 4” plates will be available on the first day of class. Open Studio time for the duration of the class is available for a $2 materials fee per visit.

The exhibit “Resiliencia”, organized by the Instituto Cervantes and in collaboration with AECID and PHotoEspaña, presents various works from 10 young artists who participated in the 2009 edition of PHE Discoveries in Latin America. The works in this exhibit present diverse perspectives on society and its ability to adapt and survive while being affected by continuous fluctuations. In Latin America, these creative processes come about in the midst of social, economic, and political turmoil. “Resiliencia” presents the work of professionals who are exploring the changes happening all around them, as well as reflecting on the role of image in our society.&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:cultura@cervantes1.org&quot;&gt;cultura@cervantes1.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://chicago.cervantes.es&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://chicago.cervantes.es&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

‘Drawing the Line’ on Exhibit at BAC Through March 6&lt;br /&gt;
Opening Reception for National Show is Sun., Feb. 14&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
(CHICAGO, Feb. 4, 2010) -- “Drawing the Line,” an exhibit of 32 works by 25 members of the Jewish Women Artists’ Network (JWAN), sub-caucus of the WCA , is on exhibit Feb. 5 through Mar. 6 at the Beverly Arts Center, 2407 W. 111th St. (111th Street south on Western Ave.), Chicago. The opening reception will be held Sun., Feb. 14, 2 – 4  PM . The reception and admission to the gallery are free. Gallery hours: 10 a.m. to 6 p.m., Mon. through Sat., 1 to 5 p.m. Sun. &lt;br /&gt;
Sarah Giller Nelson, Art Historian, Chicago, IL juried the exhibit. The works, on exhibit in the East Gallery, explore the theme of “drawing the line” in traditional and new media using literal, figurative and conceptual interpretations. &lt;br /&gt;
“Line denotes order, makes distinctions, determines limits and boundaries and limitations and risks,” wrote Fay Grajower, co-chair of JWAN National Exhibitions. “This exhibit examines some of these possibilities as each artist renders her own interpretation . . . and challenges both the artist and the viewer to question their lines.”&lt;br /&gt;
Artists whose works are on exhibit are: Gloria Askin, Baltimore,Md; Marilyn Banner, Takoma Park, Md.; Catherine Cajandig, Chicago.Ill; Emily Corbato, Plum Island, Mass.; Anne Doris-Eisner, Bethany, Conn.; Sally Duback, Mequon, Wisc.; Harriet Finck, East Orange, NJ; Karen Frostig, Newton, Mass.; Fay Grajower, Boston, Mass.; Susan Harmon, Sterling, Kan.; Wendy Sue Lamm, Los Angeles, Cal; Rona Lesser, Houston; K.A. Letts, Ann Arbor, Mich.; Margaret Parker, Ann Arbor, Mich.; Roxanne Phillips, St. Louis, Mo.; Launa D. Romoff, Los Angeles,Cal; Patricia Elliott Schappler, Bedford, NH; Debbie Schore, Teaneck, NJ; Beth Shadur, Highland Park, Ill.; Lorre Ann Slaw, Northbrook, Ill.; Simone Soltan, Chapel Hill, NC; Karen K. Weyandt, Atlanta, Ga.; and Marian Yap, Pacifica, Cal. &lt;br /&gt;
A full color catalogue is available for this show at the BAC, or by calling Carla Winterbottom, BAC Gallery Curator, 773-445-3838 ext. 203. &lt;br /&gt;
The Jewish Women Artists’ Network was founded by Jewish women artists at the 1991 National Women’s Caucus for Art (WCA) conference in Washington, DC as a forum within the larger art community. With a national membership, it is the only organization of professional Jewish women artists in the United States. The group exhibits at WCA national conferences, and has presented public programs and participated on panels at the conferences.  &lt;br /&gt;

As the body is digitally reflected and reborn, are we looking towards technology to experience ourselves in a redeemed form outside of human societal constructs? When technology captures kinetic energy, is our essence embodied in the pixilation, or is our “self” lost in the process? Through dynamic works by Luftwerk, OpenEnded Group, and Troika Ranch, as well as the Synchronous Objects web kiosk created by William Forsythe, Maria Palazzi, and Norah Zuniga Shaw, the exhibition brings forward exploratory ideas that push and pull our perceptions of the body and impulses to move beyond it into uncharted cyber territory.

This exhibition, organized by the National Gallery of Art in Washington, DC, evokes the discreet world of individual collecting to tell a less familiar story of nineteenth-century art.&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:smart-museum@uchicago.edu&quot;&gt;smart-museum@uchicago.edu&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://smartmuseum.uchicago.edu/darkersideoflight&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://smartmuseum.uchicago.edu/darkersideoflight&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

A Savannah barber, Davis spent his free time carving a diverse but unified body of highly refined sculpture that reflects his deep faith, humor, and dignity. This retrospective features 109 pieces and is organized by Susan Crawley of the High Museum of Art, Atlanta, in association with King-Tisdell Cottage Foundation of Savannah. The title comes from Davis’s explanation of why he disliked parting with his work: “They’re my treasure. If I sold these, I’d be really poor.”&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:intuit@art.org&quot;&gt;intuit@art.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.art.org&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.art.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

Sacred Geometry: Art of the &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;Mandala&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span&gt;will be presented at Life Force Arts Center Gallery, 3148 N Lincoln Ave, Chicago from February 19 - March 31, 2010&lt;/span&gt;.
This art show explores contemporary artists&#039; creations of mandalas,
which artist Diogenes Lamarche defines as &amp;quot;visual compositions, usually
based in a circular pattern, that incorporate different symbolic and
geometric patterns that can lead to shifts in consciousness,
perspectives, and energy flow.&amp;quot; The exhibit includes &lt;span&gt;paintings, sculpture and mixed media and &lt;/span&gt;features a variety of approaches to the &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;mandala&lt;/span&gt;. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;span&gt;Admission is free and gallery hours are by appointment. For more information, contact 773-327-7224 or &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; href=&quot;http://www.lifeforcearts.org//&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;span&gt;www.LifeForceArts.org&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;. &lt;/span&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Wikipedia
says that in various spiritual traditions, mandalas may be employed for
focusing attention of aspirants and adepts, as a spiritual teaching
tool, for establishing a &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Temenos&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Temenos&quot;&gt;sacred space&lt;/a&gt;, and as an aid to &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meditation&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Meditation&quot;&gt;meditation&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trance&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Trance&quot;&gt;trance&lt;/a&gt; induction. In common use, &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;mandala&lt;/span&gt; has become a generic term for any plan, chart or geometric pattern that represents the &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cosmos&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Cosmos&quot;&gt;cosmos&lt;/a&gt; metaphysically or symbolically, a &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Macrocosm_and_microcosm&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Macrocosm and microcosm&quot;&gt;microcosm&lt;/a&gt; of the &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universe&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Universe&quot;&gt;Universe&lt;/a&gt; from the human perspective.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Pat Otto, one of the artists represented in Art of the &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;Mandala&lt;/span&gt;, is also an art teacher and art therapist. &lt;em&gt;&lt;span&gt;
She says, &amp;quot;My artwork comes from images and urges of psyche that
I notice and let surface. They merge with everyday life experiences,
and I bring them into form through working with physical materials,
such as wood, wax, paint and canvas. I enjoy facilitating art
experiences for others to creatively express themselves in a way that
is deeply intuitive and insightful.  I have found, in my own work and
in working with others, that using the mandala in its most basic
form, a circle with a center, creates a safe and sacred space for
expression.  As Carl Jung said, mandalas are a symbol for the Self
seeking wholeness, and are a vehicle for healing. Often, people are
found to spontaneously express images within a circle framework at
chaotic times in their lives.&amp;quot;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;em&gt; &lt;/em&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Another
artist in the show, Steven Blaine Adams, says, &amp;quot;Crystals grow in sacred
geometric patterns, and their properties have been used since ancient
times for healing and magical purposes. As an energy healer myself, I
help clients through using crystals to balance their physical, mental,
emotional and spiritual energy. These properties make crystals ideal
materials for creating sacred mandalas for use in meditation, and I am
making three crystal mandalas for this show: the Green Man, the Sri
Yantra and the Celtic Cross.&amp;quot; 
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;

Life Force Arts Center (LFAC), 3148 N Lincoln, Chicago, 
is Chicago’s  spiritual art gallery and performance space.Our mission is
creating spiritual awakening and transformation through the visual, 
literary and performing arts. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;left&quot;&gt;
The Center presents spiritually based dance, theater, music, performance art, authors, and visual &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;artists&lt;/span&gt;
of all spiritual traditions. LFAC defines spiritual art as art that  
flows from spiritual practice, art that strives to connect the audience 
with Spirit, and art that creates spiritual healing, transformation, or
awakening. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;
   
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
At LFAC, we recognize 
and nurture the fact that Spirit moves through an individual to create 
in many forms of professional practice: art, teaching and healing. 
Spiritual artists often are teachers and healers as well. LFAC is a 
place where the public (audiences, students, clients, participants) can 
partake of all the modalities in which a practitioner is inspired to 
create. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;
  
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
LFAC offers art exhibits, 
performances and spiritual workshops in our 1200 square foot Main Space.
Visit our Gift Shop to purchase artwork, CD;s and DVD&#039;s, jewelry, books
and other products of the artists, teachers and healers who present at 
our Center. The space is available for rental as well, and is perfect 
for workshops, meetings, parties yoga, dance, theater and other events. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Life
Force Arts Center opened in 2008, and is operated by Life Force Arts 
Foundation, which was founded in 1988 as a non-profit, tax exempt 501 
(c) 3 organization to present the   modern dance and performance work of
Joan Forest Mage. As Joan developed the deeper, spiritual aspects of 
her work as shamanic practice, the company grew to support the 
exploration of the art-spirituality connection.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;   &lt;/div&gt;
  &lt;/div&gt;

&lt;p&gt;
This March and April, Peter Patterson of &lt;em&gt;Patterson Glassworks&lt;/em&gt; in Mundelein, Illinois&lt;em&gt; &lt;/em&gt;is featured in the exhibition window &lt;em&gt;Waterworlds &lt;/em&gt;at the Illinois Artisans Shop, Chicago. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Patterson has worked with glass for over 25 years. He earned a BFA from the Cleveland School of Art in Cleveland, Ohio and has studied extensively at the Penland School of Craft in Penland, North Carolina. His unique use of material during the firing process has distinct visual results. The water-like depth of light is built from several surfaces of glass, color overlays, millefiori and gradually spaced bubbles. In &lt;em&gt;Waterworlds&lt;/em&gt;, Patterson uses a process he invented: incorporating phosphorus into the glass, making it glow in the dark. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&lt;em&gt;With my BFA from college majoring in illustration, I like to think of each of my pieces as an illustration. I can achieve this by pre-fusing some of my decoration or using different technique. &lt;/em&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&lt;em&gt;The inspiration for my different series comes from a variety of things including life experiences, scuba diving, working plant knowledge, graphic design and nature itself. I put these fluid motions of the water along with organic shapes derived from nature into my glass creations.&lt;/em&gt;  -Peter Patterson
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Peter Patterson is shown at galleries across the country and is in private collections worldwide. He is represented by the Illinois Artisans Shop, Chicago. All items on display are for sale. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
The Illinois Artisans Shop, a not-for-profit endeavor, is a showcase for art work created by the state&#039;s finest artisans. It provides an ongoing opportunity to view and purchase the best designed and crafted traditional, contemporary, ethnic and folk art made in Illinois. Illinois Artisans Shop, 100 W. Randolph, Ste. 2-200, 312-814-5321, Monday-Friday 9 - 5.

During the month of March, ART ON ARMITAGE: a window gallery will present Lindsay Obermeyer&#039;s A Glass Prairie, an installation that pays homage to the beauty of our natural landscape.  Fashioned from hundreds of beads and yards of wire, each wildflower is a facsimile of those native to the Midwest.  A Glass Prairie will grow over the duration of the exhibition as new flowers are added to the installation each week, filling the space with color and hope for our fragile ecosystem.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
The public is invited to an &lt;strong&gt;artist&#039;s reception &lt;span class=&quot;yshortcuts&quot;&gt;on Sunday March
7th, from 4pm&lt;/span&gt; to 6pm.&lt;/strong&gt;

A living legend...&lt;br /&gt;
March 2, 2010 thru April 9, 2010&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Nevica Project proudly presents &lt;span&gt;Warren MacKenzie - &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;em&gt;A living legend...&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Warren MacKenzie (b. 1924) is recognized as a true master of 20th
Century ceramic art. Through his traditional wheel-thrown vessels, Mr.
MacKenzie&#039;s pottery embodies strong influences from Bernard Leach and
Shoji Hamada.  His work consistently represents the confidence of where
the potter’s hand is felt and touched through the utilitarian pots that
are produced for use in everyday life.&lt;br /&gt;
This exhibition will feature over 50 different stamped pieces created by this legendary potter.&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:info@theNEVICAproject.com&quot;&gt;info@theNEVICAproject.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.theNEVICAproject.com&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.theNEVICAproject.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

While the focal point of a concert is the perform­ers, a plethora ofvisual elements are involved in creating and enhancing the experience. Artistssuch as graphic designers, illustrators, photographers and many others are allcrucial in creating this environment from the designs on the merchandise to thepromotions for the event. The visual elements that often fade into thebackground- band t-shirts, posters, album art, post-event photos, fashion,advertisements and fliers - are now the focus,givingviewers access to the excess.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:mherrera@colum.edu&quot;&gt;mherrera@colum.edu&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-event-location&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Event Location&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-text field-field-venue&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Venue:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;C33 Gallery.

 <title>Weekend Workshop: Capturing the Ragdale House through Words and Images</title>

Under the exciting direction of author Janet Desaulniers and photographer Jane Fulton Alt, students will spend time discovering their creative voice while responding through pictures and words to the Ragdale House and Grounds. 

All levels of photography and writing will be accepted.  The workshop, however, is not designed for students looking for instruction of how to use their equipment, their computers or Photoshop.  A working knowledge of students’ cameras and equipment is required.  Students will be working digitally so they are expected to bring a digital camera, laptop and printer, if possible.  

Join us for the last opportunity to be and create in the Ragdale House with two award-winning Ragdale alumni before it closes for a full year!

Overnight workshop participants will stay in the historic Ragdale House or the Barnhouse. Daytrippers are welcome for a reduced fee.  The workshop will begin at 5pm on Friday and end at 5pm on Sunday.  

Rooms are single occupancy, with some twin beds and some doubles.  Private baths are available on a first come, first served basis.  Workshop is limited to 16 participants; 11 overnight, 5 daytime – REGISTER EARLY!

Overnight / Ragdale House                  $595.00
Overnight / Barnhouse                        $525.00

&lt;span&gt;The
International Museum of Surgical Science (IMSS) presents &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Blooms, Efflorescence, and Other
Dermatological Embellishments&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;—an exhibition of jewelry and photography
by Lauren Kalman—and &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;You thought that you were alone but I caught
your bullet just in time&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;—a sculptural installation by Annie
Heckman—from March 5 through May 21, 2010. These exhibitions, the latest in the
Museum’s ongoing “Anatomy in the Gallery” program, use grotesque ornamentation
to contrast the idealized elements of conventional bodily imagery with the
realities of individual, physical bodies.&lt;/span&gt;

includes Kalman’s jeweled adornments that replicate the skin infections,
lesions, and sores caused by medical conditions such as acne, cancer, herpes,
and syphilis, as well as photographs of models wearing these adornments. &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;You
thought that you were alone but I caught your bullet just in time&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;
comprises glow-in-the-dark house-of-cards structures built of interlocking cut
paper pieces, each drawn upon in graphite and coated with phosphorescent paint by
Chicago artist Heckman to resemble a human or animal bone. The ongoing “Anatomy
in the Gallery” program at IMSS showcases paired exhibitions of medically
inspired contemporary art in the context of the Museum’s historical exhibits
and artifacts, all housed in a landmark turn-of-the-century mansion on Lake
Shore Drive.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:info@imss.org&quot;&gt;info@imss.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.imss.org/anatgallery.htm&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.imss.org/anatgallery.htm&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

Reflets&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;La Poesie Des Affiches&lt;/em&gt;. In &lt;em&gt;Les Reflets&lt;/em&gt; the images explore 
Aurinko&#039;s fascination with the artificial beauty and frozen perfection 
of mannequins and captured faces that inhabit store windows and gaze 
from billboards and advertisements. &lt;em&gt;La Poesie Des Affiches&lt;/em&gt; is a 
continuation of graffiti-based work begun in Madrid, New York and Paris 
years ago. Aurinko examines the layering of signage that appears in 
large cities, often plastered over &amp;quot;post no bills&amp;quot; signs, in languages 
that mirror the culture of a country.&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:bryna.shields@chicagophoto.org&quot;&gt;bryna.shields@chicagophoto.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.chicagophoto.org&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.chicagophoto.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-event-location&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Event Location&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-text field-field-venue&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Venue:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;Chicago Photography Center&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-text field-field-phone&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Phone Number:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;773-549-1631&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-postal field-field-postal-contact&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Address:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3301 N Lincoln Ave&lt;br /&gt;Chicago, IL 60657&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://maps.google.com/maps?q=3301+N+Lincoln+Ave%2C+Chicago%2C+IL%2C+60657&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Google Map&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-text field-field-neighborhood&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Neighborhood:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;Lakeview&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/fieldset&gt;

Chris Heisinger is an artist specializing in stained glass mosaics. Born and raised in Chicago, Illinois, Chris &lt;br /&gt;
has always found ways to express herself with her artwork. While attending Northwestern University, &lt;br /&gt;
she studied the Arts and Crafts movement, Native American and Chinese art history that brings a unique &lt;br /&gt;
flavor to her art pieces. &lt;br /&gt;
Over the years, Chris has worked in acrylics, ceramics, photography, stained glass and mosaics. While &lt;br /&gt;
working artistically in many media, she came back to creating artwork with glass. Since the late 1980’s &lt;br /&gt;
she has developed her artistic style through stained glass and began creating stained glass mosaics in &lt;br /&gt;
2002. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Simply Chicago Art, showcases gifted local area artists and help the community discover these incredibly talented individuals.  Using their work as inspiration, Simply Chicago Art creates an experience within the gallery that is rewarding and enjoyable for the artists and clientele.&lt;br /&gt;

unite artists and communities in partnership to produce high quality public art
and to extend and transform the tradition of collaborative community involved
public artwork.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span&gt; &lt;/span&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&lt;span&gt;In 1970, a
group of artists concerned with the relationship of art to society organized to
form Chicago Mural Group, later renamed Chicago Public Art Group. Initially a
mural-based cooperative, CPAG broadened to include mosaics, sculpture,
landscape design, and sponsorship of workshops and symposiums. Since 1970,
Chicago has been on the forefront of community involvement in the creation of
public art projects. This community arts movement quickly gained momentum
around the country and around the world with the help of the Chicago Public Art
Group. CPAG artists then and now have assisted Chicago neighborhoods,
organizations, and individuals in expressing their identity, values, and
creativity by making murals, banners, mosaics, sculptures, and parks. The basis
for the success of the organization has been the vision and commitment of the
professional artists who have sustained CPAG with their skills and leadership.
Chicago Public Art Group artists are superior listeners who sensitively blend
community needs and values with visual arts programming.&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;

Chris Heisinger is an artist specializing in stained glass mosaics. Born and raised in Chicago, Illinois, Chris &lt;br /&gt;
has always found ways to express herself with her artwork. While attending Northwestern University, &lt;br /&gt;
she studied the Arts and Crafts movement, Native American and Chinese art history that brings a unique &lt;br /&gt;
flavor to her art pieces. &lt;br /&gt;
Over the years, Chris has worked in acrylics, ceramics, photography, stained glass and mosaics. While &lt;br /&gt;
working artistically in many media, she came back to creating artwork with glass. Since the late 1980’s &lt;br /&gt;
she has developed her artistic style through stained glass and began creating stained glass mosaics in &lt;br /&gt;
2002. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Simply Chicago Art, showcases gifted local area artists and help the community discover these incredibly talented individuals.  Using their work as inspiration, Simply Chicago Art creates an experience within the gallery that is rewarding and enjoyable for the artists and clientele.&lt;br /&gt;

Dogmatic, Art Ledge, Old Gold, Green Lantern, and Alterspace, Knock
Knock gallery embraces the domestic resonance of a site, rather than
opting for white, anonymous space. Created as a platform for site
specific work, the gallery itself presents a difinitive context for the
work. The space utilizes the upper and lower landings of a staricase
joining the streetlevel entrance and the livingspace of a southside

Coming from different regions and educational backgrounds, the artists &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;C&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;- Sui Jianguo, Zhan Wang, Shen Shaomin, and Chen Wenling &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;C&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt; each employ different materials and visual styles, but they also show commonalities.&lt;span&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;Each work is intensely engaged with important contemporary issues such as the energy crisis, materialism, and globalization.&lt;span&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;They also share inspiration from traditional Chinese art, commercial culture, folk art, and industrial machinery as they explore ways to react to a public space. Contemporary Sculptures from China is presented by the Chicago Department of Cultural Affairs, Millennium Park, in cooperation with Millennium Park Inc., and is sponsored by The Boeing Company with support from the Richard H.

  &lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-text field-field-event-type&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Event Type:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;Other Event&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-date field-field-date&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;date-display-start&quot;&gt;Tuesday, October 6, 2009 6:00pm&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;date-display-separator&quot;&gt; - &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span class=&quot;date-display-end&quot;&gt;Tuesday, April 6, 2010 6:00pm &lt;/span&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;p&gt;
The first Tuesday of the month 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
The MCA offers a range of free and wildly interesting events in the cafe 
almost every Tuesday evening from October through April. Museum admission is 
free to everyone on Tuesdays so come early and visit the galleries and then 
stick around for constructive entertainment accompanied by a glass of wine or a 
cup of Joe and a tasty snack from Puck&#039;s Cafe.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A whimsical 
art party that unites artists of all skill levels. Not really an art class, not 
quite a party; it is a gathering for those who want to have a hands-on encounter

 <title>Visions from a Foxhole: The Wartime Sketches of William Foley</title>

&lt;em&gt;Visions from a Foxhole&lt;/em&gt; includes more than 40 works in pencil, ink, and oil created by William Foley, infantryman in World War II. Many come from the sketchbook he carried during the war; others show the reflections of a veteran over the decades after his service.  
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
This exhibit evokes the scarred winter landscape of the 94th Infantry Division&#039;s push to the Rhine, from shattered cities and blackened forests to the trenches where Foley and his fellow soldiers dug in for battle. There are also a number of personal vignettes of life on the front lines, as soldiers catch a chicken for dinner, take prisoners, explore a soap factory, and stand watch by a wrecked farmhouse. For a time, though his memories of the war were vivid, Foley could only recreate them in black and white. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
 The Pritzker Military Library is open from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday-Friday, and admission is free.

Through its collection and its programs, the Library is dedicated to serving as a forum for those discussions and preserving them for future generations.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;   &lt;/div&gt;

Since its invention, lithography has always been based in the idea that grease and water are mutually rejective and has always remained intimately connected to drawing and painting. Historically the image was created and printed from the surface of prepared limestone slabs but currently the modern ball ground aluminum plate frees the artist from many of the constraints of limestone while producing comparable printed effects. This course includes the theory, drawing techniques, processing, and printing of aluminum plate lithography. Color theory and multiple runs will also be reviewed. This class is open to students of all skill levels and will be taught by Chicago artist Richard Repasky. Class size is limited to 8 individuals. This class costs $300 including all materials except for paper and plates. Plates will be available on the first day of class. Open Studio time for the duration of the class is available for a $2 materials fee per visit.

Nature and Science exhibition 
Reception: Thursday, Feb 11th from 5:00 to 7:30 p.m.

Works include audio/sound installation, drawing, multimedia installation, painting, PHSCologram, and sculpture.

Artists include: Granite Amit, (art)n with NSCA, JPL and MBARI, AnnMarie Cernoch, Michele Corazzo, Shawn Decker, Indira Johnson, James Mesple, Kelley Quinn, Dusty Seno, Eugene Skala, Sharon Skolnick, Michelle Stone, Joan Truckenbrod, and Robert Wapahi.

Learn the exciting processes of printing in color through mezzotint with Chicago-based artist, Connie Wolfe. In this course, you will specifically learn how to print reductive and multi-plate color prints using mezzotint as your starting point. Preparing mezzotint plates and using secondary tonal processes such as aquatint will be covered in this class. Students will learn how to mix color inks, how to transfer key plates to additional plates, how to print multiple colors, and how colors can work together to make visually dynamic images. Additionally, students will learn how to edition, how to prepare paper, and how to sign prints. This class is open to all skill levels, so previous mezzotint knowledge is not necessary. Class size is limited to 8 individuals. This class costs $300 including all materials except for paper and plates. 3” x 4” plates will be available on the first day of class. Open Studio time for the duration of the class is available for a $2 materials fee per visit.

Exhibit will run until March 31st; Free Admission &lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The exhibit “Resiliencia”, organized by the Instituto Cervantes and in collaboration with AECID and PHotoEspaña, presents various works from 10 young artists who participated in the 2009 edition of PHE Discoveries in Latin America. The works in this exhibit present diverse perspectives on society and its ability to adapt and survive while being affected by continuous fluctuations. In Latin America, these creative processes come about in the midst of social, economic, and political turmoil. “Resiliencia” presents the work of professionals who are exploring the changes happening all around them, as well as reflecting on the role of image in our society.&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:cultura@cervantes1.org&quot;&gt;cultura@cervantes1.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://chicago.cervantes.es&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://chicago.cervantes.es&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

As the body is digitally reflected and reborn, are we looking towards technology to experience ourselves in a redeemed form outside of human societal constructs? When technology captures kinetic energy, is our essence embodied in the pixilation, or is our “self” lost in the process? Through dynamic works by Luftwerk, OpenEnded Group, and Troika Ranch, as well as the Synchronous Objects web kiosk created by William Forsythe, Maria Palazzi, and Norah Zuniga Shaw, the exhibition brings forward exploratory ideas that push and pull our perceptions of the body and impulses to move beyond it into uncharted cyber territory.  

A series of related programs, including gallery talks, discussions and workshops will be offered throughout the exhibition. For more information, visit &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.colum.edu/deps&quot; title=&quot;www.colum.edu/deps&quot;&gt;www.colum.edu/deps&lt;/a&gt;. 

&quot;Digital Incarnate&quot; is co-curated by Alycia Scott and Sara Slawnik and presented by Columbia College Chicago’s: Department of Exhibition and Performance Spaces, The Dance Center, the Ellen Stone Belic Institute for the Study of Women and Gender in the Arts and Media and the Interactive Arts and Media Department.&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:sslawnik@colum.edu&quot;&gt;sslawnik@colum.edu&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.colum.edu/deps&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.colum.edu/deps&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

This exhibition, organized by the National Gallery of Art in Washington, DC, evokes the discreet world of individual collecting to tell a less familiar story of nineteenth-century art.&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:smart-museum@uchicago.edu&quot;&gt;smart-museum@uchicago.edu&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://smartmuseum.uchicago.edu/darkersideoflight&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://smartmuseum.uchicago.edu/darkersideoflight&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

A Savannah barber, Davis spent his free time carving a diverse but unified body of highly refined sculpture that reflects his deep faith, humor, and dignity. This retrospective features 109 pieces and is organized by Susan Crawley of the High Museum of Art, Atlanta, in association with King-Tisdell Cottage Foundation of Savannah. The title comes from Davis’s explanation of why he disliked parting with his work: “They’re my treasure. If I sold these, I’d be really poor.”&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:intuit@art.org&quot;&gt;intuit@art.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.art.org&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.art.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

Sacred Geometry: Art of the &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;Mandala&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span&gt;will be presented at Life Force Arts Center Gallery, 3148 N Lincoln Ave, Chicago from February 19 - March 31, 2010&lt;/span&gt;.
This art show explores contemporary artists&#039; creations of mandalas,
which artist Diogenes Lamarche defines as &amp;quot;visual compositions, usually
based in a circular pattern, that incorporate different symbolic and
geometric patterns that can lead to shifts in consciousness,
perspectives, and energy flow.&amp;quot; The exhibit includes &lt;span&gt;paintings, sculpture and mixed media and &lt;/span&gt;features a variety of approaches to the &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;mandala&lt;/span&gt;. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;span&gt;Admission is free and gallery hours are by appointment. For more information, contact 773-327-7224 or &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; href=&quot;http://www.lifeforcearts.org//&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;span&gt;www.LifeForceArts.org&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;. &lt;/span&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Wikipedia
says that in various spiritual traditions, mandalas may be employed for

&lt;div&gt;
Pat Otto, one of the artists represented in Art of the &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;Mandala&lt;/span&gt;, is also an art teacher and art therapist. &lt;em&gt;&lt;span&gt;
She says, &amp;quot;My artwork comes from images and urges of psyche that
I notice and let surface. They merge with everyday life experiences,
and I bring them into form through working with physical materials,
such as wood, wax, paint and canvas. I enjoy facilitating art
experiences for others to creatively express themselves in a way that
is deeply intuitive and insightful.  I have found, in my own work and
in working with others, that using the mandala in its most basic
form, a circle with a center, creates a safe and sacred space for
expression.  As Carl Jung said, mandalas are a symbol for the Self
seeking wholeness, and are a vehicle for healing. Often, people are
found to spontaneously express images within a circle framework at
chaotic times in their lives.&amp;quot;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;em&gt; &lt;/em&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Another
artist in the show, Steven Blaine Adams, says, &amp;quot;Crystals grow in sacred
geometric patterns, and their properties have been used since ancient
times for healing and magical purposes. As an energy healer myself, I
help clients through using crystals to balance their physical, mental,
emotional and spiritual energy. These properties make crystals ideal
materials for creating sacred mandalas for use in meditation, and I am
making three crystal mandalas for this show: the Green Man, the Sri
Yantra and the Celtic Cross.&amp;quot; 
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;

Life Force Arts Center (LFAC), 3148 N Lincoln, Chicago, 
is Chicago’s  spiritual art gallery and performance space.Our mission is
creating spiritual awakening and transformation through the visual, 
literary and performing arts. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;left&quot;&gt;
The Center presents spiritually based dance, theater, music, performance art, authors, and visual &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;artists&lt;/span&gt;
of all spiritual traditions. LFAC defines spiritual art as art that  
flows from spiritual practice, art that strives to connect the audience 
with Spirit, and art that creates spiritual healing, transformation, or
awakening. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;
   
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
At LFAC, we recognize 
and nurture the fact that Spirit moves through an individual to create 
in many forms of professional practice: art, teaching and healing. 
Spiritual artists often are teachers and healers as well. LFAC is a 
place where the public (audiences, students, clients, participants) can 
partake of all the modalities in which a practitioner is inspired to 
create. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;
  
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
LFAC offers art exhibits, 
performances and spiritual workshops in our 1200 square foot Main Space.
Visit our Gift Shop to purchase artwork, CD;s and DVD&#039;s, jewelry, books
and other products of the artists, teachers and healers who present at 
our Center. The space is available for rental as well, and is perfect 
for workshops, meetings, parties yoga, dance, theater and other events. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Life
Force Arts Center opened in 2008, and is operated by Life Force Arts 
Foundation, which was founded in 1988 as a non-profit, tax exempt 501 
(c) 3 organization to present the   modern dance and performance work of
Joan Forest Mage. As Joan developed the deeper, spiritual aspects of 
her work as shamanic practice, the company grew to support the 
exploration of the art-spirituality connection.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;   &lt;/div&gt;

&lt;p&gt;
This March and April, Peter Patterson of &lt;em&gt;Patterson Glassworks&lt;/em&gt; in Mundelein, Illinois&lt;em&gt; &lt;/em&gt;is featured in the exhibition window &lt;em&gt;Waterworlds &lt;/em&gt;at the Illinois Artisans Shop, Chicago. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Patterson has worked with glass for over 25 years. He earned a BFA from the Cleveland School of Art in Cleveland, Ohio and has studied extensively at the Penland School of Craft in Penland, North Carolina. His unique use of material during the firing process has distinct visual results. The water-like depth of light is built from several surfaces of glass, color overlays, millefiori and gradually spaced bubbles. In &lt;em&gt;Waterworlds&lt;/em&gt;, Patterson uses a process he invented: incorporating phosphorus into the glass, making it glow in the dark. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&lt;em&gt;With my BFA from college majoring in illustration, I like to think of each of my pieces as an illustration. I can achieve this by pre-fusing some of my decoration or using different technique. &lt;/em&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&lt;em&gt;The inspiration for my different series comes from a variety of things including life experiences, scuba diving, working plant knowledge, graphic design and nature itself. I put these fluid motions of the water along with organic shapes derived from nature into my glass creations.&lt;/em&gt;  -Peter Patterson
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Peter Patterson is shown at galleries across the country and is in private collections worldwide. He is represented by the Illinois Artisans Shop, Chicago. All items on display are for sale. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
The Illinois Artisans Shop, a not-for-profit endeavor, is a showcase for art work created by the state&#039;s finest artisans. It provides an ongoing opportunity to view and purchase the best designed and crafted traditional, contemporary, ethnic and folk art made in Illinois. Illinois Artisans Shop, 100 W.

During the month of March, ART ON ARMITAGE: a window gallery will present Lindsay Obermeyer&#039;s A Glass Prairie, an installation that pays homage to the beauty of our natural landscape.  Fashioned from hundreds of beads and yards of wire, each wildflower is a facsimile of those native to the Midwest.  A Glass Prairie will grow over the duration of the exhibition as new flowers are added to the installation each week, filling the space with color and hope for our fragile ecosystem.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
The public is invited to an &lt;strong&gt;artist&#039;s reception &lt;span class=&quot;yshortcuts&quot;&gt;on Sunday March
7th, from 4pm&lt;/span&gt; to 6pm.&lt;/strong&gt;

A living legend...&lt;br /&gt;
March 2, 2010 thru April 9, 2010&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Nevica Project proudly presents &lt;span&gt;Warren MacKenzie - &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;em&gt;A living legend...&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Warren MacKenzie (b. 1924) is recognized as a true master of 20th
Century ceramic art. Through his traditional wheel-thrown vessels, Mr.
MacKenzie&#039;s pottery embodies strong influences from Bernard Leach and
Shoji Hamada.  His work consistently represents the confidence of where
the potter’s hand is felt and touched through the utilitarian pots that
are produced for use in everyday life.&lt;br /&gt;
This exhibition will feature over 50 different stamped pieces created by this legendary potter.&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:info@theNEVICAproject.com&quot;&gt;info@theNEVICAproject.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.theNEVICAproject.com&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.theNEVICAproject.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

While the focal point of a concert is the perform­ers, a plethora ofvisual elements are involved in creating and enhancing the experience. Artistssuch as graphic designers, illustrators, photographers and many others are allcrucial in creating this environment from the designs on the merchandise to thepromotions for the event. The visual elements that often fade into thebackground- band t-shirts, posters, album art, post-event photos, fashion,advertisements and fliers - are now the focus,givingviewers access to the excess.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:mherrera@colum.edu&quot;&gt;mherrera@colum.edu&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-event-location&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Event Location&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-text field-field-venue&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Venue:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;C33 Gallery.

 <title>Weekend Workshop: Capturing the Ragdale House through Words and Images</title>

Under the exciting direction of author Janet Desaulniers and photographer Jane Fulton Alt, students will spend time discovering their creative voice while responding through pictures and words to the Ragdale House and Grounds. 

All levels of photography and writing will be accepted.  The workshop, however, is not designed for students looking for instruction of how to use their equipment, their computers or Photoshop.  A working knowledge of students’ cameras and equipment is required.  Students will be working digitally so they are expected to bring a digital camera, laptop and printer, if possible.  

Join us for the last opportunity to be and create in the Ragdale House with two award-winning Ragdale alumni before it closes for a full year!

Overnight workshop participants will stay in the historic Ragdale House or the Barnhouse. Daytrippers are welcome for a reduced fee.  The workshop will begin at 5pm on Friday and end at 5pm on Sunday.  

Rooms are single occupancy, with some twin beds and some doubles.  Private baths are available on a first come, first served basis.  Workshop is limited to 16 participants; 11 overnight, 5 daytime – REGISTER EARLY!

&lt;span&gt;The
International Museum of Surgical Science (IMSS) presents &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Blooms, Efflorescence, and Other
Dermatological Embellishments&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;—an exhibition of jewelry and photography
by Lauren Kalman—and &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;You thought that you were alone but I caught
your bullet just in time&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;—a sculptural installation by Annie
Heckman—from March 5 through May 21, 2010. These exhibitions, the latest in the
Museum’s ongoing “Anatomy in the Gallery” program, use grotesque ornamentation
to contrast the idealized elements of conventional bodily imagery with the
realities of individual, physical bodies.&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span&gt;Blooms,
Efflorescence, and Other Dermatological Embellishments&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span&gt;
includes Kalman’s jeweled adornments that replicate the skin infections,
lesions, and sores caused by medical conditions such as acne, cancer, herpes,
and syphilis, as well as photographs of models wearing these adornments. &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;You
thought that you were alone but I caught your bullet just in time&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;
comprises glow-in-the-dark house-of-cards structures built of interlocking cut
paper pieces, each drawn upon in graphite and coated with phosphorescent paint by
Chicago artist Heckman to resemble a human or animal bone. The ongoing “Anatomy
in the Gallery” program at IMSS showcases paired exhibitions of medically
inspired contemporary art in the context of the Museum’s historical exhibits
and artifacts, all housed in a landmark turn-of-the-century mansion on Lake
Shore Drive.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:info@imss.org&quot;&gt;info@imss.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.imss.org/anatgallery.htm&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.imss.org/anatgallery.htm&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

Reflets&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;La Poesie Des Affiches&lt;/em&gt;. In &lt;em&gt;Les Reflets&lt;/em&gt; the images explore 
Aurinko&#039;s fascination with the artificial beauty and frozen perfection 
of mannequins and captured faces that inhabit store windows and gaze 
from billboards and advertisements. &lt;em&gt;La Poesie Des Affiches&lt;/em&gt; is a 
continuation of graffiti-based work begun in Madrid, New York and Paris 
years ago. Aurinko examines the layering of signage that appears in 
large cities, often plastered over &amp;quot;post no bills&amp;quot; signs, in languages 
that mirror the culture of a country.&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:bryna.shields@chicagophoto.org&quot;&gt;bryna.shields@chicagophoto.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.chicagophoto.org&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.chicagophoto.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-event-location&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Event Location&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-text field-field-venue&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Venue:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;Chicago Photography Center&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-text field-field-phone&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Phone Number:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;773-549-1631&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-postal field-field-postal-contact&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Address:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3301 N Lincoln Ave&lt;br /&gt;Chicago, IL 60657&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://maps.google.com/maps?q=3301+N+Lincoln+Ave%2C+Chicago%2C+IL%2C+60657&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Google Map&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-text field-field-neighborhood&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Neighborhood:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;Lakeview&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/fieldset&gt;

Chris Heisinger is an artist specializing in stained glass mosaics. Born and raised in Chicago, Illinois, Chris &lt;br /&gt;
has always found ways to express herself with her artwork. While attending Northwestern University, &lt;br /&gt;
she studied the Arts and Crafts movement, Native American and Chinese art history that brings a unique &lt;br /&gt;
flavor to her art pieces. &lt;br /&gt;
Over the years, Chris has worked in acrylics, ceramics, photography, stained glass and mosaics. While &lt;br /&gt;
working artistically in many media, she came back to creating artwork with glass. Since the late 1980’s &lt;br /&gt;
she has developed her artistic style through stained glass and began creating stained glass mosaics in &lt;br /&gt;
2002. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Simply Chicago Art, showcases gifted local area artists and help the community discover these incredibly talented individuals.  Using their work as inspiration, Simply Chicago Art creates an experience within the gallery that is rewarding and enjoyable for the artists and clientele.&lt;br /&gt;

Dogmatic, Art Ledge, Old Gold, Green Lantern, and Alterspace, Knock
Knock gallery embraces the domestic resonance of a site, rather than
opting for white, anonymous space. Created as a platform for site
specific work, the gallery itself presents a difinitive context for the
work. The space utilizes the upper and lower landings of a staricase
joining the streetlevel entrance and the livingspace of a southside
resedency. In addition to the main gallery space, there is a small
project room off the upper landing. Knock Knock gallery is located at
3658 S. Wolcott: on the NW corner of 37th and Wolcott.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;   &lt;/div&gt;

Coming from different regions and educational backgrounds, the artists &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;C&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;- Sui Jianguo, Zhan Wang, Shen Shaomin, and Chen Wenling &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;C&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt; each employ different materials and visual styles, but they also show commonalities.&lt;span&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;Each work is intensely engaged with important contemporary issues such as the energy crisis, materialism, and globalization.&lt;span&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;They also share inspiration from traditional Chinese art, commercial culture, folk art, and industrial machinery as they explore ways to react to a public space. Contemporary Sculptures from China is presented by the Chicago Department of Cultural Affairs, Millennium Park, in cooperation with Millennium Park Inc., and is sponsored by The Boeing Company with support from the Richard H.

The first Tuesday of the month 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
The MCA offers a range of free and wildly interesting events in the cafe 
almost every Tuesday evening from October through April. Museum admission is 
free to everyone on Tuesdays so come early and visit the galleries and then 
stick around for constructive entertainment accompanied by a glass of wine or a 
cup of Joe and a tasty snack from Puck&#039;s Cafe.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A whimsical 
art party that unites artists of all skill levels. Not really an art class, not 
quite a party; it is a gathering for those who want to have a hands-on encounter 
with art. The MCA provides art supplies and participants bring ideas. There are 
special activities to guide participants through the evening of art making.

The MCA documents contemporary visual culture through painting, sculpture, photography, video and film, and performance. Located in the heart of downtown Chicago, the MCA boasts a gift store, bookstore, restaurant, 300-seat theater, and a terraced sculpture garden with a great view of Lake Michigan.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Mission Statement&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The mission of the MCA is to be an innovative and compelling center of contemporary art where the public can directly experience the work and ideas of living artists, and understand the historical, social, and cultural context of the art of our time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Museum boldly interweaves exhibitions, performances, collections, and educational programs to excite, challenge, and illuminate our visitors and to provide insight into the creative process.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The MCA aspires to engage a broad and diverse audience, create a sense of community and be a place for contemplation, stimulation, and discussion about contemporary art and culture.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;   &lt;/div&gt;
  &lt;/div&gt;

 <title>Visions from a Foxhole: The Wartime Sketches of William Foley</title>

&lt;em&gt;Visions from a Foxhole&lt;/em&gt; includes more than 40 works in pencil, ink, and oil created by William Foley, infantryman in World War II. Many come from the sketchbook he carried during the war; others show the reflections of a veteran over the decades after his service.  
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
This exhibit evokes the scarred winter landscape of the 94th Infantry Division&#039;s push to the Rhine, from shattered cities and blackened forests to the trenches where Foley and his fellow soldiers dug in for battle. There are also a number of personal vignettes of life on the front lines, as soldiers catch a chicken for dinner, take prisoners, explore a soap factory, and stand watch by a wrecked farmhouse. For a time, though his memories of the war were vivid, Foley could only recreate them in black and white. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
 The Pritzker Military Library is open from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday-Friday, and admission is free.

Since its invention, lithography has always been based in the idea that grease and water are mutually rejective and has always remained intimately connected to drawing and painting. Historically the image was created and printed from the surface of prepared limestone slabs but currently the modern ball ground aluminum plate frees the artist from many of the constraints of limestone while producing comparable printed effects. This course includes the theory, drawing techniques, processing, and printing of aluminum plate lithography. Color theory and multiple runs will also be reviewed. This class is open to students of all skill levels and will be taught by Chicago artist Richard Repasky. Class size is limited to 8 individuals. This class costs $300 including all materials except for paper and plates. Plates will be available on the first day of class. Open Studio time for the duration of the class is available for a $2 materials fee per visit.

Learn the exciting processes of printing in color through mezzotint with Chicago-based artist, Connie Wolfe. In this course, you will specifically learn how to print reductive and multi-plate color prints using mezzotint as your starting point. Preparing mezzotint plates and using secondary tonal processes such as aquatint will be covered in this class. Students will learn how to mix color inks, how to transfer key plates to additional plates, how to print multiple colors, and how colors can work together to make visually dynamic images. Additionally, students will learn how to edition, how to prepare paper, and how to sign prints. This class is open to all skill levels, so previous mezzotint knowledge is not necessary. Class size is limited to 8 individuals. This class costs $300 including all materials except for paper and plates. 3” x 4” plates will be available on the first day of class. Open Studio time for the duration of the class is available for a $2 materials fee per visit.

Exhibit will run until March 31st; Free Admission &lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The exhibit “Resiliencia”, organized by the Instituto Cervantes and in collaboration with AECID and PHotoEspaña, presents various works from 10 young artists who participated in the 2009 edition of PHE Discoveries in Latin America. The works in this exhibit present diverse perspectives on society and its ability to adapt and survive while being affected by continuous fluctuations. In Latin America, these creative processes come about in the midst of social, economic, and political turmoil. “Resiliencia” presents the work of professionals who are exploring the changes happening all around them, as well as reflecting on the role of image in our society.&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:cultura@cervantes1.org&quot;&gt;cultura@cervantes1.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://chicago.cervantes.es&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://chicago.cervantes.es&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

As the body is digitally reflected and reborn, are we looking towards technology to experience ourselves in a redeemed form outside of human societal constructs? When technology captures kinetic energy, is our essence embodied in the pixilation, or is our “self” lost in the process? Through dynamic works by Luftwerk, OpenEnded Group, and Troika Ranch, as well as the Synchronous Objects web kiosk created by William Forsythe, Maria Palazzi, and Norah Zuniga Shaw, the exhibition brings forward exploratory ideas that push and pull our perceptions of the body and impulses to move beyond it into uncharted cyber territory.  

A series of related programs, including gallery talks, discussions and workshops will be offered throughout the exhibition. For more information, visit &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.colum.edu/deps&quot; title=&quot;www.colum.edu/deps&quot;&gt;www.colum.edu/deps&lt;/a&gt;. 

&quot;Digital Incarnate&quot; is co-curated by Alycia Scott and Sara Slawnik and presented by Columbia College Chicago’s: Department of Exhibition and Performance Spaces, The Dance Center, the Ellen Stone Belic Institute for the Study of Women and Gender in the Arts and Media and the Interactive Arts and Media Department.&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:sslawnik@colum.edu&quot;&gt;sslawnik@colum.edu&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.colum.edu/deps&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.colum.edu/deps&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

A Savannah barber, Davis spent his free time carving a diverse but unified body of highly refined sculpture that reflects his deep faith, humor, and dignity. This retrospective features 109 pieces and is organized by Susan Crawley of the High Museum of Art, Atlanta, in association with King-Tisdell Cottage Foundation of Savannah. The title comes from Davis’s explanation of why he disliked parting with his work: “They’re my treasure. If I sold these, I’d be really poor.”&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:intuit@art.org&quot;&gt;intuit@art.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.art.org&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.art.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

Sacred Geometry: Art of the &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;Mandala&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span&gt;will be presented at Life Force Arts Center Gallery, 3148 N Lincoln Ave, Chicago from February 19 - March 31, 2010&lt;/span&gt;.
This art show explores contemporary artists&#039; creations of mandalas,
which artist Diogenes Lamarche defines as &amp;quot;visual compositions, usually
based in a circular pattern, that incorporate different symbolic and
geometric patterns that can lead to shifts in consciousness,
perspectives, and energy flow.&amp;quot; The exhibit includes &lt;span&gt;paintings, sculpture and mixed media and &lt;/span&gt;features a variety of approaches to the &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;mandala&lt;/span&gt;. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;span&gt;Admission is free and gallery hours are by appointment. For more information, contact 773-327-7224 or &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; href=&quot;http://www.lifeforcearts.org//&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;span&gt;www.LifeForceArts.org&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;. &lt;/span&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Wikipedia
says that in various spiritual traditions, mandalas may be employed for
focusing attention of aspirants and adepts, as a spiritual teaching
tool, for establishing a &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Temenos&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Temenos&quot;&gt;sacred space&lt;/a&gt;, and as an aid to &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meditation&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Meditation&quot;&gt;meditation&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trance&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Trance&quot;&gt;trance&lt;/a&gt; induction. In common use, &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;mandala&lt;/span&gt; has become a generic term for any plan, chart or geometric pattern that represents the &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cosmos&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Cosmos&quot;&gt;cosmos&lt;/a&gt; metaphysically or symbolically, a &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Macrocosm_and_microcosm&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Macrocosm and microcosm&quot;&gt;microcosm&lt;/a&gt; of the &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universe&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Universe&quot;&gt;Universe&lt;/a&gt; from the human perspective.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Pat Otto, one of the artists represented in Art of the &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;Mandala&lt;/span&gt;, is also an art teacher and art therapist. &lt;em&gt;&lt;span&gt;
She says, &amp;quot;My artwork comes from images and urges of psyche that
I notice and let surface. They merge with everyday life experiences,
and I bring them into form through working with physical materials,
such as wood, wax, paint and canvas. I enjoy facilitating art
experiences for others to creatively express themselves in a way that
is deeply intuitive and insightful.  I have found, in my own work and
in working with others, that using the mandala in its most basic
form, a circle with a center, creates a safe and sacred space for
expression.  As Carl Jung said, mandalas are a symbol for the Self
seeking wholeness, and are a vehicle for healing. Often, people are
found to spontaneously express images within a circle framework at
chaotic times in their lives.&amp;quot;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;em&gt; &lt;/em&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Another
artist in the show, Steven Blaine Adams, says, &amp;quot;Crystals grow in sacred
geometric patterns, and their properties have been used since ancient
times for healing and magical purposes. As an energy healer myself, I
help clients through using crystals to balance their physical, mental,
emotional and spiritual energy. These properties make crystals ideal
materials for creating sacred mandalas for use in meditation, and I am
making three crystal mandalas for this show: the Green Man, the Sri
Yantra and the Celtic Cross.&amp;quot; 
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;

Life Force Arts Center (LFAC), 3148 N Lincoln, Chicago, 
is Chicago’s  spiritual art gallery and performance space.Our mission is
creating spiritual awakening and transformation through the visual, 
literary and performing arts. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;left&quot;&gt;
The Center presents spiritually based dance, theater, music, performance art, authors, and visual &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;artists&lt;/span&gt;
of all spiritual traditions. LFAC defines spiritual art as art that  
flows from spiritual practice, art that strives to connect the audience 
with Spirit, and art that creates spiritual healing, transformation, or
awakening. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;
   
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
At LFAC, we recognize 
and nurture the fact that Spirit moves through an individual to create 
in many forms of professional practice: art, teaching and healing. 
Spiritual artists often are teachers and healers as well. LFAC is a 
place where the public (audiences, students, clients, participants) can 
partake of all the modalities in which a practitioner is inspired to 
create. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;
  
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
LFAC offers art exhibits, 
performances and spiritual workshops in our 1200 square foot Main Space.
Visit our Gift Shop to purchase artwork, CD;s and DVD&#039;s, jewelry, books
and other products of the artists, teachers and healers who present at 
our Center. The space is available for rental as well, and is perfect 
for workshops, meetings, parties yoga, dance, theater and other events. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Life
Force Arts Center opened in 2008, and is operated by Life Force Arts 
Foundation, which was founded in 1988 as a non-profit, tax exempt 501 
(c) 3 organization to present the   modern dance and performance work of
Joan Forest Mage. As Joan developed the deeper, spiritual aspects of 
her work as shamanic practice, the company grew to support the 
exploration of the art-spirituality connection.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;   &lt;/div&gt;
  &lt;/div&gt;

&lt;p&gt;
This March and April, Peter Patterson of &lt;em&gt;Patterson Glassworks&lt;/em&gt; in Mundelein, Illinois&lt;em&gt; &lt;/em&gt;is featured in the exhibition window &lt;em&gt;Waterworlds &lt;/em&gt;at the Illinois Artisans Shop, Chicago. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Patterson has worked with glass for over 25 years. He earned a BFA from the Cleveland School of Art in Cleveland, Ohio and has studied extensively at the Penland School of Craft in Penland, North Carolina. His unique use of material during the firing process has distinct visual results. The water-like depth of light is built from several surfaces of glass, color overlays, millefiori and gradually spaced bubbles. In &lt;em&gt;Waterworlds&lt;/em&gt;, Patterson uses a process he invented: incorporating phosphorus into the glass, making it glow in the dark. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&lt;em&gt;With my BFA from college majoring in illustration, I like to think of each of my pieces as an illustration. I can achieve this by pre-fusing some of my decoration or using different technique. &lt;/em&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&lt;em&gt;The inspiration for my different series comes from a variety of things including life experiences, scuba diving, working plant knowledge, graphic design and nature itself. I put these fluid motions of the water along with organic shapes derived from nature into my glass creations.&lt;/em&gt;  -Peter Patterson
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Peter Patterson is shown at galleries across the country and is in private collections worldwide. He is represented by the Illinois Artisans Shop, Chicago. All items on display are for sale. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
The Illinois Artisans Shop, a not-for-profit endeavor, is a showcase for art work created by the state&#039;s finest artisans. It provides an ongoing opportunity to view and purchase the best designed and crafted traditional, contemporary, ethnic and folk art made in Illinois. Illinois Artisans Shop, 100 W. Randolph, Ste. 2-200, 312-814-5321, Monday-Friday 9 - 5.

During the month of March, ART ON ARMITAGE: a window gallery will present Lindsay Obermeyer&#039;s A Glass Prairie, an installation that pays homage to the beauty of our natural landscape.  Fashioned from hundreds of beads and yards of wire, each wildflower is a facsimile of those native to the Midwest.  A Glass Prairie will grow over the duration of the exhibition as new flowers are added to the installation each week, filling the space with color and hope for our fragile ecosystem.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
The public is invited to an &lt;strong&gt;artist&#039;s reception &lt;span class=&quot;yshortcuts&quot;&gt;on Sunday March
7th, from 4pm&lt;/span&gt; to 6pm.&lt;/strong&gt;

A living legend...&lt;br /&gt;
March 2, 2010 thru April 9, 2010&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Nevica Project proudly presents &lt;span&gt;Warren MacKenzie - &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;em&gt;A living legend...&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Warren MacKenzie (b. 1924) is recognized as a true master of 20th
Century ceramic art. Through his traditional wheel-thrown vessels, Mr.
MacKenzie&#039;s pottery embodies strong influences from Bernard Leach and
Shoji Hamada.  His work consistently represents the confidence of where
the potter’s hand is felt and touched through the utilitarian pots that
are produced for use in everyday life.&lt;br /&gt;
This exhibition will feature over 50 different stamped pieces created by this legendary potter.&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:info@theNEVICAproject.com&quot;&gt;info@theNEVICAproject.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.theNEVICAproject.com&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.theNEVICAproject.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

While the focal point of a concert is the perform­ers, a plethora ofvisual elements are involved in creating and enhancing the experience. Artistssuch as graphic designers, illustrators, photographers and many others are allcrucial in creating this environment from the designs on the merchandise to thepromotions for the event. The visual elements that often fade into thebackground- band t-shirts, posters, album art, post-event photos, fashion,advertisements and fliers - are now the focus,givingviewers access to the excess.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:mherrera@colum.edu&quot;&gt;mherrera@colum.edu&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-event-location&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Event Location&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-text field-field-venue&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Venue:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;C33 Gallery.

&lt;span&gt;The
International Museum of Surgical Science (IMSS) presents &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Blooms, Efflorescence, and Other
Dermatological Embellishments&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;—an exhibition of jewelry and photography
by Lauren Kalman—and &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;You thought that you were alone but I caught
your bullet just in time&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;—a sculptural installation by Annie
Heckman—from March 5 through May 21, 2010. These exhibitions, the latest in the
Museum’s ongoing “Anatomy in the Gallery” program, use grotesque ornamentation
to contrast the idealized elements of conventional bodily imagery with the
realities of individual, physical bodies.&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span&gt;Blooms,
Efflorescence, and Other Dermatological Embellishments&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span&gt;
includes Kalman’s jeweled adornments that replicate the skin infections,
lesions, and sores caused by medical conditions such as acne, cancer, herpes,
and syphilis, as well as photographs of models wearing these adornments. &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;You
thought that you were alone but I caught your bullet just in time&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;
comprises glow-in-the-dark house-of-cards structures built of interlocking cut
paper pieces, each drawn upon in graphite and coated with phosphorescent paint by
Chicago artist Heckman to resemble a human or animal bone. The ongoing “Anatomy
in the Gallery” program at IMSS showcases paired exhibitions of medically
inspired contemporary art in the context of the Museum’s historical exhibits
and artifacts, all housed in a landmark turn-of-the-century mansion on Lake
Shore Drive.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:info@imss.org&quot;&gt;info@imss.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.imss.org/anatgallery.htm&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.imss.org/anatgallery.htm&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

Reflets&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;La Poesie Des Affiches&lt;/em&gt;. In &lt;em&gt;Les Reflets&lt;/em&gt; the images explore 
Aurinko&#039;s fascination with the artificial beauty and frozen perfection 
of mannequins and captured faces that inhabit store windows and gaze 
from billboards and advertisements. &lt;em&gt;La Poesie Des Affiches&lt;/em&gt; is a 
continuation of graffiti-based work begun in Madrid, New York and Paris 
years ago. Aurinko examines the layering of signage that appears in 
large cities, often plastered over &amp;quot;post no bills&amp;quot; signs, in languages 
that mirror the culture of a country.&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:bryna.shields@chicagophoto.org&quot;&gt;bryna.shields@chicagophoto.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.chicagophoto.org&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.chicagophoto.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-event-location&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Event Location&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-text field-field-venue&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Venue:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;Chicago Photography Center&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-text field-field-phone&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Phone Number:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;773-549-1631&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-postal field-field-postal-contact&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Address:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3301 N Lincoln Ave&lt;br /&gt;Chicago, IL 60657&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://maps.google.com/maps?q=3301+N+Lincoln+Ave%2C+Chicago%2C+IL%2C+60657&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Google Map&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-text field-field-neighborhood&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Neighborhood:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;Lakeview&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/fieldset&gt;

Chris Heisinger is an artist specializing in stained glass mosaics. Born and raised in Chicago, Illinois, Chris &lt;br /&gt;
has always found ways to express herself with her artwork. While attending Northwestern University, &lt;br /&gt;
she studied the Arts and Crafts movement, Native American and Chinese art history that brings a unique &lt;br /&gt;
flavor to her art pieces. &lt;br /&gt;
Over the years, Chris has worked in acrylics, ceramics, photography, stained glass and mosaics. While &lt;br /&gt;
working artistically in many media, she came back to creating artwork with glass. Since the late 1980’s &lt;br /&gt;
she has developed her artistic style through stained glass and began creating stained glass mosaics in &lt;br /&gt;
2002. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Simply Chicago Art, showcases gifted local area artists and help the community discover these incredibly talented individuals.  Using their work as inspiration, Simply Chicago Art creates an experience within the gallery that is rewarding and enjoyable for the artists and clientele.&lt;br /&gt;

Dogmatic, Art Ledge, Old Gold, Green Lantern, and Alterspace, Knock
Knock gallery embraces the domestic resonance of a site, rather than
opting for white, anonymous space. Created as a platform for site
specific work, the gallery itself presents a difinitive context for the
work. The space utilizes the upper and lower landings of a staricase
joining the streetlevel entrance and the livingspace of a southside
resedency. In addition to the main gallery space, there is a small
project room off the upper landing. Knock Knock gallery is located at
3658 S. Wolcott: on the NW corner of 37th and Wolcott.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;   &lt;/div&gt;

Coming from different regions and educational backgrounds, the artists &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;C&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;- Sui Jianguo, Zhan Wang, Shen Shaomin, and Chen Wenling &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;C&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt; each employ different materials and visual styles, but they also show commonalities.&lt;span&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;Each work is intensely engaged with important contemporary issues such as the energy crisis, materialism, and globalization.&lt;span&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;They also share inspiration from traditional Chinese art, commercial culture, folk art, and industrial machinery as they explore ways to react to a public space. Contemporary Sculptures from China is presented by the Chicago Department of Cultural Affairs, Millennium Park, in cooperation with Millennium Park Inc., and is sponsored by The Boeing Company with support from the Richard H.

The MCA offers a range of free and wildly interesting events in the cafe

cup of Joe and a tasty snack from Puck&#039;s Cafe.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A whimsical 
art party that unites artists of all skill levels. Not really an art class, not 
quite a party; it is a gathering for those who want to have a hands-on encounter 
with art. The MCA provides art supplies and participants bring ideas. There are 
special activities to guide participants through the evening of art making.

 <title>Visions from a Foxhole: The Wartime Sketches of William Foley</title>

&lt;em&gt;Visions from a Foxhole&lt;/em&gt; includes more than 40 works in pencil, ink, and oil created by William Foley, infantryman in World War II. Many come from the sketchbook he carried during the war; others show the reflections of a veteran over the decades after his service.  
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
This exhibit evokes the scarred winter landscape of the 94th Infantry Division&#039;s push to the Rhine, from shattered cities and blackened forests to the trenches where Foley and his fellow soldiers dug in for battle. There are also a number of personal vignettes of life on the front lines, as soldiers catch a chicken for dinner, take prisoners, explore a soap factory, and stand watch by a wrecked farmhouse. For a time, though his memories of the war were vivid, Foley could only recreate them in black and white. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
 The Pritzker Military Library is open from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday-Friday, and admission is free.

Since its invention, lithography has always been based in the idea that grease and water are mutually rejective and has always remained intimately connected to drawing and painting. Historically the image was created and printed from the surface of prepared limestone slabs but currently the modern ball ground aluminum plate frees the artist from many of the constraints of limestone while producing comparable printed effects. This course includes the theory, drawing techniques, processing, and printing of aluminum plate lithography. Color theory and multiple runs will also be reviewed. This class is open to students of all skill levels and will be taught by Chicago artist Richard Repasky. Class size is limited to 8 individuals. This class costs $300 including all materials except for paper and plates. Plates will be available on the first day of class. Open Studio time for the duration of the class is available for a $2 materials fee per visit.

Learn the exciting processes of printing in color through mezzotint with Chicago-based artist, Connie Wolfe. In this course, you will specifically learn how to print reductive and multi-plate color prints using mezzotint as your starting point. Preparing mezzotint plates and using secondary tonal processes such as aquatint will be covered in this class. Students will learn how to mix color inks, how to transfer key plates to additional plates, how to print multiple colors, and how colors can work together to make visually dynamic images. Additionally, students will learn how to edition, how to prepare paper, and how to sign prints. This class is open to all skill levels, so previous mezzotint knowledge is not necessary. Class size is limited to 8 individuals. This class costs $300 including all materials except for paper and plates. 3” x 4” plates will be available on the first day of class. Open Studio time for the duration of the class is available for a $2 materials fee per visit.

Instituto Cervantes Gallery&lt;br /&gt;
Exhibit will run until March 31st; Free Admission &lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The exhibit “Resiliencia”, organized by the Instituto Cervantes and in collaboration with AECID and PHotoEspaña, presents various works from 10 young artists who participated in the 2009 edition of PHE Discoveries in Latin America. The works in this exhibit present diverse perspectives on society and its ability to adapt and survive while being affected by continuous fluctuations. In Latin America, these creative processes come about in the midst of social, economic, and political turmoil. “Resiliencia” presents the work of professionals who are exploring the changes happening all around them, as well as reflecting on the role of image in our society.&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:cultura@cervantes1.org&quot;&gt;cultura@cervantes1.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://chicago.cervantes.es&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://chicago.cervantes.es&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

As the body is digitally reflected and reborn, are we looking towards technology to experience ourselves in a redeemed form outside of human societal constructs? When technology captures kinetic energy, is our essence embodied in the pixilation, or is our “self” lost in the process? Through dynamic works by Luftwerk, OpenEnded Group, and Troika Ranch, as well as the Synchronous Objects web kiosk created by William Forsythe, Maria Palazzi, and Norah Zuniga Shaw, the exhibition brings forward exploratory ideas that push and pull our perceptions of the body and impulses to move beyond it into uncharted cyber territory.  

A series of related programs, including gallery talks, discussions and workshops will be offered throughout the exhibition. For more information, visit &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.colum.edu/deps&quot; title=&quot;www.colum.edu/deps&quot;&gt;www.colum.edu/deps&lt;/a&gt;. 

&quot;Digital Incarnate&quot; is co-curated by Alycia Scott and Sara Slawnik and presented by Columbia College Chicago’s: Department of Exhibition and Performance Spaces, The Dance Center, the Ellen Stone Belic Institute for the Study of Women and Gender in the Arts and Media and the Interactive Arts and Media Department.&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:sslawnik@colum.edu&quot;&gt;sslawnik@colum.edu&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.colum.edu/deps&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.colum.edu/deps&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

This exhibition, organized by the National Gallery of Art in Washington, DC, evokes the discreet world of individual collecting to tell a less familiar story of nineteenth-century art.&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:smart-museum@uchicago.edu&quot;&gt;smart-museum@uchicago.edu&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://smartmuseum.uchicago.edu/darkersideoflight&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://smartmuseum.uchicago.edu/darkersideoflight&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

A Savannah barber, Davis spent his free time carving a diverse but unified body of highly refined sculpture that reflects his deep faith, humor, and dignity. This retrospective features 109 pieces and is organized by Susan Crawley of the High Museum of Art, Atlanta, in association with King-Tisdell Cottage Foundation of Savannah. The title comes from Davis’s explanation of why he disliked parting with his work: “They’re my treasure. If I sold these, I’d be really poor.”&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:intuit@art.org&quot;&gt;intuit@art.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.art.org&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.art.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

Sacred Geometry: Art of the &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;Mandala&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span&gt;will be presented at Life Force Arts Center Gallery, 3148 N Lincoln Ave, Chicago from February 19 - March 31, 2010&lt;/span&gt;.
This art show explores contemporary artists&#039; creations of mandalas,
which artist Diogenes Lamarche defines as &amp;quot;visual compositions, usually
based in a circular pattern, that incorporate different symbolic and
geometric patterns that can lead to shifts in consciousness,
perspectives, and energy flow.&amp;quot; The exhibit includes &lt;span&gt;paintings, sculpture and mixed media and &lt;/span&gt;features a variety of approaches to the &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;mandala&lt;/span&gt;. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;span&gt;Admission is free and gallery hours are by appointment. For more information, contact 773-327-7224 or &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; href=&quot;http://www.lifeforcearts.org//&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;span&gt;www.LifeForceArts.org&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;. &lt;/span&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Wikipedia
says that in various spiritual traditions, mandalas may be employed for
focusing attention of aspirants and adepts, as a spiritual teaching
tool, for establishing a &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Temenos&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Temenos&quot;&gt;sacred space&lt;/a&gt;, and as an aid to &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meditation&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Meditation&quot;&gt;meditation&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trance&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Trance&quot;&gt;trance&lt;/a&gt; induction. In common use, &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;mandala&lt;/span&gt; has become a generic term for any plan, chart or geometric pattern that represents the &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cosmos&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Cosmos&quot;&gt;cosmos&lt;/a&gt; metaphysically or symbolically, a &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Macrocosm_and_microcosm&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Macrocosm and microcosm&quot;&gt;microcosm&lt;/a&gt; of the &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universe&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Universe&quot;&gt;Universe&lt;/a&gt; from the human perspective.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Pat Otto, one of the artists represented in Art of the &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;Mandala&lt;/span&gt;, is also an art teacher and art therapist. &lt;em&gt;&lt;span&gt;
She says, &amp;quot;My artwork comes from images and urges of psyche that
I notice and let surface. They merge with everyday life experiences,
and I bring them into form through working with physical materials,
such as wood, wax, paint and canvas. I enjoy facilitating art
experiences for others to creatively express themselves in a way that
is deeply intuitive and insightful.  I have found, in my own work and
in working with others, that using the mandala in its most basic
form, a circle with a center, creates a safe and sacred space for
expression.  As Carl Jung said, mandalas are a symbol for the Self
seeking wholeness, and are a vehicle for healing. Often, people are
found to spontaneously express images within a circle framework at
chaotic times in their lives.&amp;quot;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;em&gt; &lt;/em&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Another
artist in the show, Steven Blaine Adams, says, &amp;quot;Crystals grow in sacred
geometric patterns, and their properties have been used since ancient
times for healing and magical purposes. As an energy healer myself, I
help clients through using crystals to balance their physical, mental,
emotional and spiritual energy. These properties make crystals ideal
materials for creating sacred mandalas for use in meditation, and I am
making three crystal mandalas for this show: the Green Man, the Sri
Yantra and the Celtic Cross.&amp;quot; 
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;

Life Force Arts Center (LFAC), 3148 N Lincoln, Chicago, 
is Chicago’s  spiritual art gallery and performance space.Our mission is
creating spiritual awakening and transformation through the visual, 
literary and performing arts. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;left&quot;&gt;
The Center presents spiritually based dance, theater, music, performance art, authors, and visual &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;artists&lt;/span&gt;
of all spiritual traditions. LFAC defines spiritual art as art that  
flows from spiritual practice, art that strives to connect the audience 
with Spirit, and art that creates spiritual healing, transformation, or
awakening. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;
   
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
At LFAC, we recognize 
and nurture the fact that Spirit moves through an individual to create 
in many forms of professional practice: art, teaching and healing. 
Spiritual artists often are teachers and healers as well. LFAC is a 
place where the public (audiences, students, clients, participants) can 
partake of all the modalities in which a practitioner is inspired to 
create. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;
  
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
LFAC offers art exhibits, 
performances and spiritual workshops in our 1200 square foot Main Space.
Visit our Gift Shop to purchase artwork, CD;s and DVD&#039;s, jewelry, books
and other products of the artists, teachers and healers who present at 
our Center. The space is available for rental as well, and is perfect 
for workshops, meetings, parties yoga, dance, theater and other events. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Life
Force Arts Center opened in 2008, and is operated by Life Force Arts 
Foundation, which was founded in 1988 as a non-profit, tax exempt 501 
(c) 3 organization to present the   modern dance and performance work of
Joan Forest Mage. As Joan developed the deeper, spiritual aspects of 
her work as shamanic practice, the company grew to support the 
exploration of the art-spirituality connection.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;   &lt;/div&gt;
  &lt;/div&gt;

&lt;p&gt;
This March and April, Peter Patterson of &lt;em&gt;Patterson Glassworks&lt;/em&gt; in Mundelein, Illinois&lt;em&gt; &lt;/em&gt;is featured in the exhibition window &lt;em&gt;Waterworlds &lt;/em&gt;at the Illinois Artisans Shop, Chicago. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Patterson has worked with glass for over 25 years. He earned a BFA from the Cleveland School of Art in Cleveland, Ohio and has studied extensively at the Penland School of Craft in Penland, North Carolina. His unique use of material during the firing process has distinct visual results. The water-like depth of light is built from several surfaces of glass, color overlays, millefiori and gradually spaced bubbles. In &lt;em&gt;Waterworlds&lt;/em&gt;, Patterson uses a process he invented: incorporating phosphorus into the glass, making it glow in the dark. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&lt;em&gt;With my BFA from college majoring in illustration, I like to think of each of my pieces as an illustration. I can achieve this by pre-fusing some of my decoration or using different technique. &lt;/em&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&lt;em&gt;The inspiration for my different series comes from a variety of things including life experiences, scuba diving, working plant knowledge, graphic design and nature itself. I put these fluid motions of the water along with organic shapes derived from nature into my glass creations.&lt;/em&gt;  -Peter Patterson
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Peter Patterson is shown at galleries across the country and is in private collections worldwide. He is represented by the Illinois Artisans Shop, Chicago. All items on display are for sale. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
The Illinois Artisans Shop, a not-for-profit endeavor, is a showcase for art work created by the state&#039;s finest artisans. It provides an ongoing opportunity to view and purchase the best designed and crafted traditional, contemporary, ethnic and folk art made in Illinois. Illinois Artisans Shop, 100 W. Randolph, Ste. 2-200, 312-814-5321, Monday-Friday 9 - 5.

During the month of March, ART ON ARMITAGE: a window gallery will present Lindsay Obermeyer&#039;s A Glass Prairie, an installation that pays homage to the beauty of our natural landscape.  Fashioned from hundreds of beads and yards of wire, each wildflower is a facsimile of those native to the Midwest.  A Glass Prairie will grow over the duration of the exhibition as new flowers are added to the installation each week, filling the space with color and hope for our fragile ecosystem.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
The public is invited to an &lt;strong&gt;artist&#039;s reception &lt;span class=&quot;yshortcuts&quot;&gt;on Sunday March
7th, from 4pm&lt;/span&gt; to 6pm.&lt;/strong&gt;

A living legend...&lt;br /&gt;
March 2, 2010 thru April 9, 2010&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Nevica Project proudly presents &lt;span&gt;Warren MacKenzie - &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;em&gt;A living legend...&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Warren MacKenzie (b. 1924) is recognized as a true master of 20th
Century ceramic art. Through his traditional wheel-thrown vessels, Mr.
MacKenzie&#039;s pottery embodies strong influences from Bernard Leach and
Shoji Hamada.  His work consistently represents the confidence of where
the potter’s hand is felt and touched through the utilitarian pots that
are produced for use in everyday life.&lt;br /&gt;
This exhibition will feature over 50 different stamped pieces created by this legendary potter.&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:info@theNEVICAproject.com&quot;&gt;info@theNEVICAproject.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.theNEVICAproject.com&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.theNEVICAproject.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

While the focal point of a concert is the perform­ers, a plethora ofvisual elements are involved in creating and enhancing the experience. Artistssuch as graphic designers, illustrators, photographers and many others are allcrucial in creating this environment from the designs on the merchandise to thepromotions for the event. The visual elements that often fade into thebackground- band t-shirts, posters, album art, post-event photos, fashion,advertisements and fliers - are now the focus,givingviewers access to the excess.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:mherrera@colum.edu&quot;&gt;mherrera@colum.edu&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-event-location&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Event Location&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-text field-field-venue&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Venue:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;C33 Gallery.

&lt;span&gt;The
International Museum of Surgical Science (IMSS) presents &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Blooms, Efflorescence, and Other
Dermatological Embellishments&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;—an exhibition of jewelry and photography
by Lauren Kalman—and &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;You thought that you were alone but I caught
your bullet just in time&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;—a sculptural installation by Annie
Heckman—from March 5 through May 21, 2010. These exhibitions, the latest in the
Museum’s ongoing “Anatomy in the Gallery” program, use grotesque ornamentation
to contrast the idealized elements of conventional bodily imagery with the
realities of individual, physical bodies.&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;

Efflorescence, and Other Dermatological Embellishments&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span&gt;
includes Kalman’s jeweled adornments that replicate the skin infections,
lesions, and sores caused by medical conditions such as acne, cancer, herpes,
and syphilis, as well as photographs of models wearing these adornments. &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;You
thought that you were alone but I caught your bullet just in time&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;
comprises glow-in-the-dark house-of-cards structures built of interlocking cut
paper pieces, each drawn upon in graphite and coated with phosphorescent paint by
Chicago artist Heckman to resemble a human or animal bone. The ongoing “Anatomy
in the Gallery” program at IMSS showcases paired exhibitions of medically
inspired contemporary art in the context of the Museum’s historical exhibits
and artifacts, all housed in a landmark turn-of-the-century mansion on Lake
Shore Drive.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:info@imss.org&quot;&gt;info@imss.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.imss.org/anatgallery.htm&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.imss.org/anatgallery.htm&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

Reflets&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;La Poesie Des Affiches&lt;/em&gt;. In &lt;em&gt;Les Reflets&lt;/em&gt; the images explore 
Aurinko&#039;s fascination with the artificial beauty and frozen perfection 
of mannequins and captured faces that inhabit store windows and gaze 
from billboards and advertisements. &lt;em&gt;La Poesie Des Affiches&lt;/em&gt; is a 
continuation of graffiti-based work begun in Madrid, New York and Paris

Chris Heisinger is an artist specializing in stained glass mosaics. Born and raised in Chicago, Illinois, Chris &lt;br /&gt;
has always found ways to express herself with her artwork. While attending Northwestern University, &lt;br /&gt;
she studied the Arts and Crafts movement, Native American and Chinese art history that brings a unique &lt;br /&gt;
flavor to her art pieces. &lt;br /&gt;
Over the years, Chris has worked in acrylics, ceramics, photography, stained glass and mosaics. While &lt;br /&gt;
working artistically in many media, she came back to creating artwork with glass. Since the late 1980’s &lt;br /&gt;
she has developed her artistic style through stained glass and began creating stained glass mosaics in &lt;br /&gt;
2002. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Simply Chicago Art, showcases gifted local area artists and help the community discover these incredibly talented individuals.  Using their work as inspiration, Simply Chicago Art creates an experience within the gallery that is rewarding and enjoyable for the artists and clientele.&lt;br /&gt;

Dogmatic, Art Ledge, Old Gold, Green Lantern, and Alterspace, Knock
Knock gallery embraces the domestic resonance of a site, rather than
opting for white, anonymous space. Created as a platform for site
specific work, the gallery itself presents a difinitive context for the
work. The space utilizes the upper and lower landings of a staricase
joining the streetlevel entrance and the livingspace of a southside
resedency. In addition to the main gallery space, there is a small
project room off the upper landing. Knock Knock gallery is located at
3658 S. Wolcott: on the NW corner of 37th and Wolcott.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;   &lt;/div&gt;

Coming from different regions and educational backgrounds, the artists &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;C&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;- Sui Jianguo, Zhan Wang, Shen Shaomin, and Chen Wenling &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;C&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt; each employ different materials and visual styles, but they also show commonalities.&lt;span&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;Each work is intensely engaged with important contemporary issues such as the energy crisis, materialism, and globalization.&lt;span&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;They also share inspiration from traditional Chinese art, commercial culture, folk art, and industrial machinery as they explore ways to react to a public space. Contemporary Sculptures from China is presented by the Chicago Department of Cultural Affairs, Millennium Park, in cooperation with Millennium Park Inc., and is sponsored by The Boeing Company with support from the Richard H.

The first Tuesday of the month 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
The MCA offers a range of free and wildly interesting events in the cafe 
almost every Tuesday evening from October through April. Museum admission is 
free to everyone on Tuesdays so come early and visit the galleries and then 
stick around for constructive entertainment accompanied by a glass of wine or a 
cup of Joe and a tasty snack from Puck&#039;s Cafe.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A whimsical 
art party that unites artists of all skill levels. Not really an art class, not 
quite a party; it is a gathering for those who want to have a hands-on encounter 
with art. The MCA provides art supplies and participants bring ideas. There are 
special activities to guide participants through the evening of art making.

The MCA documents contemporary visual culture through painting, sculpture, photography, video and film, and performance. Located in the heart of downtown Chicago, the MCA boasts a gift store, bookstore, restaurant, 300-seat theater, and a terraced sculpture garden with a great view of Lake Michigan.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Mission Statement&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The mission of the MCA is to be an innovative and compelling center of contemporary art where the public can directly experience the work and ideas of living artists, and understand the historical, social, and cultural context of the art of our time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Museum boldly interweaves exhibitions, performances, collections, and educational programs to excite, challenge, and illuminate our visitors and to provide insight into the creative process.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The MCA aspires to engage a broad and diverse audience, create a sense of community and be a place for contemplation, stimulation, and discussion about contemporary art and culture.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;   &lt;/div&gt;

 <title>Visions from a Foxhole: The Wartime Sketches of William Foley</title>

&lt;em&gt;Visions from a Foxhole&lt;/em&gt; includes more than 40 works in pencil, ink, and oil created by William Foley, infantryman in World War II. Many come from the sketchbook he carried during the war; others show the reflections of a veteran over the decades after his service.  
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
This exhibit evokes the scarred winter landscape of the 94th Infantry Division&#039;s push to the Rhine, from shattered cities and blackened forests to the trenches where Foley and his fellow soldiers dug in for battle. There are also a number of personal vignettes of life on the front lines, as soldiers catch a chicken for dinner, take prisoners, explore a soap factory, and stand watch by a wrecked farmhouse. For a time, though his memories of the war were vivid, Foley could only recreate them in black and white. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
 The Pritzker Military Library is open from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday-Friday, and admission is free.

Since its invention, lithography has always been based in the idea that grease and water are mutually rejective and has always remained intimately connected to drawing and painting. Historically the image was created and printed from the surface of prepared limestone slabs but currently the modern ball ground aluminum plate frees the artist from many of the constraints of limestone while producing comparable printed effects. This course includes the theory, drawing techniques, processing, and printing of aluminum plate lithography. Color theory and multiple runs will also be reviewed. This class is open to students of all skill levels and will be taught by Chicago artist Richard Repasky. Class size is limited to 8 individuals. This class costs $300 including all materials except for paper and plates. Plates will be available on the first day of class. Open Studio time for the duration of the class is available for a $2 materials fee per visit.

Learn the exciting processes of printing in color through mezzotint with Chicago-based artist, Connie Wolfe. In this course, you will specifically learn how to print reductive and multi-plate color prints using mezzotint as your starting point. Preparing mezzotint plates and using secondary tonal processes such as aquatint will be covered in this class. Students will learn how to mix color inks, how to transfer key plates to additional plates, how to print multiple colors, and how colors can work together to make visually dynamic images. Additionally, students will learn how to edition, how to prepare paper, and how to sign prints. This class is open to all skill levels, so previous mezzotint knowledge is not necessary. Class size is limited to 8 individuals. This class costs $300 including all materials except for paper and plates. 3” x 4” plates will be available on the first day of class. Open Studio time for the duration of the class is available for a $2 materials fee per visit.

Exhibit will run until March 31st; Free Admission &lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The exhibit “Resiliencia”, organized by the Instituto Cervantes and in collaboration with AECID and PHotoEspaña, presents various works from 10 young artists who participated in the 2009 edition of PHE Discoveries in Latin America. The works in this exhibit present diverse perspectives on society and its ability to adapt and survive while being affected by continuous fluctuations. In Latin America, these creative processes come about in the midst of social, economic, and political turmoil. “Resiliencia” presents the work of professionals who are exploring the changes happening all around them, as well as reflecting on the role of image in our society.&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:cultura@cervantes1.org&quot;&gt;cultura@cervantes1.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://chicago.cervantes.es&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://chicago.cervantes.es&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

As the body is digitally reflected and reborn, are we looking towards technology to experience ourselves in a redeemed form outside of human societal constructs? When technology captures kinetic energy, is our essence embodied in the pixilation, or is our “self” lost in the process? Through dynamic works by Luftwerk, OpenEnded Group, and Troika Ranch, as well as the Synchronous Objects web kiosk created by William Forsythe, Maria Palazzi, and Norah Zuniga Shaw, the exhibition brings forward exploratory ideas that push and pull our perceptions of the body and impulses to move beyond it into uncharted cyber territory.  

A series of related programs, including gallery talks, discussions and workshops will be offered throughout the exhibition. For more information, visit &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.colum.edu/deps&quot; title=&quot;www.colum.edu/deps&quot;&gt;www.colum.edu/deps&lt;/a&gt;. 

&quot;Digital Incarnate&quot; is co-curated by Alycia Scott and Sara Slawnik and presented by Columbia College Chicago’s: Department of Exhibition and Performance Spaces, The Dance Center, the Ellen Stone Belic Institute for the Study of Women and Gender in the Arts and Media and the Interactive Arts and Media Department.&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:sslawnik@colum.edu&quot;&gt;sslawnik@colum.edu&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.colum.edu/deps&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.colum.edu/deps&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

A Savannah barber, Davis spent his free time carving a diverse but unified body of highly refined sculpture that reflects his deep faith, humor, and dignity. This retrospective features 109 pieces and is organized by Susan Crawley of the High Museum of Art, Atlanta, in association with King-Tisdell Cottage Foundation of Savannah. The title comes from Davis’s explanation of why he disliked parting with his work: “They’re my treasure. If I sold these, I’d be really poor.”&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:intuit@art.org&quot;&gt;intuit@art.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.art.org&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.art.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

Sacred Geometry: Art of the &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;Mandala&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span&gt;will be presented at Life Force Arts Center Gallery, 3148 N Lincoln Ave, Chicago from February 19 - March 31, 2010&lt;/span&gt;.
This art show explores contemporary artists&#039; creations of mandalas,
which artist Diogenes Lamarche defines as &amp;quot;visual compositions, usually
based in a circular pattern, that incorporate different symbolic and
geometric patterns that can lead to shifts in consciousness,
perspectives, and energy flow.&amp;quot; The exhibit includes &lt;span&gt;paintings, sculpture and mixed media and &lt;/span&gt;features a variety of approaches to the &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;mandala&lt;/span&gt;. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;span&gt;Admission is free and gallery hours are by appointment. For more information, contact 773-327-7224 or &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; href=&quot;http://www.lifeforcearts.org//&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;span&gt;www.LifeForceArts.org&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;. &lt;/span&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Wikipedia
says that in various spiritual traditions, mandalas may be employed for
focusing attention of aspirants and adepts, as a spiritual teaching
tool, for establishing a &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Temenos&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Temenos&quot;&gt;sacred space&lt;/a&gt;, and as an aid to &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meditation&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Meditation&quot;&gt;meditation&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trance&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Trance&quot;&gt;trance&lt;/a&gt; induction. In common use, &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;mandala&lt;/span&gt; has become a generic term for any plan, chart or geometric pattern that represents the &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cosmos&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Cosmos&quot;&gt;cosmos&lt;/a&gt; metaphysically or symbolically, a &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Macrocosm_and_microcosm&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Macrocosm and microcosm&quot;&gt;microcosm&lt;/a&gt; of the &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universe&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Universe&quot;&gt;Universe&lt;/a&gt; from the human perspective.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Pat Otto, one of the artists represented in Art of the &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;Mandala&lt;/span&gt;, is also an art teacher and art therapist. &lt;em&gt;&lt;span&gt;
She says, &amp;quot;My artwork comes from images and urges of psyche that
I notice and let surface. They merge with everyday life experiences,
and I bring them into form through working with physical materials,
such as wood, wax, paint and canvas. I enjoy facilitating art
experiences for others to creatively express themselves in a way that
is deeply intuitive and insightful.  I have found, in my own work and
in working with others, that using the mandala in its most basic
form, a circle with a center, creates a safe and sacred space for
expression.  As Carl Jung said, mandalas are a symbol for the Self
seeking wholeness, and are a vehicle for healing. Often, people are
found to spontaneously express images within a circle framework at
chaotic times in their lives.&amp;quot;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;em&gt; &lt;/em&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Another
artist in the show, Steven Blaine Adams, says, &amp;quot;Crystals grow in sacred
geometric patterns, and their properties have been used since ancient
times for healing and magical purposes. As an energy healer myself, I
help clients through using crystals to balance their physical, mental,
emotional and spiritual energy. These properties make crystals ideal
materials for creating sacred mandalas for use in meditation, and I am
making three crystal mandalas for this show: the Green Man, the Sri
Yantra and the Celtic Cross.&amp;quot; 
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;

Life Force Arts Center (LFAC), 3148 N Lincoln, Chicago, 
is Chicago’s  spiritual art gallery and performance space.Our mission is
creating spiritual awakening and transformation through the visual, 
literary and performing arts. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;left&quot;&gt;
The Center presents spiritually based dance, theater, music, performance art, authors, and visual &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;artists&lt;/span&gt;
of all spiritual traditions. LFAC defines spiritual art as art that  
flows from spiritual practice, art that strives to connect the audience 
with Spirit, and art that creates spiritual healing, transformation, or
awakening. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;
   
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
At LFAC, we recognize 
and nurture the fact that Spirit moves through an individual to create 
in many forms of professional practice: art, teaching and healing. 
Spiritual artists often are teachers and healers as well. LFAC is a 
place where the public (audiences, students, clients, participants) can 
partake of all the modalities in which a practitioner is inspired to 
create. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;
  
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
LFAC offers art exhibits, 
performances and spiritual workshops in our 1200 square foot Main Space.
Visit our Gift Shop to purchase artwork, CD;s and DVD&#039;s, jewelry, books
and other products of the artists, teachers and healers who present at 
our Center. The space is available for rental as well, and is perfect 
for workshops, meetings, parties yoga, dance, theater and other events. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Life
Force Arts Center opened in 2008, and is operated by Life Force Arts 
Foundation, which was founded in 1988 as a non-profit, tax exempt 501 
(c) 3 organization to present the   modern dance and performance work of
Joan Forest Mage. As Joan developed the deeper, spiritual aspects of 
her work as shamanic practice, the company grew to support the 
exploration of the art-spirituality connection.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;   &lt;/div&gt;
  &lt;/div&gt;

&lt;p&gt;
This March and April, Peter Patterson of &lt;em&gt;Patterson Glassworks&lt;/em&gt; in Mundelein, Illinois&lt;em&gt; &lt;/em&gt;is featured in the exhibition window &lt;em&gt;Waterworlds &lt;/em&gt;at the Illinois Artisans Shop, Chicago. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Patterson has worked with glass for over 25 years. He earned a BFA from the Cleveland School of Art in Cleveland, Ohio and has studied extensively at the Penland School of Craft in Penland, North Carolina. His unique use of material during the firing process has distinct visual results. The water-like depth of light is built from several surfaces of glass, color overlays, millefiori and gradually spaced bubbles. In &lt;em&gt;Waterworlds&lt;/em&gt;, Patterson uses a process he invented: incorporating phosphorus into the glass, making it glow in the dark. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&lt;em&gt;With my BFA from college majoring in illustration, I like to think of each of my pieces as an illustration. I can achieve this by pre-fusing some of my decoration or using different technique. &lt;/em&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&lt;em&gt;The inspiration for my different series comes from a variety of things including life experiences, scuba diving, working plant knowledge, graphic design and nature itself. I put these fluid motions of the water along with organic shapes derived from nature into my glass creations.&lt;/em&gt;  -Peter Patterson
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Peter Patterson is shown at galleries across the country and is in private collections worldwide. He is represented by the Illinois Artisans Shop, Chicago. All items on display are for sale. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
The Illinois Artisans Shop, a not-for-profit endeavor, is a showcase for art work created by the state&#039;s finest artisans. It provides an ongoing opportunity to view and purchase the best designed and crafted traditional, contemporary, ethnic and folk art made in Illinois. Illinois Artisans Shop, 100 W. Randolph, Ste. 2-200, 312-814-5321, Monday-Friday 9 - 5.

During the month of March, ART ON ARMITAGE: a window gallery will present Lindsay Obermeyer&#039;s A Glass Prairie, an installation that pays homage to the beauty of our natural landscape.  Fashioned from hundreds of beads and yards of wire, each wildflower is a facsimile of those native to the Midwest.  A Glass Prairie will grow over the duration of the exhibition as new flowers are added to the installation each week, filling the space with color and hope for our fragile ecosystem.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
The public is invited to an &lt;strong&gt;artist&#039;s reception &lt;span class=&quot;yshortcuts&quot;&gt;on Sunday March
7th, from 4pm&lt;/span&gt; to 6pm.&lt;/strong&gt;

A living legend...&lt;br /&gt;
March 2, 2010 thru April 9, 2010&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Nevica Project proudly presents &lt;span&gt;Warren MacKenzie - &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;em&gt;A living legend...&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Warren MacKenzie (b. 1924) is recognized as a true master of 20th
Century ceramic art. Through his traditional wheel-thrown vessels, Mr.
MacKenzie&#039;s pottery embodies strong influences from Bernard Leach and
Shoji Hamada.  His work consistently represents the confidence of where
the potter’s hand is felt and touched through the utilitarian pots that
are produced for use in everyday life.&lt;br /&gt;
This exhibition will feature over 50 different stamped pieces created by this legendary potter.&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:info@theNEVICAproject.com&quot;&gt;info@theNEVICAproject.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.theNEVICAproject.com&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.theNEVICAproject.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

While the focal point of a concert is the perform­ers, a plethora ofvisual elements are involved in creating and enhancing the experience. Artistssuch as graphic designers, illustrators, photographers and many others are allcrucial in creating this environment from the designs on the merchandise to thepromotions for the event. The visual elements that often fade into thebackground- band t-shirts, posters, album art, post-event photos, fashion,advertisements and fliers - are now the focus,givingviewers access to the excess.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:mherrera@colum.edu&quot;&gt;mherrera@colum.edu&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-event-location&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Event Location&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-text field-field-venue&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Venue:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;C33 Gallery.

&lt;span&gt;The
International Museum of Surgical Science (IMSS) presents &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Blooms, Efflorescence, and Other
Dermatological Embellishments&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;—an exhibition of jewelry and photography
by Lauren Kalman—and &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;You thought that you were alone but I caught
your bullet just in time&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;—a sculptural installation by Annie
Heckman—from March 5 through May 21, 2010. These exhibitions, the latest in the
Museum’s ongoing “Anatomy in the Gallery” program, use grotesque ornamentation
to contrast the idealized elements of conventional bodily imagery with the
realities of individual, physical bodies.&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span&gt;Blooms,
Efflorescence, and Other Dermatological Embellishments&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span&gt;
includes Kalman’s jeweled adornments that replicate the skin infections,
lesions, and sores caused by medical conditions such as acne, cancer, herpes,
and syphilis, as well as photographs of models wearing these adornments. &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;You
thought that you were alone but I caught your bullet just in time&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;
comprises glow-in-the-dark house-of-cards structures built of interlocking cut
paper pieces, each drawn upon in graphite and coated with phosphorescent paint by
Chicago artist Heckman to resemble a human or animal bone. The ongoing “Anatomy
in the Gallery” program at IMSS showcases paired exhibitions of medically
inspired contemporary art in the context of the Museum’s historical exhibits
and artifacts, all housed in a landmark turn-of-the-century mansion on Lake
Shore Drive.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:info@imss.org&quot;&gt;info@imss.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.imss.org/anatgallery.htm&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.imss.org/anatgallery.htm&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

Reflets&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;La Poesie Des Affiches&lt;/em&gt;. In &lt;em&gt;Les Reflets&lt;/em&gt; the images explore 
Aurinko&#039;s fascination with the artificial beauty and frozen perfection 
of mannequins and captured faces that inhabit store windows and gaze 
from billboards and advertisements. &lt;em&gt;La Poesie Des Affiches&lt;/em&gt; is a 
continuation of graffiti-based work begun in Madrid, New York and Paris 
years ago. Aurinko examines the layering of signage that appears in 
large cities, often plastered over &amp;quot;post no bills&amp;quot; signs, in languages 
that mirror the culture of a country.&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:bryna.shields@chicagophoto.org&quot;&gt;bryna.shields@chicagophoto.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.chicagophoto.org&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.chicagophoto.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-event-location&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Event Location&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-text field-field-venue&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Venue:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;Chicago Photography Center&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-text field-field-phone&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Phone Number:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;773-549-1631&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-postal field-field-postal-contact&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Address:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3301 N Lincoln Ave&lt;br /&gt;Chicago, IL 60657&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://maps.google.com/maps?q=3301+N+Lincoln+Ave%2C+Chicago%2C+IL%2C+60657&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Google Map&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-text field-field-neighborhood&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Neighborhood:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;Lakeview&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/fieldset&gt;

Chris Heisinger is an artist specializing in stained glass mosaics. Born and raised in Chicago, Illinois, Chris &lt;br /&gt;
has always found ways to express herself with her artwork. While attending Northwestern University, &lt;br /&gt;
she studied the Arts and Crafts movement, Native American and Chinese art history that brings a unique &lt;br /&gt;
flavor to her art pieces. &lt;br /&gt;
Over the years, Chris has worked in acrylics, ceramics, photography, stained glass and mosaics. While &lt;br /&gt;
working artistically in many media, she came back to creating artwork with glass. Since the late 1980’s &lt;br /&gt;
she has developed her artistic style through stained glass and began creating stained glass mosaics in &lt;br /&gt;
2002. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Simply Chicago Art, showcases gifted local area artists and help the community discover these incredibly talented individuals.  Using their work as inspiration, Simply Chicago Art creates an experience within the gallery that is rewarding and enjoyable for the artists and clientele.&lt;br /&gt;

Dogmatic, Art Ledge, Old Gold, Green Lantern, and Alterspace, Knock
Knock gallery embraces the domestic resonance of a site, rather than
opting for white, anonymous space. Created as a platform for site
specific work, the gallery itself presents a difinitive context for the
work. The space utilizes the upper and lower landings of a staricase
joining the streetlevel entrance and the livingspace of a southside
resedency. In addition to the main gallery space, there is a small
project room off the upper landing. Knock Knock gallery is located at
3658 S. Wolcott: on the NW corner of 37th and Wolcott.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;   &lt;/div&gt;

Coming from different regions and educational backgrounds, the artists &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;C&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;- Sui Jianguo, Zhan Wang, Shen Shaomin, and Chen Wenling &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;C&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt; each employ different materials and visual styles, but they also show commonalities.&lt;span&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;Each work is intensely engaged with important contemporary issues such as the energy crisis, materialism, and globalization.&lt;span&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;They also share inspiration from traditional Chinese art, commercial culture, folk art, and industrial machinery as they explore ways to react to a public space. Contemporary Sculptures from China is presented by the Chicago Department of Cultural Affairs, Millennium Park, in cooperation with Millennium Park Inc., and is sponsored by The Boeing Company with support from the Richard H.

The MCA offers a range of free and wildly interesting events in the cafe

cup of Joe and a tasty snack from Puck&#039;s Cafe.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A whimsical 
art party that unites artists of all skill levels. Not really an art class, not 
quite a party; it is a gathering for those who want to have a hands-on encounter 
with art. The MCA provides art supplies and participants bring ideas. There are 
special activities to guide participants through the evening of art making.

 <title>Visions from a Foxhole: The Wartime Sketches of William Foley</title>

&lt;em&gt;Visions from a Foxhole&lt;/em&gt; includes more than 40 works in pencil, ink, and oil created by William Foley, infantryman in World War II. Many come from the sketchbook he carried during the war; others show the reflections of a veteran over the decades after his service.  
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
This exhibit evokes the scarred winter landscape of the 94th Infantry Division&#039;s push to the Rhine, from shattered cities and blackened forests to the trenches where Foley and his fellow soldiers dug in for battle. There are also a number of personal vignettes of life on the front lines, as soldiers catch a chicken for dinner, take prisoners, explore a soap factory, and stand watch by a wrecked farmhouse. For a time, though his memories of the war were vivid, Foley could only recreate them in black and white. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
 The Pritzker Military Library is open from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday-Friday, and admission is free.

Since its invention, lithography has always been based in the idea that grease and water are mutually rejective and has always remained intimately connected to drawing and painting. Historically the image was created and printed from the surface of prepared limestone slabs but currently the modern ball ground aluminum plate frees the artist from many of the constraints of limestone while producing comparable printed effects. This course includes the theory, drawing techniques, processing, and printing of aluminum plate lithography. Color theory and multiple runs will also be reviewed. This class is open to students of all skill levels and will be taught by Chicago artist Richard Repasky. Class size is limited to 8 individuals. This class costs $300 including all materials except for paper and plates. Plates will be available on the first day of class. Open Studio time for the duration of the class is available for a $2 materials fee per visit.

Learn the exciting processes of printing in color through mezzotint with Chicago-based artist, Connie Wolfe. In this course, you will specifically learn how to print reductive and multi-plate color prints using mezzotint as your starting point. Preparing mezzotint plates and using secondary tonal processes such as aquatint will be covered in this class. Students will learn how to mix color inks, how to transfer key plates to additional plates, how to print multiple colors, and how colors can work together to make visually dynamic images. Additionally, students will learn how to edition, how to prepare paper, and how to sign prints. This class is open to all skill levels, so previous mezzotint knowledge is not necessary. Class size is limited to 8 individuals. This class costs $300 including all materials except for paper and plates. 3” x 4” plates will be available on the first day of class. Open Studio time for the duration of the class is available for a $2 materials fee per visit.

Instituto Cervantes Gallery&lt;br /&gt;
Exhibit will run until March 31st; Free Admission &lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The exhibit “Resiliencia”, organized by the Instituto Cervantes and in collaboration with AECID and PHotoEspaña, presents various works from 10 young artists who participated in the 2009 edition of PHE Discoveries in Latin America. The works in this exhibit present diverse perspectives on society and its ability to adapt and survive while being affected by continuous fluctuations. In Latin America, these creative processes come about in the midst of social, economic, and political turmoil. “Resiliencia” presents the work of professionals who are exploring the changes happening all around them, as well as reflecting on the role of image in our society.&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:cultura@cervantes1.org&quot;&gt;cultura@cervantes1.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://chicago.cervantes.es&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://chicago.cervantes.es&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

As the body is digitally reflected and reborn, are we looking towards technology to experience ourselves in a redeemed form outside of human societal constructs? When technology captures kinetic energy, is our essence embodied in the pixilation, or is our “self” lost in the process? Through dynamic works by Luftwerk, OpenEnded Group, and Troika Ranch, as well as the Synchronous Objects web kiosk created by William Forsythe, Maria Palazzi, and Norah Zuniga Shaw, the exhibition brings forward exploratory ideas that push and pull our perceptions of the body and impulses to move beyond it into uncharted cyber territory.  

A series of related programs, including gallery talks, discussions and workshops will be offered throughout the exhibition. For more information, visit &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.colum.edu/deps&quot; title=&quot;www.colum.edu/deps&quot;&gt;www.colum.edu/deps&lt;/a&gt;. 

&quot;Digital Incarnate&quot; is co-curated by Alycia Scott and Sara Slawnik and presented by Columbia College Chicago’s: Department of Exhibition and Performance Spaces, The Dance Center, the Ellen Stone Belic Institute for the Study of Women and Gender in the Arts and Media and the Interactive Arts and Media Department.&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:sslawnik@colum.edu&quot;&gt;sslawnik@colum.edu&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.colum.edu/deps&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.colum.edu/deps&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

This exhibition, organized by the National Gallery of Art in Washington, DC, evokes the discreet world of individual collecting to tell a less familiar story of nineteenth-century art.&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:smart-museum@uchicago.edu&quot;&gt;smart-museum@uchicago.edu&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://smartmuseum.uchicago.edu/darkersideoflight&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://smartmuseum.uchicago.edu/darkersideoflight&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

A Savannah barber, Davis spent his free time carving a diverse but unified body of highly refined sculpture that reflects his deep faith, humor, and dignity. This retrospective features 109 pieces and is organized by Susan Crawley of the High Museum of Art, Atlanta, in association with King-Tisdell Cottage Foundation of Savannah. The title comes from Davis’s explanation of why he disliked parting with his work: “They’re my treasure. If I sold these, I’d be really poor.”&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:intuit@art.org&quot;&gt;intuit@art.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.art.org&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.art.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

Sacred Geometry: Art of the &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;Mandala&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span&gt;will be presented at Life Force Arts Center Gallery, 3148 N Lincoln Ave, Chicago from February 19 - March 31, 2010&lt;/span&gt;.
This art show explores contemporary artists&#039; creations of mandalas,
which artist Diogenes Lamarche defines as &amp;quot;visual compositions, usually
based in a circular pattern, that incorporate different symbolic and
geometric patterns that can lead to shifts in consciousness,
perspectives, and energy flow.&amp;quot; The exhibit includes &lt;span&gt;paintings, sculpture and mixed media and &lt;/span&gt;features a variety of approaches to the &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;mandala&lt;/span&gt;. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;span&gt;Admission is free and gallery hours are by appointment. For more information, contact 773-327-7224 or &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; href=&quot;http://www.lifeforcearts.org//&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;span&gt;www.LifeForceArts.org&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;. &lt;/span&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Wikipedia
says that in various spiritual traditions, mandalas may be employed for
focusing attention of aspirants and adepts, as a spiritual teaching
tool, for establishing a &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Temenos&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Temenos&quot;&gt;sacred space&lt;/a&gt;, and as an aid to &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meditation&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Meditation&quot;&gt;meditation&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trance&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Trance&quot;&gt;trance&lt;/a&gt; induction. In common use, &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;mandala&lt;/span&gt; has become a generic term for any plan, chart or geometric pattern that represents the &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cosmos&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Cosmos&quot;&gt;cosmos&lt;/a&gt; metaphysically or symbolically, a &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Macrocosm_and_microcosm&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Macrocosm and microcosm&quot;&gt;microcosm&lt;/a&gt; of the &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universe&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Universe&quot;&gt;Universe&lt;/a&gt; from the human perspective.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Pat Otto, one of the artists represented in Art of the &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;Mandala&lt;/span&gt;, is also an art teacher and art therapist. &lt;em&gt;&lt;span&gt;
She says, &amp;quot;My artwork comes from images and urges of psyche that
I notice and let surface. They merge with everyday life experiences,
and I bring them into form through working with physical materials,
such as wood, wax, paint and canvas. I enjoy facilitating art
experiences for others to creatively express themselves in a way that
is deeply intuitive and insightful.  I have found, in my own work and
in working with others, that using the mandala in its most basic
form, a circle with a center, creates a safe and sacred space for
expression.  As Carl Jung said, mandalas are a symbol for the Self
seeking wholeness, and are a vehicle for healing. Often, people are
found to spontaneously express images within a circle framework at
chaotic times in their lives.&amp;quot;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;em&gt; &lt;/em&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Another
artist in the show, Steven Blaine Adams, says, &amp;quot;Crystals grow in sacred
geometric patterns, and their properties have been used since ancient
times for healing and magical purposes. As an energy healer myself, I
help clients through using crystals to balance their physical, mental,
emotional and spiritual energy. These properties make crystals ideal
materials for creating sacred mandalas for use in meditation, and I am
making three crystal mandalas for this show: the Green Man, the Sri
Yantra and the Celtic Cross.&amp;quot; 
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;

Life Force Arts Center (LFAC), 3148 N Lincoln, Chicago, 
is Chicago’s  spiritual art gallery and performance space.Our mission is
creating spiritual awakening and transformation through the visual, 
literary and performing arts. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;left&quot;&gt;
The Center presents spiritually based dance, theater, music, performance art, authors, and visual &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;artists&lt;/span&gt;
of all spiritual traditions. LFAC defines spiritual art as art that  
flows from spiritual practice, art that strives to connect the audience 
with Spirit, and art that creates spiritual healing, transformation, or
awakening. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;
   
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
At LFAC, we recognize 
and nurture the fact that Spirit moves through an individual to create 
in many forms of professional practice: art, teaching and healing. 
Spiritual artists often are teachers and healers as well. LFAC is a 
place where the public (audiences, students, clients, participants) can 
partake of all the modalities in which a practitioner is inspired to 
create. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;
  
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
LFAC offers art exhibits, 
performances and spiritual workshops in our 1200 square foot Main Space.
Visit our Gift Shop to purchase artwork, CD;s and DVD&#039;s, jewelry, books
and other products of the artists, teachers and healers who present at 
our Center. The space is available for rental as well, and is perfect 
for workshops, meetings, parties yoga, dance, theater and other events. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Life
Force Arts Center opened in 2008, and is operated by Life Force Arts 
Foundation, which was founded in 1988 as a non-profit, tax exempt 501 
(c) 3 organization to present the   modern dance and performance work of
Joan Forest Mage. As Joan developed the deeper, spiritual aspects of 
her work as shamanic practice, the company grew to support the 
exploration of the art-spirituality connection.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;   &lt;/div&gt;
  &lt;/div&gt;

&lt;p&gt;
This March and April, Peter Patterson of &lt;em&gt;Patterson Glassworks&lt;/em&gt; in Mundelein, Illinois&lt;em&gt; &lt;/em&gt;is featured in the exhibition window &lt;em&gt;Waterworlds &lt;/em&gt;at the Illinois Artisans Shop, Chicago. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Patterson has worked with glass for over 25 years. He earned a BFA from the Cleveland School of Art in Cleveland, Ohio and has studied extensively at the Penland School of Craft in Penland, North Carolina. His unique use of material during the firing process has distinct visual results. The water-like depth of light is built from several surfaces of glass, color overlays, millefiori and gradually spaced bubbles. In &lt;em&gt;Waterworlds&lt;/em&gt;, Patterson uses a process he invented: incorporating phosphorus into the glass, making it glow in the dark. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&lt;em&gt;With my BFA from college majoring in illustration, I like to think of each of my pieces as an illustration. I can achieve this by pre-fusing some of my decoration or using different technique. &lt;/em&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&lt;em&gt;The inspiration for my different series comes from a variety of things including life experiences, scuba diving, working plant knowledge, graphic design and nature itself. I put these fluid motions of the water along with organic shapes derived from nature into my glass creations.&lt;/em&gt;  -Peter Patterson
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Peter Patterson is shown at galleries across the country and is in private collections worldwide. He is represented by the Illinois Artisans Shop, Chicago. All items on display are for sale. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
The Illinois Artisans Shop, a not-for-profit endeavor, is a showcase for art work created by the state&#039;s finest artisans. It provides an ongoing opportunity to view and purchase the best designed and crafted traditional, contemporary, ethnic and folk art made in Illinois. Illinois Artisans Shop, 100 W. Randolph, Ste. 2-200, 312-814-5321, Monday-Friday 9 - 5.

During the month of March, ART ON ARMITAGE: a window gallery will present Lindsay Obermeyer&#039;s A Glass Prairie, an installation that pays homage to the beauty of our natural landscape.  Fashioned from hundreds of beads and yards of wire, each wildflower is a facsimile of those native to the Midwest.  A Glass Prairie will grow over the duration of the exhibition as new flowers are added to the installation each week, filling the space with color and hope for our fragile ecosystem.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
The public is invited to an &lt;strong&gt;artist&#039;s reception &lt;span class=&quot;yshortcuts&quot;&gt;on Sunday March
7th, from 4pm&lt;/span&gt; to 6pm.&lt;/strong&gt;

A living legend...&lt;br /&gt;
March 2, 2010 thru April 9, 2010&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Nevica Project proudly presents &lt;span&gt;Warren MacKenzie - &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;em&gt;A living legend...&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Warren MacKenzie (b. 1924) is recognized as a true master of 20th
Century ceramic art. Through his traditional wheel-thrown vessels, Mr.
MacKenzie&#039;s pottery embodies strong influences from Bernard Leach and
Shoji Hamada.  His work consistently represents the confidence of where
the potter’s hand is felt and touched through the utilitarian pots that
are produced for use in everyday life.&lt;br /&gt;
This exhibition will feature over 50 different stamped pieces created by this legendary potter.&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:info@theNEVICAproject.com&quot;&gt;info@theNEVICAproject.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.theNEVICAproject.com&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.theNEVICAproject.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

While the focal point of a concert is the perform­ers, a plethora ofvisual elements are involved in creating and enhancing the experience. Artistssuch as graphic designers, illustrators, photographers and many others are allcrucial in creating this environment from the designs on the merchandise to thepromotions for the event. The visual elements that often fade into thebackground- band t-shirts, posters, album art, post-event photos, fashion,advertisements and fliers - are now the focus,givingviewers access to the excess.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:mherrera@colum.edu&quot;&gt;mherrera@colum.edu&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-event-location&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Event Location&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-text field-field-venue&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Venue:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;C33 Gallery.

&lt;span&gt;The
International Museum of Surgical Science (IMSS) presents &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Blooms, Efflorescence, and Other
Dermatological Embellishments&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;—an exhibition of jewelry and photography
by Lauren Kalman—and &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;You thought that you were alone but I caught
your bullet just in time&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;—a sculptural installation by Annie
Heckman—from March 5 through May 21, 2010. These exhibitions, the latest in the
Museum’s ongoing “Anatomy in the Gallery” program, use grotesque ornamentation
to contrast the idealized elements of conventional bodily imagery with the
realities of individual, physical bodies.&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;

Efflorescence, and Other Dermatological Embellishments&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span&gt;
includes Kalman’s jeweled adornments that replicate the skin infections,
lesions, and sores caused by medical conditions such as acne, cancer, herpes,
and syphilis, as well as photographs of models wearing these adornments. &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;You
thought that you were alone but I caught your bullet just in time&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;
comprises glow-in-the-dark house-of-cards structures built of interlocking cut
paper pieces, each drawn upon in graphite and coated with phosphorescent paint by
Chicago artist Heckman to resemble a human or animal bone. The ongoing “Anatomy
in the Gallery” program at IMSS showcases paired exhibitions of medically
inspired contemporary art in the context of the Museum’s historical exhibits
and artifacts, all housed in a landmark turn-of-the-century mansion on Lake
Shore Drive.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:info@imss.org&quot;&gt;info@imss.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.imss.org/anatgallery.htm&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.imss.org/anatgallery.htm&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

Reflets&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;La Poesie Des Affiches&lt;/em&gt;. In &lt;em&gt;Les Reflets&lt;/em&gt; the images explore 
Aurinko&#039;s fascination with the artificial beauty and frozen perfection 
of mannequins and captured faces that inhabit store windows and gaze 
from billboards and advertisements. &lt;em&gt;La Poesie Des Affiches&lt;/em&gt; is a 
continuation of graffiti-based work begun in Madrid, New York and Paris

Chris Heisinger is an artist specializing in stained glass mosaics. Born and raised in Chicago, Illinois, Chris &lt;br /&gt;
has always found ways to express herself with her artwork. While attending Northwestern University, &lt;br /&gt;
she studied the Arts and Crafts movement, Native American and Chinese art history that brings a unique &lt;br /&gt;
flavor to her art pieces. &lt;br /&gt;
Over the years, Chris has worked in acrylics, ceramics, photography, stained glass and mosaics. While &lt;br /&gt;
working artistically in many media, she came back to creating artwork with glass. Since the late 1980’s &lt;br /&gt;
she has developed her artistic style through stained glass and began creating stained glass mosaics in &lt;br /&gt;
2002. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Simply Chicago Art, showcases gifted local area artists and help the community discover these incredibly talented individuals.  Using their work as inspiration, Simply Chicago Art creates an experience within the gallery that is rewarding and enjoyable for the artists and clientele.&lt;br /&gt;

Dogmatic, Art Ledge, Old Gold, Green Lantern, and Alterspace, Knock
Knock gallery embraces the domestic resonance of a site, rather than
opting for white, anonymous space. Created as a platform for site
specific work, the gallery itself presents a difinitive context for the
work. The space utilizes the upper and lower landings of a staricase
joining the streetlevel entrance and the livingspace of a southside
resedency. In addition to the main gallery space, there is a small
project room off the upper landing. Knock Knock gallery is located at
3658 S. Wolcott: on the NW corner of 37th and Wolcott.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;   &lt;/div&gt;

Coming from different regions and educational backgrounds, the artists &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;C&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;- Sui Jianguo, Zhan Wang, Shen Shaomin, and Chen Wenling &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;C&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt; each employ different materials and visual styles, but they also show commonalities.&lt;span&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;Each work is intensely engaged with important contemporary issues such as the energy crisis, materialism, and globalization.&lt;span&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;They also share inspiration from traditional Chinese art, commercial culture, folk art, and industrial machinery as they explore ways to react to a public space. Contemporary Sculptures from China is presented by the Chicago Department of Cultural Affairs, Millennium Park, in cooperation with Millennium Park Inc., and is sponsored by The Boeing Company with support from the Richard H.

The first Tuesday of the month 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
The MCA offers a range of free and wildly interesting events in the cafe 
almost every Tuesday evening from October through April. Museum admission is 
free to everyone on Tuesdays so come early and visit the galleries and then 
stick around for constructive entertainment accompanied by a glass of wine or a 
cup of Joe and a tasty snack from Puck&#039;s Cafe.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A whimsical 
art party that unites artists of all skill levels. Not really an art class, not 
quite a party; it is a gathering for those who want to have a hands-on encounter 
with art. The MCA provides art supplies and participants bring ideas. There are 
special activities to guide participants through the evening of art making.

The MCA documents contemporary visual culture through painting, sculpture, photography, video and film, and performance. Located in the heart of downtown Chicago, the MCA boasts a gift store, bookstore, restaurant, 300-seat theater, and a terraced sculpture garden with a great view of Lake Michigan.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Mission Statement&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The mission of the MCA is to be an innovative and compelling center of contemporary art where the public can directly experience the work and ideas of living artists, and understand the historical, social, and cultural context of the art of our time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Museum boldly interweaves exhibitions, performances, collections, and educational programs to excite, challenge, and illuminate our visitors and to provide insight into the creative process.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The MCA aspires to engage a broad and diverse audience, create a sense of community and be a place for contemplation, stimulation, and discussion about contemporary art and culture.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;   &lt;/div&gt;

 <title>Visions from a Foxhole: The Wartime Sketches of William Foley</title>

&lt;em&gt;Visions from a Foxhole&lt;/em&gt; includes more than 40 works in pencil, ink, and oil created by William Foley, infantryman in World War II. Many come from the sketchbook he carried during the war; others show the reflections of a veteran over the decades after his service.  
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
This exhibit evokes the scarred winter landscape of the 94th Infantry Division&#039;s push to the Rhine, from shattered cities and blackened forests to the trenches where Foley and his fellow soldiers dug in for battle. There are also a number of personal vignettes of life on the front lines, as soldiers catch a chicken for dinner, take prisoners, explore a soap factory, and stand watch by a wrecked farmhouse. For a time, though his memories of the war were vivid, Foley could only recreate them in black and white. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
 The Pritzker Military Library is open from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday-Friday, and admission is free.

Since its invention, lithography has always been based in the idea that grease and water are mutually rejective and has always remained intimately connected to drawing and painting. Historically the image was created and printed from the surface of prepared limestone slabs but currently the modern ball ground aluminum plate frees the artist from many of the constraints of limestone while producing comparable printed effects. This course includes the theory, drawing techniques, processing, and printing of aluminum plate lithography. Color theory and multiple runs will also be reviewed. This class is open to students of all skill levels and will be taught by Chicago artist Richard Repasky. Class size is limited to 8 individuals. This class costs $300 including all materials except for paper and plates. Plates will be available on the first day of class. Open Studio time for the duration of the class is available for a $2 materials fee per visit.

Learn the exciting processes of printing in color through mezzotint with Chicago-based artist, Connie Wolfe. In this course, you will specifically learn how to print reductive and multi-plate color prints using mezzotint as your starting point. Preparing mezzotint plates and using secondary tonal processes such as aquatint will be covered in this class. Students will learn how to mix color inks, how to transfer key plates to additional plates, how to print multiple colors, and how colors can work together to make visually dynamic images. Additionally, students will learn how to edition, how to prepare paper, and how to sign prints. This class is open to all skill levels, so previous mezzotint knowledge is not necessary. Class size is limited to 8 individuals. This class costs $300 including all materials except for paper and plates. 3” x 4” plates will be available on the first day of class. Open Studio time for the duration of the class is available for a $2 materials fee per visit.

Exhibit will run until March 31st; Free Admission &lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The exhibit “Resiliencia”, organized by the Instituto Cervantes and in collaboration with AECID and PHotoEspaña, presents various works from 10 young artists who participated in the 2009 edition of PHE Discoveries in Latin America. The works in this exhibit present diverse perspectives on society and its ability to adapt and survive while being affected by continuous fluctuations. In Latin America, these creative processes come about in the midst of social, economic, and political turmoil. “Resiliencia” presents the work of professionals who are exploring the changes happening all around them, as well as reflecting on the role of image in our society.&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:cultura@cervantes1.org&quot;&gt;cultura@cervantes1.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://chicago.cervantes.es&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://chicago.cervantes.es&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

As the body is digitally reflected and reborn, are we looking towards technology to experience ourselves in a redeemed form outside of human societal constructs? When technology captures kinetic energy, is our essence embodied in the pixilation, or is our “self” lost in the process? Through dynamic works by Luftwerk, OpenEnded Group, and Troika Ranch, as well as the Synchronous Objects web kiosk created by William Forsythe, Maria Palazzi, and Norah Zuniga Shaw, the exhibition brings forward exploratory ideas that push and pull our perceptions of the body and impulses to move beyond it into uncharted cyber territory.  

A series of related programs, including gallery talks, discussions and workshops will be offered throughout the exhibition. For more information, visit &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.colum.edu/deps&quot; title=&quot;www.colum.edu/deps&quot;&gt;www.colum.edu/deps&lt;/a&gt;. 

&quot;Digital Incarnate&quot; is co-curated by Alycia Scott and Sara Slawnik and presented by Columbia College Chicago’s: Department of Exhibition and Performance Spaces, The Dance Center, the Ellen Stone Belic Institute for the Study of Women and Gender in the Arts and Media and the Interactive Arts and Media Department.&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:sslawnik@colum.edu&quot;&gt;sslawnik@colum.edu&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.colum.edu/deps&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.colum.edu/deps&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

A Savannah barber, Davis spent his free time carving a diverse but unified body of highly refined sculpture that reflects his deep faith, humor, and dignity. This retrospective features 109 pieces and is organized by Susan Crawley of the High Museum of Art, Atlanta, in association with King-Tisdell Cottage Foundation of Savannah. The title comes from Davis’s explanation of why he disliked parting with his work: “They’re my treasure. If I sold these, I’d be really poor.”&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:intuit@art.org&quot;&gt;intuit@art.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.art.org&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.art.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

Sacred Geometry: Art of the &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;Mandala&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span&gt;will be presented at Life Force Arts Center Gallery, 3148 N Lincoln Ave, Chicago from February 19 - March 31, 2010&lt;/span&gt;.
This art show explores contemporary artists&#039; creations of mandalas,
which artist Diogenes Lamarche defines as &amp;quot;visual compositions, usually
based in a circular pattern, that incorporate different symbolic and
geometric patterns that can lead to shifts in consciousness,
perspectives, and energy flow.&amp;quot; The exhibit includes &lt;span&gt;paintings, sculpture and mixed media and &lt;/span&gt;features a variety of approaches to the &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;mandala&lt;/span&gt;. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;span&gt;Admission is free and gallery hours are by appointment. For more information, contact 773-327-7224 or &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; href=&quot;http://www.lifeforcearts.org//&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;span&gt;www.LifeForceArts.org&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;. &lt;/span&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Wikipedia
says that in various spiritual traditions, mandalas may be employed for
focusing attention of aspirants and adepts, as a spiritual teaching
tool, for establishing a &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Temenos&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Temenos&quot;&gt;sacred space&lt;/a&gt;, and as an aid to &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meditation&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Meditation&quot;&gt;meditation&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trance&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Trance&quot;&gt;trance&lt;/a&gt; induction. In common use, &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;mandala&lt;/span&gt; has become a generic term for any plan, chart or geometric pattern that represents the &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cosmos&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Cosmos&quot;&gt;cosmos&lt;/a&gt; metaphysically or symbolically, a &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Macrocosm_and_microcosm&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Macrocosm and microcosm&quot;&gt;microcosm&lt;/a&gt; of the &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universe&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Universe&quot;&gt;Universe&lt;/a&gt; from the human perspective.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Pat Otto, one of the artists represented in Art of the &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;Mandala&lt;/span&gt;, is also an art teacher and art therapist. &lt;em&gt;&lt;span&gt;
She says, &amp;quot;My artwork comes from images and urges of psyche that
I notice and let surface. They merge with everyday life experiences,
and I bring them into form through working with physical materials,
such as wood, wax, paint and canvas. I enjoy facilitating art
experiences for others to creatively express themselves in a way that
is deeply intuitive and insightful.  I have found, in my own work and
in working with others, that using the mandala in its most basic
form, a circle with a center, creates a safe and sacred space for
expression.  As Carl Jung said, mandalas are a symbol for the Self
seeking wholeness, and are a vehicle for healing. Often, people are
found to spontaneously express images within a circle framework at
chaotic times in their lives.&amp;quot;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;em&gt; &lt;/em&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Another
artist in the show, Steven Blaine Adams, says, &amp;quot;Crystals grow in sacred
geometric patterns, and their properties have been used since ancient
times for healing and magical purposes. As an energy healer myself, I
help clients through using crystals to balance their physical, mental,
emotional and spiritual energy. These properties make crystals ideal
materials for creating sacred mandalas for use in meditation, and I am
making three crystal mandalas for this show: the Green Man, the Sri
Yantra and the Celtic Cross.&amp;quot; 
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;

Life Force Arts Center (LFAC), 3148 N Lincoln, Chicago, 
is Chicago’s  spiritual art gallery and performance space.Our mission is
creating spiritual awakening and transformation through the visual, 
literary and performing arts. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;left&quot;&gt;
The Center presents spiritually based dance, theater, music, performance art, authors, and visual &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;artists&lt;/span&gt;
of all spiritual traditions. LFAC defines spiritual art as art that  
flows from spiritual practice, art that strives to connect the audience 
with Spirit, and art that creates spiritual healing, transformation, or
awakening. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;
   
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
At LFAC, we recognize 
and nurture the fact that Spirit moves through an individual to create 
in many forms of professional practice: art, teaching and healing. 
Spiritual artists often are teachers and healers as well. LFAC is a 
place where the public (audiences, students, clients, participants) can 
partake of all the modalities in which a practitioner is inspired to 
create. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;
  
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
LFAC offers art exhibits, 
performances and spiritual workshops in our 1200 square foot Main Space.
Visit our Gift Shop to purchase artwork, CD;s and DVD&#039;s, jewelry, books
and other products of the artists, teachers and healers who present at 
our Center. The space is available for rental as well, and is perfect 
for workshops, meetings, parties yoga, dance, theater and other events. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Life
Force Arts Center opened in 2008, and is operated by Life Force Arts 
Foundation, which was founded in 1988 as a non-profit, tax exempt 501 
(c) 3 organization to present the   modern dance and performance work of
Joan Forest Mage. As Joan developed the deeper, spiritual aspects of 
her work as shamanic practice, the company grew to support the 
exploration of the art-spirituality connection.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;   &lt;/div&gt;
  &lt;/div&gt;

&lt;p&gt;
This March and April, Peter Patterson of &lt;em&gt;Patterson Glassworks&lt;/em&gt; in Mundelein, Illinois&lt;em&gt; &lt;/em&gt;is featured in the exhibition window &lt;em&gt;Waterworlds &lt;/em&gt;at the Illinois Artisans Shop, Chicago. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Patterson has worked with glass for over 25 years. He earned a BFA from the Cleveland School of Art in Cleveland, Ohio and has studied extensively at the Penland School of Craft in Penland, North Carolina. His unique use of material during the firing process has distinct visual results. The water-like depth of light is built from several surfaces of glass, color overlays, millefiori and gradually spaced bubbles. In &lt;em&gt;Waterworlds&lt;/em&gt;, Patterson uses a process he invented: incorporating phosphorus into the glass, making it glow in the dark. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&lt;em&gt;With my BFA from college majoring in illustration, I like to think of each of my pieces as an illustration. I can achieve this by pre-fusing some of my decoration or using different technique. &lt;/em&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&lt;em&gt;The inspiration for my different series comes from a variety of things including life experiences, scuba diving, working plant knowledge, graphic design and nature itself. I put these fluid motions of the water along with organic shapes derived from nature into my glass creations.&lt;/em&gt;  -Peter Patterson
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Peter Patterson is shown at galleries across the country and is in private collections worldwide. He is represented by the Illinois Artisans Shop, Chicago. All items on display are for sale. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
The Illinois Artisans Shop, a not-for-profit endeavor, is a showcase for art work created by the state&#039;s finest artisans. It provides an ongoing opportunity to view and purchase the best designed and crafted traditional, contemporary, ethnic and folk art made in Illinois. Illinois Artisans Shop, 100 W. Randolph, Ste. 2-200, 312-814-5321, Monday-Friday 9 - 5.

During the month of March, ART ON ARMITAGE: a window gallery will present Lindsay Obermeyer&#039;s A Glass Prairie, an installation that pays homage to the beauty of our natural landscape.  Fashioned from hundreds of beads and yards of wire, each wildflower is a facsimile of those native to the Midwest.  A Glass Prairie will grow over the duration of the exhibition as new flowers are added to the installation each week, filling the space with color and hope for our fragile ecosystem.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
The public is invited to an &lt;strong&gt;artist&#039;s reception &lt;span class=&quot;yshortcuts&quot;&gt;on Sunday March
7th, from 4pm&lt;/span&gt; to 6pm.&lt;/strong&gt;

A living legend...&lt;br /&gt;
March 2, 2010 thru April 9, 2010&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Nevica Project proudly presents &lt;span&gt;Warren MacKenzie - &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;em&gt;A living legend...&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Warren MacKenzie (b. 1924) is recognized as a true master of 20th
Century ceramic art. Through his traditional wheel-thrown vessels, Mr.
MacKenzie&#039;s pottery embodies strong influences from Bernard Leach and
Shoji Hamada.  His work consistently represents the confidence of where
the potter’s hand is felt and touched through the utilitarian pots that
are produced for use in everyday life.&lt;br /&gt;
This exhibition will feature over 50 different stamped pieces created by this legendary potter.&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:info@theNEVICAproject.com&quot;&gt;info@theNEVICAproject.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.theNEVICAproject.com&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.theNEVICAproject.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

While the focal point of a concert is the perform­ers, a plethora ofvisual elements are involved in creating and enhancing the experience. Artistssuch as graphic designers, illustrators, photographers and many others are allcrucial in creating this environment from the designs on the merchandise to thepromotions for the event. The visual elements that often fade into thebackground- band t-shirts, posters, album art, post-event photos, fashion,advertisements and fliers - are now the focus,givingviewers access to the excess.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:mherrera@colum.edu&quot;&gt;mherrera@colum.edu&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-event-location&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Event Location&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-text field-field-venue&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Venue:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;C33 Gallery.

&lt;span&gt;The
International Museum of Surgical Science (IMSS) presents &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Blooms, Efflorescence, and Other
Dermatological Embellishments&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;—an exhibition of jewelry and photography
by Lauren Kalman—and &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;You thought that you were alone but I caught
your bullet just in time&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;—a sculptural installation by Annie
Heckman—from March 5 through May 21, 2010. These exhibitions, the latest in the
Museum’s ongoing “Anatomy in the Gallery” program, use grotesque ornamentation
to contrast the idealized elements of conventional bodily imagery with the
realities of individual, physical bodies.&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span&gt;Blooms,
Efflorescence, and Other Dermatological Embellishments&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span&gt;
includes Kalman’s jeweled adornments that replicate the skin infections,
lesions, and sores caused by medical conditions such as acne, cancer, herpes,
and syphilis, as well as photographs of models wearing these adornments. &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;You
thought that you were alone but I caught your bullet just in time&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;
comprises glow-in-the-dark house-of-cards structures built of interlocking cut
paper pieces, each drawn upon in graphite and coated with phosphorescent paint by
Chicago artist Heckman to resemble a human or animal bone. The ongoing “Anatomy
in the Gallery” program at IMSS showcases paired exhibitions of medically
inspired contemporary art in the context of the Museum’s historical exhibits
and artifacts, all housed in a landmark turn-of-the-century mansion on Lake
Shore Drive.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:info@imss.org&quot;&gt;info@imss.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.imss.org/anatgallery.htm&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.imss.org/anatgallery.htm&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

Reflets&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;La Poesie Des Affiches&lt;/em&gt;. In &lt;em&gt;Les Reflets&lt;/em&gt; the images explore 
Aurinko&#039;s fascination with the artificial beauty and frozen perfection 
of mannequins and captured faces that inhabit store windows and gaze 
from billboards and advertisements. &lt;em&gt;La Poesie Des Affiches&lt;/em&gt; is a 
continuation of graffiti-based work begun in Madrid, New York and Paris 
years ago. Aurinko examines the layering of signage that appears in 
large cities, often plastered over &amp;quot;post no bills&amp;quot; signs, in languages 
that mirror the culture of a country.&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:bryna.shields@chicagophoto.org&quot;&gt;bryna.shields@chicagophoto.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.chicagophoto.org&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.chicagophoto.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-event-location&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Event Location&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-text field-field-venue&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Venue:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;Chicago Photography Center&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-text field-field-phone&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Phone Number:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;773-549-1631&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-postal field-field-postal-contact&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Address:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3301 N Lincoln Ave&lt;br /&gt;Chicago, IL 60657&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://maps.google.com/maps?q=3301+N+Lincoln+Ave%2C+Chicago%2C+IL%2C+60657&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Google Map&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-text field-field-neighborhood&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Neighborhood:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;Lakeview&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/fieldset&gt;

Chris Heisinger is an artist specializing in stained glass mosaics. Born and raised in Chicago, Illinois, Chris &lt;br /&gt;
has always found ways to express herself with her artwork. While attending Northwestern University, &lt;br /&gt;
she studied the Arts and Crafts movement, Native American and Chinese art history that brings a unique &lt;br /&gt;
flavor to her art pieces. &lt;br /&gt;
Over the years, Chris has worked in acrylics, ceramics, photography, stained glass and mosaics. While &lt;br /&gt;
working artistically in many media, she came back to creating artwork with glass. Since the late 1980’s &lt;br /&gt;
she has developed her artistic style through stained glass and began creating stained glass mosaics in &lt;br /&gt;
2002. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Simply Chicago Art, showcases gifted local area artists and help the community discover these incredibly talented individuals.  Using their work as inspiration, Simply Chicago Art creates an experience within the gallery that is rewarding and enjoyable for the artists and clientele.&lt;br /&gt;

Dogmatic, Art Ledge, Old Gold, Green Lantern, and Alterspace, Knock
Knock gallery embraces the domestic resonance of a site, rather than
opting for white, anonymous space. Created as a platform for site
specific work, the gallery itself presents a difinitive context for the
work. The space utilizes the upper and lower landings of a staricase
joining the streetlevel entrance and the livingspace of a southside
resedency. In addition to the main gallery space, there is a small
project room off the upper landing. Knock Knock gallery is located at
3658 S. Wolcott: on the NW corner of 37th and Wolcott.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;   &lt;/div&gt;

Coming from different regions and educational backgrounds, the artists &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;C&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;- Sui Jianguo, Zhan Wang, Shen Shaomin, and Chen Wenling &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;C&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt; each employ different materials and visual styles, but they also show commonalities.&lt;span&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;Each work is intensely engaged with important contemporary issues such as the energy crisis, materialism, and globalization.&lt;span&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;They also share inspiration from traditional Chinese art, commercial culture, folk art, and industrial machinery as they explore ways to react to a public space. Contemporary Sculptures from China is presented by the Chicago Department of Cultural Affairs, Millennium Park, in cooperation with Millennium Park Inc., and is sponsored by The Boeing Company with support from the Richard H.

The MCA offers a range of free and wildly interesting events in the cafe

cup of Joe and a tasty snack from Puck&#039;s Cafe.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A whimsical 
art party that unites artists of all skill levels. Not really an art class, not 
quite a party; it is a gathering for those who want to have a hands-on encounter 
with art. The MCA provides art supplies and participants bring ideas. There are 
special activities to guide participants through the evening of art making.

 <title>Visions from a Foxhole: The Wartime Sketches of William Foley</title>

&lt;em&gt;Visions from a Foxhole&lt;/em&gt; includes more than 40 works in pencil, ink, and oil created by William Foley, infantryman in World War II. Many come from the sketchbook he carried during the war; others show the reflections of a veteran over the decades after his service.  
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
This exhibit evokes the scarred winter landscape of the 94th Infantry Division&#039;s push to the Rhine, from shattered cities and blackened forests to the trenches where Foley and his fellow soldiers dug in for battle. There are also a number of personal vignettes of life on the front lines, as soldiers catch a chicken for dinner, take prisoners, explore a soap factory, and stand watch by a wrecked farmhouse. For a time, though his memories of the war were vivid, Foley could only recreate them in black and white. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
 The Pritzker Military Library is open from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday-Friday, and admission is free.

Since its invention, lithography has always been based in the idea that grease and water are mutually rejective and has always remained intimately connected to drawing and painting. Historically the image was created and printed from the surface of prepared limestone slabs but currently the modern ball ground aluminum plate frees the artist from many of the constraints of limestone while producing comparable printed effects. This course includes the theory, drawing techniques, processing, and printing of aluminum plate lithography. Color theory and multiple runs will also be reviewed. This class is open to students of all skill levels and will be taught by Chicago artist Richard Repasky. Class size is limited to 8 individuals. This class costs $300 including all materials except for paper and plates. Plates will be available on the first day of class. Open Studio time for the duration of the class is available for a $2 materials fee per visit.

Learn the exciting processes of printing in color through mezzotint with Chicago-based artist, Connie Wolfe. In this course, you will specifically learn how to print reductive and multi-plate color prints using mezzotint as your starting point. Preparing mezzotint plates and using secondary tonal processes such as aquatint will be covered in this class. Students will learn how to mix color inks, how to transfer key plates to additional plates, how to print multiple colors, and how colors can work together to make visually dynamic images. Additionally, students will learn how to edition, how to prepare paper, and how to sign prints. This class is open to all skill levels, so previous mezzotint knowledge is not necessary. Class size is limited to 8 individuals. This class costs $300 including all materials except for paper and plates. 3” x 4” plates will be available on the first day of class. Open Studio time for the duration of the class is available for a $2 materials fee per visit.

Instituto Cervantes Gallery&lt;br /&gt;
Exhibit will run until March 31st; Free Admission &lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The exhibit “Resiliencia”, organized by the Instituto Cervantes and in collaboration with AECID and PHotoEspaña, presents various works from 10 young artists who participated in the 2009 edition of PHE Discoveries in Latin America. The works in this exhibit present diverse perspectives on society and its ability to adapt and survive while being affected by continuous fluctuations. In Latin America, these creative processes come about in the midst of social, economic, and political turmoil. “Resiliencia” presents the work of professionals who are exploring the changes happening all around them, as well as reflecting on the role of image in our society.&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:cultura@cervantes1.org&quot;&gt;cultura@cervantes1.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://chicago.cervantes.es&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://chicago.cervantes.es&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

As the body is digitally reflected and reborn, are we looking towards technology to experience ourselves in a redeemed form outside of human societal constructs? When technology captures kinetic energy, is our essence embodied in the pixilation, or is our “self” lost in the process? Through dynamic works by Luftwerk, OpenEnded Group, and Troika Ranch, as well as the Synchronous Objects web kiosk created by William Forsythe, Maria Palazzi, and Norah Zuniga Shaw, the exhibition brings forward exploratory ideas that push and pull our perceptions of the body and impulses to move beyond it into uncharted cyber territory.  

A series of related programs, including gallery talks, discussions and workshops will be offered throughout the exhibition. For more information, visit &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.colum.edu/deps&quot; title=&quot;www.colum.edu/deps&quot;&gt;www.colum.edu/deps&lt;/a&gt;. 

&quot;Digital Incarnate&quot; is co-curated by Alycia Scott and Sara Slawnik and presented by Columbia College Chicago’s: Department of Exhibition and Performance Spaces, The Dance Center, the Ellen Stone Belic Institute for the Study of Women and Gender in the Arts and Media and the Interactive Arts and Media Department.&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:sslawnik@colum.edu&quot;&gt;sslawnik@colum.edu&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.colum.edu/deps&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.colum.edu/deps&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

This exhibition, organized by the National Gallery of Art in Washington, DC, evokes the discreet world of individual collecting to tell a less familiar story of nineteenth-century art.&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:smart-museum@uchicago.edu&quot;&gt;smart-museum@uchicago.edu&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://smartmuseum.uchicago.edu/darkersideoflight&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://smartmuseum.uchicago.edu/darkersideoflight&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

A Savannah barber, Davis spent his free time carving a diverse but unified body of highly refined sculpture that reflects his deep faith, humor, and dignity. This retrospective features 109 pieces and is organized by Susan Crawley of the High Museum of Art, Atlanta, in association with King-Tisdell Cottage Foundation of Savannah. The title comes from Davis’s explanation of why he disliked parting with his work: “They’re my treasure. If I sold these, I’d be really poor.”&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:intuit@art.org&quot;&gt;intuit@art.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.art.org&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.art.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

Sacred Geometry: Art of the &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;Mandala&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span&gt;will be presented at Life Force Arts Center Gallery, 3148 N Lincoln Ave, Chicago from February 19 - March 31, 2010&lt;/span&gt;.
This art show explores contemporary artists&#039; creations of mandalas,
which artist Diogenes Lamarche defines as &amp;quot;visual compositions, usually
based in a circular pattern, that incorporate different symbolic and
geometric patterns that can lead to shifts in consciousness,
perspectives, and energy flow.&amp;quot; The exhibit includes &lt;span&gt;paintings, sculpture and mixed media and &lt;/span&gt;features a variety of approaches to the &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;mandala&lt;/span&gt;. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;span&gt;Admission is free and gallery hours are by appointment. For more information, contact 773-327-7224 or &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; href=&quot;http://www.lifeforcearts.org//&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;span&gt;www.LifeForceArts.org&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;. &lt;/span&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Wikipedia
says that in various spiritual traditions, mandalas may be employed for
focusing attention of aspirants and adepts, as a spiritual teaching
tool, for establishing a &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Temenos&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Temenos&quot;&gt;sacred space&lt;/a&gt;, and as an aid to &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meditation&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Meditation&quot;&gt;meditation&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trance&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Trance&quot;&gt;trance&lt;/a&gt; induction. In common use, &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;mandala&lt;/span&gt; has become a generic term for any plan, chart or geometric pattern that represents the &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cosmos&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Cosmos&quot;&gt;cosmos&lt;/a&gt; metaphysically or symbolically, a &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Macrocosm_and_microcosm&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Macrocosm and microcosm&quot;&gt;microcosm&lt;/a&gt; of the &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universe&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Universe&quot;&gt;Universe&lt;/a&gt; from the human perspective.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Pat Otto, one of the artists represented in Art of the &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;Mandala&lt;/span&gt;, is also an art teacher and art therapist. &lt;em&gt;&lt;span&gt;
She says, &amp;quot;My artwork comes from images and urges of psyche that
I notice and let surface. They merge with everyday life experiences,
and I bring them into form through working with physical materials,
such as wood, wax, paint and canvas. I enjoy facilitating art
experiences for others to creatively express themselves in a way that
is deeply intuitive and insightful.  I have found, in my own work and
in working with others, that using the mandala in its most basic
form, a circle with a center, creates a safe and sacred space for
expression.  As Carl Jung said, mandalas are a symbol for the Self
seeking wholeness, and are a vehicle for healing. Often, people are
found to spontaneously express images within a circle framework at
chaotic times in their lives.&amp;quot;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;em&gt; &lt;/em&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Another
artist in the show, Steven Blaine Adams, says, &amp;quot;Crystals grow in sacred
geometric patterns, and their properties have been used since ancient
times for healing and magical purposes. As an energy healer myself, I
help clients through using crystals to balance their physical, mental,
emotional and spiritual energy. These properties make crystals ideal
materials for creating sacred mandalas for use in meditation, and I am
making three crystal mandalas for this show: the Green Man, the Sri
Yantra and the Celtic Cross.&amp;quot; 
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;

Life Force Arts Center (LFAC), 3148 N Lincoln, Chicago, 
is Chicago’s  spiritual art gallery and performance space.Our mission is
creating spiritual awakening and transformation through the visual, 
literary and performing arts. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;left&quot;&gt;
The Center presents spiritually based dance, theater, music, performance art, authors, and visual &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;artists&lt;/span&gt;
of all spiritual traditions. LFAC defines spiritual art as art that  
flows from spiritual practice, art that strives to connect the audience 
with Spirit, and art that creates spiritual healing, transformation, or
awakening. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;
   
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
At LFAC, we recognize 
and nurture the fact that Spirit moves through an individual to create 
in many forms of professional practice: art, teaching and healing. 
Spiritual artists often are teachers and healers as well. LFAC is a 
place where the public (audiences, students, clients, participants) can 
partake of all the modalities in which a practitioner is inspired to 
create. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;
  
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
LFAC offers art exhibits, 
performances and spiritual workshops in our 1200 square foot Main Space.
Visit our Gift Shop to purchase artwork, CD;s and DVD&#039;s, jewelry, books
and other products of the artists, teachers and healers who present at 
our Center. The space is available for rental as well, and is perfect 
for workshops, meetings, parties yoga, dance, theater and other events. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Life
Force Arts Center opened in 2008, and is operated by Life Force Arts 
Foundation, which was founded in 1988 as a non-profit, tax exempt 501 
(c) 3 organization to present the   modern dance and performance work of
Joan Forest Mage. As Joan developed the deeper, spiritual aspects of 
her work as shamanic practice, the company grew to support the 
exploration of the art-spirituality connection.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;   &lt;/div&gt;
  &lt;/div&gt;

&lt;p&gt;
This March and April, Peter Patterson of &lt;em&gt;Patterson Glassworks&lt;/em&gt; in Mundelein, Illinois&lt;em&gt; &lt;/em&gt;is featured in the exhibition window &lt;em&gt;Waterworlds &lt;/em&gt;at the Illinois Artisans Shop, Chicago. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Patterson has worked with glass for over 25 years. He earned a BFA from the Cleveland School of Art in Cleveland, Ohio and has studied extensively at the Penland School of Craft in Penland, North Carolina. His unique use of material during the firing process has distinct visual results. The water-like depth of light is built from several surfaces of glass, color overlays, millefiori and gradually spaced bubbles. In &lt;em&gt;Waterworlds&lt;/em&gt;, Patterson uses a process he invented: incorporating phosphorus into the glass, making it glow in the dark. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&lt;em&gt;With my BFA from college majoring in illustration, I like to think of each of my pieces as an illustration. I can achieve this by pre-fusing some of my decoration or using different technique. &lt;/em&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&lt;em&gt;The inspiration for my different series comes from a variety of things including life experiences, scuba diving, working plant knowledge, graphic design and nature itself. I put these fluid motions of the water along with organic shapes derived from nature into my glass creations.&lt;/em&gt;  -Peter Patterson
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Peter Patterson is shown at galleries across the country and is in private collections worldwide. He is represented by the Illinois Artisans Shop, Chicago. All items on display are for sale. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
The Illinois Artisans Shop, a not-for-profit endeavor, is a showcase for art work created by the state&#039;s finest artisans. It provides an ongoing opportunity to view and purchase the best designed and crafted traditional, contemporary, ethnic and folk art made in Illinois. Illinois Artisans Shop, 100 W. Randolph, Ste. 2-200, 312-814-5321, Monday-Friday 9 - 5.

During the month of March, ART ON ARMITAGE: a window gallery will present Lindsay Obermeyer&#039;s A Glass Prairie, an installation that pays homage to the beauty of our natural landscape.  Fashioned from hundreds of beads and yards of wire, each wildflower is a facsimile of those native to the Midwest.  A Glass Prairie will grow over the duration of the exhibition as new flowers are added to the installation each week, filling the space with color and hope for our fragile ecosystem.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
The public is invited to an &lt;strong&gt;artist&#039;s reception &lt;span class=&quot;yshortcuts&quot;&gt;on Sunday March
7th, from 4pm&lt;/span&gt; to 6pm.&lt;/strong&gt;

A living legend...&lt;br /&gt;
March 2, 2010 thru April 9, 2010&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Nevica Project proudly presents &lt;span&gt;Warren MacKenzie - &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;em&gt;A living legend...&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Warren MacKenzie (b. 1924) is recognized as a true master of 20th
Century ceramic art. Through his traditional wheel-thrown vessels, Mr.
MacKenzie&#039;s pottery embodies strong influences from Bernard Leach and
Shoji Hamada.  His work consistently represents the confidence of where
the potter’s hand is felt and touched through the utilitarian pots that
are produced for use in everyday life.&lt;br /&gt;
This exhibition will feature over 50 different stamped pieces created by this legendary potter.&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:info@theNEVICAproject.com&quot;&gt;info@theNEVICAproject.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.theNEVICAproject.com&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.theNEVICAproject.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

While the focal point of a concert is the perform­ers, a plethora ofvisual elements are involved in creating and enhancing the experience. Artistssuch as graphic designers, illustrators, photographers and many others are allcrucial in creating this environment from the designs on the merchandise to thepromotions for the event. The visual elements that often fade into thebackground- band t-shirts, posters, album art, post-event photos, fashion,advertisements and fliers - are now the focus,givingviewers access to the excess.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:mherrera@colum.edu&quot;&gt;mherrera@colum.edu&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-event-location&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Event Location&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-text field-field-venue&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Venue:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;C33 Gallery.

&lt;span&gt;The
International Museum of Surgical Science (IMSS) presents &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Blooms, Efflorescence, and Other
Dermatological Embellishments&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;—an exhibition of jewelry and photography
by Lauren Kalman—and &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;You thought that you were alone but I caught
your bullet just in time&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;—a sculptural installation by Annie
Heckman—from March 5 through May 21, 2010. These exhibitions, the latest in the
Museum’s ongoing “Anatomy in the Gallery” program, use grotesque ornamentation
to contrast the idealized elements of conventional bodily imagery with the
realities of individual, physical bodies.&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;

Efflorescence, and Other Dermatological Embellishments&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span&gt;
includes Kalman’s jeweled adornments that replicate the skin infections,
lesions, and sores caused by medical conditions such as acne, cancer, herpes,
and syphilis, as well as photographs of models wearing these adornments. &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;You
thought that you were alone but I caught your bullet just in time&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;
comprises glow-in-the-dark house-of-cards structures built of interlocking cut
paper pieces, each drawn upon in graphite and coated with phosphorescent paint by
Chicago artist Heckman to resemble a human or animal bone. The ongoing “Anatomy
in the Gallery” program at IMSS showcases paired exhibitions of medically
inspired contemporary art in the context of the Museum’s historical exhibits
and artifacts, all housed in a landmark turn-of-the-century mansion on Lake
Shore Drive.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:info@imss.org&quot;&gt;info@imss.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.imss.org/anatgallery.htm&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.imss.org/anatgallery.htm&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

Reflets&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;La Poesie Des Affiches&lt;/em&gt;. In &lt;em&gt;Les Reflets&lt;/em&gt; the images explore 
Aurinko&#039;s fascination with the artificial beauty and frozen perfection 
of mannequins and captured faces that inhabit store windows and gaze 
from billboards and advertisements. &lt;em&gt;La Poesie Des Affiches&lt;/em&gt; is a 
continuation of graffiti-based work begun in Madrid, New York and Paris

Chris Heisinger is an artist specializing in stained glass mosaics. Born and raised in Chicago, Illinois, Chris &lt;br /&gt;
has always found ways to express herself with her artwork. While attending Northwestern University, &lt;br /&gt;
she studied the Arts and Crafts movement, Native American and Chinese art history that brings a unique &lt;br /&gt;
flavor to her art pieces. &lt;br /&gt;
Over the years, Chris has worked in acrylics, ceramics, photography, stained glass and mosaics. While &lt;br /&gt;
working artistically in many media, she came back to creating artwork with glass. Since the late 1980’s &lt;br /&gt;
she has developed her artistic style through stained glass and began creating stained glass mosaics in &lt;br /&gt;
2002. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Simply Chicago Art, showcases gifted local area artists and help the community discover these incredibly talented individuals.  Using their work as inspiration, Simply Chicago Art creates an experience within the gallery that is rewarding and enjoyable for the artists and clientele.&lt;br /&gt;

Dogmatic, Art Ledge, Old Gold, Green Lantern, and Alterspace, Knock
Knock gallery embraces the domestic resonance of a site, rather than
opting for white, anonymous space. Created as a platform for site
specific work, the gallery itself presents a difinitive context for the
work. The space utilizes the upper and lower landings of a staricase
joining the streetlevel entrance and the livingspace of a southside
resedency. In addition to the main gallery space, there is a small
project room off the upper landing. Knock Knock gallery is located at
3658 S. Wolcott: on the NW corner of 37th and Wolcott.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;   &lt;/div&gt;

Coming from different regions and educational backgrounds, the artists &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;C&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;- Sui Jianguo, Zhan Wang, Shen Shaomin, and Chen Wenling &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;C&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt; each employ different materials and visual styles, but they also show commonalities.&lt;span&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;Each work is intensely engaged with important contemporary issues such as the energy crisis, materialism, and globalization.&lt;span&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;They also share inspiration from traditional Chinese art, commercial culture, folk art, and industrial machinery as they explore ways to react to a public space. Contemporary Sculptures from China is presented by the Chicago Department of Cultural Affairs, Millennium Park, in cooperation with Millennium Park Inc., and is sponsored by The Boeing Company with support from the Richard H.

The first Tuesday of the month 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
The MCA offers a range of free and wildly interesting events in the cafe 
almost every Tuesday evening from October through April. Museum admission is 
free to everyone on Tuesdays so come early and visit the galleries and then 
stick around for constructive entertainment accompanied by a glass of wine or a 
cup of Joe and a tasty snack from Puck&#039;s Cafe.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A whimsical 
art party that unites artists of all skill levels. Not really an art class, not 
quite a party; it is a gathering for those who want to have a hands-on encounter 
with art. The MCA provides art supplies and participants bring ideas. There are 
special activities to guide participants through the evening of art making.

The MCA documents contemporary visual culture through painting, sculpture, photography, video and film, and performance. Located in the heart of downtown Chicago, the MCA boasts a gift store, bookstore, restaurant, 300-seat theater, and a terraced sculpture garden with a great view of Lake Michigan.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Mission Statement&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The mission of the MCA is to be an innovative and compelling center of contemporary art where the public can directly experience the work and ideas of living artists, and understand the historical, social, and cultural context of the art of our time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Museum boldly interweaves exhibitions, performances, collections, and educational programs to excite, challenge, and illuminate our visitors and to provide insight into the creative process.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The MCA aspires to engage a broad and diverse audience, create a sense of community and be a place for contemplation, stimulation, and discussion about contemporary art and culture.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;   &lt;/div&gt;

 <title>Visions from a Foxhole: The Wartime Sketches of William Foley</title>

&lt;em&gt;Visions from a Foxhole&lt;/em&gt; includes more than 40 works in pencil, ink, and oil created by William Foley, infantryman in World War II. Many come from the sketchbook he carried during the war; others show the reflections of a veteran over the decades after his service.  
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
This exhibit evokes the scarred winter landscape of the 94th Infantry Division&#039;s push to the Rhine, from shattered cities and blackened forests to the trenches where Foley and his fellow soldiers dug in for battle. There are also a number of personal vignettes of life on the front lines, as soldiers catch a chicken for dinner, take prisoners, explore a soap factory, and stand watch by a wrecked farmhouse. For a time, though his memories of the war were vivid, Foley could only recreate them in black and white. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
 The Pritzker Military Library is open from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday-Friday, and admission is free.

Since its invention, lithography has always been based in the idea that grease and water are mutually rejective and has always remained intimately connected to drawing and painting. Historically the image was created and printed from the surface of prepared limestone slabs but currently the modern ball ground aluminum plate frees the artist from many of the constraints of limestone while producing comparable printed effects. This course includes the theory, drawing techniques, processing, and printing of aluminum plate lithography. Color theory and multiple runs will also be reviewed. This class is open to students of all skill levels and will be taught by Chicago artist Richard Repasky. Class size is limited to 8 individuals. This class costs $300 including all materials except for paper and plates. Plates will be available on the first day of class. Open Studio time for the duration of the class is available for a $2 materials fee per visit.

Learn the exciting processes of printing in color through mezzotint with Chicago-based artist, Connie Wolfe. In this course, you will specifically learn how to print reductive and multi-plate color prints using mezzotint as your starting point. Preparing mezzotint plates and using secondary tonal processes such as aquatint will be covered in this class. Students will learn how to mix color inks, how to transfer key plates to additional plates, how to print multiple colors, and how colors can work together to make visually dynamic images. Additionally, students will learn how to edition, how to prepare paper, and how to sign prints. This class is open to all skill levels, so previous mezzotint knowledge is not necessary. Class size is limited to 8 individuals. This class costs $300 including all materials except for paper and plates. 3” x 4” plates will be available on the first day of class. Open Studio time for the duration of the class is available for a $2 materials fee per visit.

Exhibit will run until March 31st; Free Admission &lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The exhibit “Resiliencia”, organized by the Instituto Cervantes and in collaboration with AECID and PHotoEspaña, presents various works from 10 young artists who participated in the 2009 edition of PHE Discoveries in Latin America. The works in this exhibit present diverse perspectives on society and its ability to adapt and survive while being affected by continuous fluctuations. In Latin America, these creative processes come about in the midst of social, economic, and political turmoil. “Resiliencia” presents the work of professionals who are exploring the changes happening all around them, as well as reflecting on the role of image in our society.&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:cultura@cervantes1.org&quot;&gt;cultura@cervantes1.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://chicago.cervantes.es&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://chicago.cervantes.es&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

As the body is digitally reflected and reborn, are we looking towards technology to experience ourselves in a redeemed form outside of human societal constructs? When technology captures kinetic energy, is our essence embodied in the pixilation, or is our “self” lost in the process? Through dynamic works by Luftwerk, OpenEnded Group, and Troika Ranch, as well as the Synchronous Objects web kiosk created by William Forsythe, Maria Palazzi, and Norah Zuniga Shaw, the exhibition brings forward exploratory ideas that push and pull our perceptions of the body and impulses to move beyond it into uncharted cyber territory.  

A series of related programs, including gallery talks, discussions and workshops will be offered throughout the exhibition. For more information, visit &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.colum.edu/deps&quot; title=&quot;www.colum.edu/deps&quot;&gt;www.colum.edu/deps&lt;/a&gt;. 

&quot;Digital Incarnate&quot; is co-curated by Alycia Scott and Sara Slawnik and presented by Columbia College Chicago’s: Department of Exhibition and Performance Spaces, The Dance Center, the Ellen Stone Belic Institute for the Study of Women and Gender in the Arts and Media and the Interactive Arts and Media Department.&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:sslawnik@colum.edu&quot;&gt;sslawnik@colum.edu&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.colum.edu/deps&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.colum.edu/deps&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

A Savannah barber, Davis spent his free time carving a diverse but unified body of highly refined sculpture that reflects his deep faith, humor, and dignity. This retrospective features 109 pieces and is organized by Susan Crawley of the High Museum of Art, Atlanta, in association with King-Tisdell Cottage Foundation of Savannah. The title comes from Davis’s explanation of why he disliked parting with his work: “They’re my treasure. If I sold these, I’d be really poor.”&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:intuit@art.org&quot;&gt;intuit@art.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.art.org&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.art.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

Sacred Geometry: Art of the &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;Mandala&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span&gt;will be presented at Life Force Arts Center Gallery, 3148 N Lincoln Ave, Chicago from February 19 - March 31, 2010&lt;/span&gt;.
This art show explores contemporary artists&#039; creations of mandalas,
which artist Diogenes Lamarche defines as &amp;quot;visual compositions, usually
based in a circular pattern, that incorporate different symbolic and
geometric patterns that can lead to shifts in consciousness,
perspectives, and energy flow.&amp;quot; The exhibit includes &lt;span&gt;paintings, sculpture and mixed media and &lt;/span&gt;features a variety of approaches to the &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;mandala&lt;/span&gt;. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;span&gt;Admission is free and gallery hours are by appointment. For more information, contact 773-327-7224 or &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; href=&quot;http://www.lifeforcearts.org//&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;span&gt;www.LifeForceArts.org&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;. &lt;/span&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Wikipedia
says that in various spiritual traditions, mandalas may be employed for
focusing attention of aspirants and adepts, as a spiritual teaching
tool, for establishing a &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Temenos&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Temenos&quot;&gt;sacred space&lt;/a&gt;, and as an aid to &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meditation&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Meditation&quot;&gt;meditation&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trance&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Trance&quot;&gt;trance&lt;/a&gt; induction. In common use, &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;mandala&lt;/span&gt; has become a generic term for any plan, chart or geometric pattern that represents the &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cosmos&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Cosmos&quot;&gt;cosmos&lt;/a&gt; metaphysically or symbolically, a &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Macrocosm_and_microcosm&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Macrocosm and microcosm&quot;&gt;microcosm&lt;/a&gt; of the &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universe&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Universe&quot;&gt;Universe&lt;/a&gt; from the human perspective.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Pat Otto, one of the artists represented in Art of the &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;Mandala&lt;/span&gt;, is also an art teacher and art therapist. &lt;em&gt;&lt;span&gt;
She says, &amp;quot;My artwork comes from images and urges of psyche that
I notice and let surface. They merge with everyday life experiences,
and I bring them into form through working with physical materials,
such as wood, wax, paint and canvas. I enjoy facilitating art
experiences for others to creatively express themselves in a way that
is deeply intuitive and insightful.  I have found, in my own work and
in working with others, that using the mandala in its most basic
form, a circle with a center, creates a safe and sacred space for
expression.  As Carl Jung said, mandalas are a symbol for the Self
seeking wholeness, and are a vehicle for healing. Often, people are
found to spontaneously express images within a circle framework at
chaotic times in their lives.&amp;quot;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;em&gt; &lt;/em&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Another
artist in the show, Steven Blaine Adams, says, &amp;quot;Crystals grow in sacred
geometric patterns, and their properties have been used since ancient
times for healing and magical purposes. As an energy healer myself, I
help clients through using crystals to balance their physical, mental,
emotional and spiritual energy. These properties make crystals ideal
materials for creating sacred mandalas for use in meditation, and I am
making three crystal mandalas for this show: the Green Man, the Sri
Yantra and the Celtic Cross.&amp;quot; 
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;

Life Force Arts Center (LFAC), 3148 N Lincoln, Chicago, 
is Chicago’s  spiritual art gallery and performance space.Our mission is
creating spiritual awakening and transformation through the visual, 
literary and performing arts. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;left&quot;&gt;
The Center presents spiritually based dance, theater, music, performance art, authors, and visual &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;artists&lt;/span&gt;
of all spiritual traditions. LFAC defines spiritual art as art that  
flows from spiritual practice, art that strives to connect the audience 
with Spirit, and art that creates spiritual healing, transformation, or
awakening. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;
   
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
At LFAC, we recognize 
and nurture the fact that Spirit moves through an individual to create 
in many forms of professional practice: art, teaching and healing. 
Spiritual artists often are teachers and healers as well. LFAC is a 
place where the public (audiences, students, clients, participants) can 
partake of all the modalities in which a practitioner is inspired to 
create. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;
  
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
LFAC offers art exhibits, 
performances and spiritual workshops in our 1200 square foot Main Space.
Visit our Gift Shop to purchase artwork, CD;s and DVD&#039;s, jewelry, books
and other products of the artists, teachers and healers who present at 
our Center. The space is available for rental as well, and is perfect 
for workshops, meetings, parties yoga, dance, theater and other events. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Life
Force Arts Center opened in 2008, and is operated by Life Force Arts 
Foundation, which was founded in 1988 as a non-profit, tax exempt 501 
(c) 3 organization to present the   modern dance and performance work of
Joan Forest Mage. As Joan developed the deeper, spiritual aspects of 
her work as shamanic practice, the company grew to support the 
exploration of the art-spirituality connection.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;   &lt;/div&gt;
  &lt;/div&gt;

&lt;p&gt;
This March and April, Peter Patterson of &lt;em&gt;Patterson Glassworks&lt;/em&gt; in Mundelein, Illinois&lt;em&gt; &lt;/em&gt;is featured in the exhibition window &lt;em&gt;Waterworlds &lt;/em&gt;at the Illinois Artisans Shop, Chicago. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Patterson has worked with glass for over 25 years. He earned a BFA from the Cleveland School of Art in Cleveland, Ohio and has studied extensively at the Penland School of Craft in Penland, North Carolina. His unique use of material during the firing process has distinct visual results. The water-like depth of light is built from several surfaces of glass, color overlays, millefiori and gradually spaced bubbles. In &lt;em&gt;Waterworlds&lt;/em&gt;, Patterson uses a process he invented: incorporating phosphorus into the glass, making it glow in the dark. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&lt;em&gt;With my BFA from college majoring in illustration, I like to think of each of my pieces as an illustration. I can achieve this by pre-fusing some of my decoration or using different technique. &lt;/em&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&lt;em&gt;The inspiration for my different series comes from a variety of things including life experiences, scuba diving, working plant knowledge, graphic design and nature itself. I put these fluid motions of the water along with organic shapes derived from nature into my glass creations.&lt;/em&gt;  -Peter Patterson
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Peter Patterson is shown at galleries across the country and is in private collections worldwide. He is represented by the Illinois Artisans Shop, Chicago. All items on display are for sale. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
The Illinois Artisans Shop, a not-for-profit endeavor, is a showcase for art work created by the state&#039;s finest artisans. It provides an ongoing opportunity to view and purchase the best designed and crafted traditional, contemporary, ethnic and folk art made in Illinois. Illinois Artisans Shop, 100 W. Randolph, Ste. 2-200, 312-814-5321, Monday-Friday 9 - 5.

During the month of March, ART ON ARMITAGE: a window gallery will present Lindsay Obermeyer&#039;s A Glass Prairie, an installation that pays homage to the beauty of our natural landscape.  Fashioned from hundreds of beads and yards of wire, each wildflower is a facsimile of those native to the Midwest.  A Glass Prairie will grow over the duration of the exhibition as new flowers are added to the installation each week, filling the space with color and hope for our fragile ecosystem.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
The public is invited to an &lt;strong&gt;artist&#039;s reception &lt;span class=&quot;yshortcuts&quot;&gt;on Sunday March
7th, from 4pm&lt;/span&gt; to 6pm.&lt;/strong&gt;

A living legend...&lt;br /&gt;
March 2, 2010 thru April 9, 2010&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Nevica Project proudly presents &lt;span&gt;Warren MacKenzie - &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;em&gt;A living legend...&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Warren MacKenzie (b. 1924) is recognized as a true master of 20th
Century ceramic art. Through his traditional wheel-thrown vessels, Mr.
MacKenzie&#039;s pottery embodies strong influences from Bernard Leach and
Shoji Hamada.  His work consistently represents the confidence of where
the potter’s hand is felt and touched through the utilitarian pots that
are produced for use in everyday life.&lt;br /&gt;
This exhibition will feature over 50 different stamped pieces created by this legendary potter.&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:info@theNEVICAproject.com&quot;&gt;info@theNEVICAproject.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.theNEVICAproject.com&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.theNEVICAproject.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

While the focal point of a concert is the perform­ers, a plethora ofvisual elements are involved in creating and enhancing the experience. Artistssuch as graphic designers, illustrators, photographers and many others are allcrucial in creating this environment from the designs on the merchandise to thepromotions for the event. The visual elements that often fade into thebackground- band t-shirts, posters, album art, post-event photos, fashion,advertisements and fliers - are now the focus,givingviewers access to the excess.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:mherrera@colum.edu&quot;&gt;mherrera@colum.edu&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-event-location&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Event Location&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-text field-field-venue&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Venue:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;C33 Gallery.

&lt;span&gt;The
International Museum of Surgical Science (IMSS) presents &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Blooms, Efflorescence, and Other
Dermatological Embellishments&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;—an exhibition of jewelry and photography
by Lauren Kalman—and &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;You thought that you were alone but I caught
your bullet just in time&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;—a sculptural installation by Annie
Heckman—from March 5 through May 21, 2010. These exhibitions, the latest in the
Museum’s ongoing “Anatomy in the Gallery” program, use grotesque ornamentation
to contrast the idealized elements of conventional bodily imagery with the
realities of individual, physical bodies.&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span&gt;Blooms,
Efflorescence, and Other Dermatological Embellishments&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span&gt;
includes Kalman’s jeweled adornments that replicate the skin infections,
lesions, and sores caused by medical conditions such as acne, cancer, herpes,
and syphilis, as well as photographs of models wearing these adornments. &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;You
thought that you were alone but I caught your bullet just in time&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;
comprises glow-in-the-dark house-of-cards structures built of interlocking cut
paper pieces, each drawn upon in graphite and coated with phosphorescent paint by
Chicago artist Heckman to resemble a human or animal bone. The ongoing “Anatomy
in the Gallery” program at IMSS showcases paired exhibitions of medically
inspired contemporary art in the context of the Museum’s historical exhibits
and artifacts, all housed in a landmark turn-of-the-century mansion on Lake
Shore Drive.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:info@imss.org&quot;&gt;info@imss.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.imss.org/anatgallery.htm&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.imss.org/anatgallery.htm&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

Reflets&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;La Poesie Des Affiches&lt;/em&gt;. In &lt;em&gt;Les Reflets&lt;/em&gt; the images explore 
Aurinko&#039;s fascination with the artificial beauty and frozen perfection 
of mannequins and captured faces that inhabit store windows and gaze 
from billboards and advertisements. &lt;em&gt;La Poesie Des Affiches&lt;/em&gt; is a 
continuation of graffiti-based work begun in Madrid, New York and Paris 
years ago. Aurinko examines the layering of signage that appears in 
large cities, often plastered over &amp;quot;post no bills&amp;quot; signs, in languages 
that mirror the culture of a country.&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:bryna.shields@chicagophoto.org&quot;&gt;bryna.shields@chicagophoto.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.chicagophoto.org&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.chicagophoto.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-event-location&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Event Location&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-text field-field-venue&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Venue:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;Chicago Photography Center&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-text field-field-phone&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Phone Number:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;773-549-1631&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-postal field-field-postal-contact&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Address:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3301 N Lincoln Ave&lt;br /&gt;Chicago, IL 60657&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://maps.google.com/maps?q=3301+N+Lincoln+Ave%2C+Chicago%2C+IL%2C+60657&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Google Map&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-text field-field-neighborhood&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Neighborhood:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;Lakeview&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/fieldset&gt;

Chris Heisinger is an artist specializing in stained glass mosaics. Born and raised in Chicago, Illinois, Chris &lt;br /&gt;
has always found ways to express herself with her artwork. While attending Northwestern University, &lt;br /&gt;
she studied the Arts and Crafts movement, Native American and Chinese art history that brings a unique &lt;br /&gt;
flavor to her art pieces. &lt;br /&gt;
Over the years, Chris has worked in acrylics, ceramics, photography, stained glass and mosaics. While &lt;br /&gt;
working artistically in many media, she came back to creating artwork with glass. Since the late 1980’s &lt;br /&gt;
she has developed her artistic style through stained glass and began creating stained glass mosaics in &lt;br /&gt;
2002. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Simply Chicago Art, showcases gifted local area artists and help the community discover these incredibly talented individuals.  Using their work as inspiration, Simply Chicago Art creates an experience within the gallery that is rewarding and enjoyable for the artists and clientele.&lt;br /&gt;

Dogmatic, Art Ledge, Old Gold, Green Lantern, and Alterspace, Knock
Knock gallery embraces the domestic resonance of a site, rather than
opting for white, anonymous space. Created as a platform for site
specific work, the gallery itself presents a difinitive context for the
work. The space utilizes the upper and lower landings of a staricase
joining the streetlevel entrance and the livingspace of a southside
resedency. In addition to the main gallery space, there is a small
project room off the upper landing. Knock Knock gallery is located at
3658 S. Wolcott: on the NW corner of 37th and Wolcott.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;   &lt;/div&gt;

Coming from different regions and educational backgrounds, the artists &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;C&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;- Sui Jianguo, Zhan Wang, Shen Shaomin, and Chen Wenling &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;C&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt; each employ different materials and visual styles, but they also show commonalities.&lt;span&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;Each work is intensely engaged with important contemporary issues such as the energy crisis, materialism, and globalization.&lt;span&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;They also share inspiration from traditional Chinese art, commercial culture, folk art, and industrial machinery as they explore ways to react to a public space. Contemporary Sculptures from China is presented by the Chicago Department of Cultural Affairs, Millennium Park, in cooperation with Millennium Park Inc., and is sponsored by The Boeing Company with support from the Richard H.

The MCA offers a range of free and wildly interesting events in the cafe

cup of Joe and a tasty snack from Puck&#039;s Cafe.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A whimsical 
art party that unites artists of all skill levels. Not really an art class, not 
quite a party; it is a gathering for those who want to have a hands-on encounter 
with art. The MCA provides art supplies and participants bring ideas. There are 
special activities to guide participants through the evening of art making.

 <title>Visions from a Foxhole: The Wartime Sketches of William Foley</title>

&lt;em&gt;Visions from a Foxhole&lt;/em&gt; includes more than 40 works in pencil, ink, and oil created by William Foley, infantryman in World War II. Many come from the sketchbook he carried during the war; others show the reflections of a veteran over the decades after his service.  
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
This exhibit evokes the scarred winter landscape of the 94th Infantry Division&#039;s push to the Rhine, from shattered cities and blackened forests to the trenches where Foley and his fellow soldiers dug in for battle. There are also a number of personal vignettes of life on the front lines, as soldiers catch a chicken for dinner, take prisoners, explore a soap factory, and stand watch by a wrecked farmhouse. For a time, though his memories of the war were vivid, Foley could only recreate them in black and white. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
 The Pritzker Military Library is open from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday-Friday, and admission is free.

Since its invention, lithography has always been based in the idea that grease and water are mutually rejective and has always remained intimately connected to drawing and painting. Historically the image was created and printed from the surface of prepared limestone slabs but currently the modern ball ground aluminum plate frees the artist from many of the constraints of limestone while producing comparable printed effects. This course includes the theory, drawing techniques, processing, and printing of aluminum plate lithography. Color theory and multiple runs will also be reviewed. This class is open to students of all skill levels and will be taught by Chicago artist Richard Repasky. Class size is limited to 8 individuals. This class costs $300 including all materials except for paper and plates. Plates will be available on the first day of class. Open Studio time for the duration of the class is available for a $2 materials fee per visit.

Learn the exciting processes of printing in color through mezzotint with Chicago-based artist, Connie Wolfe. In this course, you will specifically learn how to print reductive and multi-plate color prints using mezzotint as your starting point. Preparing mezzotint plates and using secondary tonal processes such as aquatint will be covered in this class. Students will learn how to mix color inks, how to transfer key plates to additional plates, how to print multiple colors, and how colors can work together to make visually dynamic images. Additionally, students will learn how to edition, how to prepare paper, and how to sign prints. This class is open to all skill levels, so previous mezzotint knowledge is not necessary. Class size is limited to 8 individuals. This class costs $300 including all materials except for paper and plates. 3” x 4” plates will be available on the first day of class. Open Studio time for the duration of the class is available for a $2 materials fee per visit.

Instituto Cervantes Gallery&lt;br /&gt;
Exhibit will run until March 31st; Free Admission &lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The exhibit “Resiliencia”, organized by the Instituto Cervantes and in collaboration with AECID and PHotoEspaña, presents various works from 10 young artists who participated in the 2009 edition of PHE Discoveries in Latin America. The works in this exhibit present diverse perspectives on society and its ability to adapt and survive while being affected by continuous fluctuations. In Latin America, these creative processes come about in the midst of social, economic, and political turmoil. “Resiliencia” presents the work of professionals who are exploring the changes happening all around them, as well as reflecting on the role of image in our society.&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:cultura@cervantes1.org&quot;&gt;cultura@cervantes1.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://chicago.cervantes.es&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://chicago.cervantes.es&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

As the body is digitally reflected and reborn, are we looking towards technology to experience ourselves in a redeemed form outside of human societal constructs? When technology captures kinetic energy, is our essence embodied in the pixilation, or is our “self” lost in the process? Through dynamic works by Luftwerk, OpenEnded Group, and Troika Ranch, as well as the Synchronous Objects web kiosk created by William Forsythe, Maria Palazzi, and Norah Zuniga Shaw, the exhibition brings forward exploratory ideas that push and pull our perceptions of the body and impulses to move beyond it into uncharted cyber territory.  

A series of related programs, including gallery talks, discussions and workshops will be offered throughout the exhibition. For more information, visit &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.colum.edu/deps&quot; title=&quot;www.colum.edu/deps&quot;&gt;www.colum.edu/deps&lt;/a&gt;. 

&quot;Digital Incarnate&quot; is co-curated by Alycia Scott and Sara Slawnik and presented by Columbia College Chicago’s: Department of Exhibition and Performance Spaces, The Dance Center, the Ellen Stone Belic Institute for the Study of Women and Gender in the Arts and Media and the Interactive Arts and Media Department.&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:sslawnik@colum.edu&quot;&gt;sslawnik@colum.edu&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.colum.edu/deps&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.colum.edu/deps&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

This exhibition, organized by the National Gallery of Art in Washington, DC, evokes the discreet world of individual collecting to tell a less familiar story of nineteenth-century art.&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:smart-museum@uchicago.edu&quot;&gt;smart-museum@uchicago.edu&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://smartmuseum.uchicago.edu/darkersideoflight&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://smartmuseum.uchicago.edu/darkersideoflight&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

A Savannah barber, Davis spent his free time carving a diverse but unified body of highly refined sculpture that reflects his deep faith, humor, and dignity. This retrospective features 109 pieces and is organized by Susan Crawley of the High Museum of Art, Atlanta, in association with King-Tisdell Cottage Foundation of Savannah. The title comes from Davis’s explanation of why he disliked parting with his work: “They’re my treasure. If I sold these, I’d be really poor.”&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:intuit@art.org&quot;&gt;intuit@art.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.art.org&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.art.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

Sacred Geometry: Art of the &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;Mandala&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span&gt;will be presented at Life Force Arts Center Gallery, 3148 N Lincoln Ave, Chicago from February 19 - March 31, 2010&lt;/span&gt;.
This art show explores contemporary artists&#039; creations of mandalas,
which artist Diogenes Lamarche defines as &amp;quot;visual compositions, usually
based in a circular pattern, that incorporate different symbolic and
geometric patterns that can lead to shifts in consciousness,
perspectives, and energy flow.&amp;quot; The exhibit includes &lt;span&gt;paintings, sculpture and mixed media and &lt;/span&gt;features a variety of approaches to the &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;mandala&lt;/span&gt;. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;span&gt;Admission is free and gallery hours are by appointment. For more information, contact 773-327-7224 or &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; href=&quot;http://www.lifeforcearts.org//&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;span&gt;www.LifeForceArts.org&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;. &lt;/span&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Wikipedia
says that in various spiritual traditions, mandalas may be employed for
focusing attention of aspirants and adepts, as a spiritual teaching
tool, for establishing a &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Temenos&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Temenos&quot;&gt;sacred space&lt;/a&gt;, and as an aid to &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meditation&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Meditation&quot;&gt;meditation&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trance&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Trance&quot;&gt;trance&lt;/a&gt; induction. In common use, &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;mandala&lt;/span&gt; has become a generic term for any plan, chart or geometric pattern that represents the &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cosmos&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Cosmos&quot;&gt;cosmos&lt;/a&gt; metaphysically or symbolically, a &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Macrocosm_and_microcosm&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Macrocosm and microcosm&quot;&gt;microcosm&lt;/a&gt; of the &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universe&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Universe&quot;&gt;Universe&lt;/a&gt; from the human perspective.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Pat Otto, one of the artists represented in Art of the &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;Mandala&lt;/span&gt;, is also an art teacher and art therapist. &lt;em&gt;&lt;span&gt;
She says, &amp;quot;My artwork comes from images and urges of psyche that
I notice and let surface. They merge with everyday life experiences,
and I bring them into form through working with physical materials,
such as wood, wax, paint and canvas. I enjoy facilitating art
experiences for others to creatively express themselves in a way that
is deeply intuitive and insightful.  I have found, in my own work and
in working with others, that using the mandala in its most basic
form, a circle with a center, creates a safe and sacred space for
expression.  As Carl Jung said, mandalas are a symbol for the Self
seeking wholeness, and are a vehicle for healing. Often, people are
found to spontaneously express images within a circle framework at
chaotic times in their lives.&amp;quot;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;em&gt; &lt;/em&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Another
artist in the show, Steven Blaine Adams, says, &amp;quot;Crystals grow in sacred
geometric patterns, and their properties have been used since ancient
times for healing and magical purposes. As an energy healer myself, I
help clients through using crystals to balance their physical, mental,
emotional and spiritual energy. These properties make crystals ideal
materials for creating sacred mandalas for use in meditation, and I am
making three crystal mandalas for this show: the Green Man, the Sri
Yantra and the Celtic Cross.&amp;quot; 
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;

Life Force Arts Center (LFAC), 3148 N Lincoln, Chicago, 
is Chicago’s  spiritual art gallery and performance space.Our mission is
creating spiritual awakening and transformation through the visual, 
literary and performing arts. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;left&quot;&gt;
The Center presents spiritually based dance, theater, music, performance art, authors, and visual &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;artists&lt;/span&gt;
of all spiritual traditions. LFAC defines spiritual art as art that  
flows from spiritual practice, art that strives to connect the audience 
with Spirit, and art that creates spiritual healing, transformation, or
awakening. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;
   
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
At LFAC, we recognize 
and nurture the fact that Spirit moves through an individual to create 
in many forms of professional practice: art, teaching and healing. 
Spiritual artists often are teachers and healers as well. LFAC is a 
place where the public (audiences, students, clients, participants) can 
partake of all the modalities in which a practitioner is inspired to 
create. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;
  
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
LFAC offers art exhibits, 
performances and spiritual workshops in our 1200 square foot Main Space.
Visit our Gift Shop to purchase artwork, CD;s and DVD&#039;s, jewelry, books
and other products of the artists, teachers and healers who present at 
our Center. The space is available for rental as well, and is perfect 
for workshops, meetings, parties yoga, dance, theater and other events. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Life
Force Arts Center opened in 2008, and is operated by Life Force Arts 
Foundation, which was founded in 1988 as a non-profit, tax exempt 501 
(c) 3 organization to present the   modern dance and performance work of
Joan Forest Mage. As Joan developed the deeper, spiritual aspects of 
her work as shamanic practice, the company grew to support the 
exploration of the art-spirituality connection.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;   &lt;/div&gt;
  &lt;/div&gt;

&lt;p&gt;
This March and April, Peter Patterson of &lt;em&gt;Patterson Glassworks&lt;/em&gt; in Mundelein, Illinois&lt;em&gt; &lt;/em&gt;is featured in the exhibition window &lt;em&gt;Waterworlds &lt;/em&gt;at the Illinois Artisans Shop, Chicago. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Patterson has worked with glass for over 25 years. He earned a BFA from the Cleveland School of Art in Cleveland, Ohio and has studied extensively at the Penland School of Craft in Penland, North Carolina. His unique use of material during the firing process has distinct visual results. The water-like depth of light is built from several surfaces of glass, color overlays, millefiori and gradually spaced bubbles. In &lt;em&gt;Waterworlds&lt;/em&gt;, Patterson uses a process he invented: incorporating phosphorus into the glass, making it glow in the dark. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&lt;em&gt;With my BFA from college majoring in illustration, I like to think of each of my pieces as an illustration. I can achieve this by pre-fusing some of my decoration or using different technique. &lt;/em&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&lt;em&gt;The inspiration for my different series comes from a variety of things including life experiences, scuba diving, working plant knowledge, graphic design and nature itself. I put these fluid motions of the water along with organic shapes derived from nature into my glass creations.&lt;/em&gt;  -Peter Patterson
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Peter Patterson is shown at galleries across the country and is in private collections worldwide. He is represented by the Illinois Artisans Shop, Chicago. All items on display are for sale. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
The Illinois Artisans Shop, a not-for-profit endeavor, is a showcase for art work created by the state&#039;s finest artisans. It provides an ongoing opportunity to view and purchase the best designed and crafted traditional, contemporary, ethnic and folk art made in Illinois. Illinois Artisans Shop, 100 W. Randolph, Ste. 2-200, 312-814-5321, Monday-Friday 9 - 5.

During the month of March, ART ON ARMITAGE: a window gallery will present Lindsay Obermeyer&#039;s A Glass Prairie, an installation that pays homage to the beauty of our natural landscape.  Fashioned from hundreds of beads and yards of wire, each wildflower is a facsimile of those native to the Midwest.  A Glass Prairie will grow over the duration of the exhibition as new flowers are added to the installation each week, filling the space with color and hope for our fragile ecosystem.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
The public is invited to an &lt;strong&gt;artist&#039;s reception &lt;span class=&quot;yshortcuts&quot;&gt;on Sunday March
7th, from 4pm&lt;/span&gt; to 6pm.&lt;/strong&gt;

A living legend...&lt;br /&gt;
March 2, 2010 thru April 9, 2010&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Nevica Project proudly presents &lt;span&gt;Warren MacKenzie - &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;em&gt;A living legend...&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Warren MacKenzie (b. 1924) is recognized as a true master of 20th
Century ceramic art. Through his traditional wheel-thrown vessels, Mr.
MacKenzie&#039;s pottery embodies strong influences from Bernard Leach and
Shoji Hamada.  His work consistently represents the confidence of where
the potter’s hand is felt and touched through the utilitarian pots that
are produced for use in everyday life.&lt;br /&gt;
This exhibition will feature over 50 different stamped pieces created by this legendary potter.&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:info@theNEVICAproject.com&quot;&gt;info@theNEVICAproject.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.theNEVICAproject.com&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.theNEVICAproject.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

While the focal point of a concert is the perform­ers, a plethora ofvisual elements are involved in creating and enhancing the experience. Artistssuch as graphic designers, illustrators, photographers and many others are allcrucial in creating this environment from the designs on the merchandise to thepromotions for the event. The visual elements that often fade into thebackground- band t-shirts, posters, album art, post-event photos, fashion,advertisements and fliers - are now the focus,givingviewers access to the excess.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:mherrera@colum.edu&quot;&gt;mherrera@colum.edu&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-event-location&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Event Location&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-text field-field-venue&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Venue:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;C33 Gallery.

&lt;span&gt;The
International Museum of Surgical Science (IMSS) presents &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Blooms, Efflorescence, and Other
Dermatological Embellishments&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;—an exhibition of jewelry and photography
by Lauren Kalman—and &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;You thought that you were alone but I caught
your bullet just in time&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;—a sculptural installation by Annie
Heckman—from March 5 through May 21, 2010. These exhibitions, the latest in the
Museum’s ongoing “Anatomy in the Gallery” program, use grotesque ornamentation
to contrast the idealized elements of conventional bodily imagery with the
realities of individual, physical bodies.&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;

Efflorescence, and Other Dermatological Embellishments&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span&gt;
includes Kalman’s jeweled adornments that replicate the skin infections,
lesions, and sores caused by medical conditions such as acne, cancer, herpes,
and syphilis, as well as photographs of models wearing these adornments. &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;You
thought that you were alone but I caught your bullet just in time&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;
comprises glow-in-the-dark house-of-cards structures built of interlocking cut
paper pieces, each drawn upon in graphite and coated with phosphorescent paint by
Chicago artist Heckman to resemble a human or animal bone. The ongoing “Anatomy
in the Gallery” program at IMSS showcases paired exhibitions of medically
inspired contemporary art in the context of the Museum’s historical exhibits
and artifacts, all housed in a landmark turn-of-the-century mansion on Lake
Shore Drive.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:info@imss.org&quot;&gt;info@imss.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.imss.org/anatgallery.htm&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.imss.org/anatgallery.htm&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

Reflets&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;La Poesie Des Affiches&lt;/em&gt;. In &lt;em&gt;Les Reflets&lt;/em&gt; the images explore 
Aurinko&#039;s fascination with the artificial beauty and frozen perfection 
of mannequins and captured faces that inhabit store windows and gaze 
from billboards and advertisements. &lt;em&gt;La Poesie Des Affiches&lt;/em&gt; is a 
continuation of graffiti-based work begun in Madrid, New York and Paris

Chris Heisinger is an artist specializing in stained glass mosaics. Born and raised in Chicago, Illinois, Chris &lt;br /&gt;
has always found ways to express herself with her artwork. While attending Northwestern University, &lt;br /&gt;
she studied the Arts and Crafts movement, Native American and Chinese art history that brings a unique &lt;br /&gt;
flavor to her art pieces. &lt;br /&gt;
Over the years, Chris has worked in acrylics, ceramics, photography, stained glass and mosaics. While &lt;br /&gt;
working artistically in many media, she came back to creating artwork with glass. Since the late 1980’s &lt;br /&gt;
she has developed her artistic style through stained glass and began creating stained glass mosaics in &lt;br /&gt;
2002. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Simply Chicago Art, showcases gifted local area artists and help the community discover these incredibly talented individuals.  Using their work as inspiration, Simply Chicago Art creates an experience within the gallery that is rewarding and enjoyable for the artists and clientele.&lt;br /&gt;

Dogmatic, Art Ledge, Old Gold, Green Lantern, and Alterspace, Knock
Knock gallery embraces the domestic resonance of a site, rather than
opting for white, anonymous space. Created as a platform for site
specific work, the gallery itself presents a difinitive context for the
work. The space utilizes the upper and lower landings of a staricase
joining the streetlevel entrance and the livingspace of a southside
resedency. In addition to the main gallery space, there is a small
project room off the upper landing. Knock Knock gallery is located at
3658 S. Wolcott: on the NW corner of 37th and Wolcott.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;   &lt;/div&gt;

Coming from different regions and educational backgrounds, the artists &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;C&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;- Sui Jianguo, Zhan Wang, Shen Shaomin, and Chen Wenling &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;C&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt; each employ different materials and visual styles, but they also show commonalities.&lt;span&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;Each work is intensely engaged with important contemporary issues such as the energy crisis, materialism, and globalization.&lt;span&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;They also share inspiration from traditional Chinese art, commercial culture, folk art, and industrial machinery as they explore ways to react to a public space. Contemporary Sculptures from China is presented by the Chicago Department of Cultural Affairs, Millennium Park, in cooperation with Millennium Park Inc., and is sponsored by The Boeing Company with support from the Richard H.

The first Tuesday of the month 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
The MCA offers a range of free and wildly interesting events in the cafe 
almost every Tuesday evening from October through April. Museum admission is 
free to everyone on Tuesdays so come early and visit the galleries and then 
stick around for constructive entertainment accompanied by a glass of wine or a 
cup of Joe and a tasty snack from Puck&#039;s Cafe.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A whimsical 
art party that unites artists of all skill levels. Not really an art class, not 
quite a party; it is a gathering for those who want to have a hands-on encounter 
with art. The MCA provides art supplies and participants bring ideas. There are 
special activities to guide participants through the evening of art making.

The MCA documents contemporary visual culture through painting, sculpture, photography, video and film, and performance. Located in the heart of downtown Chicago, the MCA boasts a gift store, bookstore, restaurant, 300-seat theater, and a terraced sculpture garden with a great view of Lake Michigan.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Mission Statement&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The mission of the MCA is to be an innovative and compelling center of contemporary art where the public can directly experience the work and ideas of living artists, and understand the historical, social, and cultural context of the art of our time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Museum boldly interweaves exhibitions, performances, collections, and educational programs to excite, challenge, and illuminate our visitors and to provide insight into the creative process.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The MCA aspires to engage a broad and diverse audience, create a sense of community and be a place for contemplation, stimulation, and discussion about contemporary art and culture.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;   &lt;/div&gt;

 <title>Visions from a Foxhole: The Wartime Sketches of William Foley</title>

&lt;em&gt;Visions from a Foxhole&lt;/em&gt; includes more than 40 works in pencil, ink, and oil created by William Foley, infantryman in World War II. Many come from the sketchbook he carried during the war; others show the reflections of a veteran over the decades after his service.  
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
This exhibit evokes the scarred winter landscape of the 94th Infantry Division&#039;s push to the Rhine, from shattered cities and blackened forests to the trenches where Foley and his fellow soldiers dug in for battle. There are also a number of personal vignettes of life on the front lines, as soldiers catch a chicken for dinner, take prisoners, explore a soap factory, and stand watch by a wrecked farmhouse. For a time, though his memories of the war were vivid, Foley could only recreate them in black and white. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
 The Pritzker Military Library is open from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday-Friday, and admission is free.

Since its invention, lithography has always been based in the idea that grease and water are mutually rejective and has always remained intimately connected to drawing and painting. Historically the image was created and printed from the surface of prepared limestone slabs but currently the modern ball ground aluminum plate frees the artist from many of the constraints of limestone while producing comparable printed effects. This course includes the theory, drawing techniques, processing, and printing of aluminum plate lithography. Color theory and multiple runs will also be reviewed. This class is open to students of all skill levels and will be taught by Chicago artist Richard Repasky. Class size is limited to 8 individuals. This class costs $300 including all materials except for paper and plates. Plates will be available on the first day of class. Open Studio time for the duration of the class is available for a $2 materials fee per visit.

Learn the exciting processes of printing in color through mezzotint with Chicago-based artist, Connie Wolfe. In this course, you will specifically learn how to print reductive and multi-plate color prints using mezzotint as your starting point. Preparing mezzotint plates and using secondary tonal processes such as aquatint will be covered in this class. Students will learn how to mix color inks, how to transfer key plates to additional plates, how to print multiple colors, and how colors can work together to make visually dynamic images. Additionally, students will learn how to edition, how to prepare paper, and how to sign prints. This class is open to all skill levels, so previous mezzotint knowledge is not necessary. Class size is limited to 8 individuals. This class costs $300 including all materials except for paper and plates. 3” x 4” plates will be available on the first day of class. Open Studio time for the duration of the class is available for a $2 materials fee per visit.

Exhibit will run until March 31st; Free Admission &lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The exhibit “Resiliencia”, organized by the Instituto Cervantes and in collaboration with AECID and PHotoEspaña, presents various works from 10 young artists who participated in the 2009 edition of PHE Discoveries in Latin America. The works in this exhibit present diverse perspectives on society and its ability to adapt and survive while being affected by continuous fluctuations. In Latin America, these creative processes come about in the midst of social, economic, and political turmoil. “Resiliencia” presents the work of professionals who are exploring the changes happening all around them, as well as reflecting on the role of image in our society.&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:cultura@cervantes1.org&quot;&gt;cultura@cervantes1.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://chicago.cervantes.es&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://chicago.cervantes.es&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

As the body is digitally reflected and reborn, are we looking towards technology to experience ourselves in a redeemed form outside of human societal constructs? When technology captures kinetic energy, is our essence embodied in the pixilation, or is our “self” lost in the process? Through dynamic works by Luftwerk, OpenEnded Group, and Troika Ranch, as well as the Synchronous Objects web kiosk created by William Forsythe, Maria Palazzi, and Norah Zuniga Shaw, the exhibition brings forward exploratory ideas that push and pull our perceptions of the body and impulses to move beyond it into uncharted cyber territory.  

A series of related programs, including gallery talks, discussions and workshops will be offered throughout the exhibition. For more information, visit &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.colum.edu/deps&quot; title=&quot;www.colum.edu/deps&quot;&gt;www.colum.edu/deps&lt;/a&gt;. 

&quot;Digital Incarnate&quot; is co-curated by Alycia Scott and Sara Slawnik and presented by Columbia College Chicago’s: Department of Exhibition and Performance Spaces, The Dance Center, the Ellen Stone Belic Institute for the Study of Women and Gender in the Arts and Media and the Interactive Arts and Media Department.&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:sslawnik@colum.edu&quot;&gt;sslawnik@colum.edu&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.colum.edu/deps&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.colum.edu/deps&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

A Savannah barber, Davis spent his free time carving a diverse but unified body of highly refined sculpture that reflects his deep faith, humor, and dignity. This retrospective features 109 pieces and is organized by Susan Crawley of the High Museum of Art, Atlanta, in association with King-Tisdell Cottage Foundation of Savannah. The title comes from Davis’s explanation of why he disliked parting with his work: “They’re my treasure. If I sold these, I’d be really poor.”&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:intuit@art.org&quot;&gt;intuit@art.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.art.org&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.art.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

Sacred Geometry: Art of the &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;Mandala&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span&gt;will be presented at Life Force Arts Center Gallery, 3148 N Lincoln Ave, Chicago from February 19 - March 31, 2010&lt;/span&gt;.
This art show explores contemporary artists&#039; creations of mandalas,
which artist Diogenes Lamarche defines as &amp;quot;visual compositions, usually
based in a circular pattern, that incorporate different symbolic and
geometric patterns that can lead to shifts in consciousness,
perspectives, and energy flow.&amp;quot; The exhibit includes &lt;span&gt;paintings, sculpture and mixed media and &lt;/span&gt;features a variety of approaches to the &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;mandala&lt;/span&gt;. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;span&gt;Admission is free and gallery hours are by appointment. For more information, contact 773-327-7224 or &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; href=&quot;http://www.lifeforcearts.org//&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;span&gt;www.LifeForceArts.org&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;. &lt;/span&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Wikipedia
says that in various spiritual traditions, mandalas may be employed for
focusing attention of aspirants and adepts, as a spiritual teaching
tool, for establishing a &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Temenos&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Temenos&quot;&gt;sacred space&lt;/a&gt;, and as an aid to &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meditation&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Meditation&quot;&gt;meditation&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trance&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Trance&quot;&gt;trance&lt;/a&gt; induction. In common use, &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;mandala&lt;/span&gt; has become a generic term for any plan, chart or geometric pattern that represents the &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cosmos&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Cosmos&quot;&gt;cosmos&lt;/a&gt; metaphysically or symbolically, a &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Macrocosm_and_microcosm&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Macrocosm and microcosm&quot;&gt;microcosm&lt;/a&gt; of the &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universe&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Universe&quot;&gt;Universe&lt;/a&gt; from the human perspective.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Pat Otto, one of the artists represented in Art of the &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;Mandala&lt;/span&gt;, is also an art teacher and art therapist. &lt;em&gt;&lt;span&gt;
She says, &amp;quot;My artwork comes from images and urges of psyche that
I notice and let surface. They merge with everyday life experiences,
and I bring them into form through working with physical materials,
such as wood, wax, paint and canvas. I enjoy facilitating art
experiences for others to creatively express themselves in a way that
is deeply intuitive and insightful.  I have found, in my own work and
in working with others, that using the mandala in its most basic
form, a circle with a center, creates a safe and sacred space for
expression.  As Carl Jung said, mandalas are a symbol for the Self
seeking wholeness, and are a vehicle for healing. Often, people are
found to spontaneously express images within a circle framework at
chaotic times in their lives.&amp;quot;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;em&gt; &lt;/em&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Another
artist in the show, Steven Blaine Adams, says, &amp;quot;Crystals grow in sacred
geometric patterns, and their properties have been used since ancient
times for healing and magical purposes. As an energy healer myself, I
help clients through using crystals to balance their physical, mental,
emotional and spiritual energy. These properties make crystals ideal
materials for creating sacred mandalas for use in meditation, and I am
making three crystal mandalas for this show: the Green Man, the Sri
Yantra and the Celtic Cross.&amp;quot; 
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;

Life Force Arts Center (LFAC), 3148 N Lincoln, Chicago, 
is Chicago’s  spiritual art gallery and performance space.Our mission is
creating spiritual awakening and transformation through the visual, 
literary and performing arts. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;left&quot;&gt;
The Center presents spiritually based dance, theater, music, performance art, authors, and visual &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;artists&lt;/span&gt;
of all spiritual traditions. LFAC defines spiritual art as art that  
flows from spiritual practice, art that strives to connect the audience 
with Spirit, and art that creates spiritual healing, transformation, or
awakening. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;
   
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
At LFAC, we recognize 
and nurture the fact that Spirit moves through an individual to create 
in many forms of professional practice: art, teaching and healing. 
Spiritual artists often are teachers and healers as well. LFAC is a 
place where the public (audiences, students, clients, participants) can 
partake of all the modalities in which a practitioner is inspired to 
create. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;
  
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
LFAC offers art exhibits, 
performances and spiritual workshops in our 1200 square foot Main Space.
Visit our Gift Shop to purchase artwork, CD;s and DVD&#039;s, jewelry, books
and other products of the artists, teachers and healers who present at 
our Center. The space is available for rental as well, and is perfect 
for workshops, meetings, parties yoga, dance, theater and other events. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Life
Force Arts Center opened in 2008, and is operated by Life Force Arts 
Foundation, which was founded in 1988 as a non-profit, tax exempt 501 
(c) 3 organization to present the   modern dance and performance work of
Joan Forest Mage. As Joan developed the deeper, spiritual aspects of 
her work as shamanic practice, the company grew to support the 
exploration of the art-spirituality connection.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;   &lt;/div&gt;
  &lt;/div&gt;

&lt;p&gt;
This March and April, Peter Patterson of &lt;em&gt;Patterson Glassworks&lt;/em&gt; in Mundelein, Illinois&lt;em&gt; &lt;/em&gt;is featured in the exhibition window &lt;em&gt;Waterworlds &lt;/em&gt;at the Illinois Artisans Shop, Chicago. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Patterson has worked with glass for over 25 years. He earned a BFA from the Cleveland School of Art in Cleveland, Ohio and has studied extensively at the Penland School of Craft in Penland, North Carolina. His unique use of material during the firing process has distinct visual results. The water-like depth of light is built from several surfaces of glass, color overlays, millefiori and gradually spaced bubbles. In &lt;em&gt;Waterworlds&lt;/em&gt;, Patterson uses a process he invented: incorporating phosphorus into the glass, making it glow in the dark. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&lt;em&gt;With my BFA from college majoring in illustration, I like to think of each of my pieces as an illustration. I can achieve this by pre-fusing some of my decoration or using different technique. &lt;/em&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&lt;em&gt;The inspiration for my different series comes from a variety of things including life experiences, scuba diving, working plant knowledge, graphic design and nature itself. I put these fluid motions of the water along with organic shapes derived from nature into my glass creations.&lt;/em&gt;  -Peter Patterson
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Peter Patterson is shown at galleries across the country and is in private collections worldwide. He is represented by the Illinois Artisans Shop, Chicago. All items on display are for sale. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
The Illinois Artisans Shop, a not-for-profit endeavor, is a showcase for art work created by the state&#039;s finest artisans. It provides an ongoing opportunity to view and purchase the best designed and crafted traditional, contemporary, ethnic and folk art made in Illinois. Illinois Artisans Shop, 100 W. Randolph, Ste. 2-200, 312-814-5321, Monday-Friday 9 - 5.

During the month of March, ART ON ARMITAGE: a window gallery will present Lindsay Obermeyer&#039;s A Glass Prairie, an installation that pays homage to the beauty of our natural landscape.  Fashioned from hundreds of beads and yards of wire, each wildflower is a facsimile of those native to the Midwest.  A Glass Prairie will grow over the duration of the exhibition as new flowers are added to the installation each week, filling the space with color and hope for our fragile ecosystem.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
The public is invited to an &lt;strong&gt;artist&#039;s reception &lt;span class=&quot;yshortcuts&quot;&gt;on Sunday March
7th, from 4pm&lt;/span&gt; to 6pm.&lt;/strong&gt;

A living legend...&lt;br /&gt;
March 2, 2010 thru April 9, 2010&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Nevica Project proudly presents &lt;span&gt;Warren MacKenzie - &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;em&gt;A living legend...&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Warren MacKenzie (b. 1924) is recognized as a true master of 20th
Century ceramic art. Through his traditional wheel-thrown vessels, Mr.
MacKenzie&#039;s pottery embodies strong influences from Bernard Leach and
Shoji Hamada.  His work consistently represents the confidence of where
the potter’s hand is felt and touched through the utilitarian pots that
are produced for use in everyday life.&lt;br /&gt;
This exhibition will feature over 50 different stamped pieces created by this legendary potter.&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:info@theNEVICAproject.com&quot;&gt;info@theNEVICAproject.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.theNEVICAproject.com&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.theNEVICAproject.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

While the focal point of a concert is the perform­ers, a plethora ofvisual elements are involved in creating and enhancing the experience. Artistssuch as graphic designers, illustrators, photographers and many others are allcrucial in creating this environment from the designs on the merchandise to thepromotions for the event. The visual elements that often fade into thebackground- band t-shirts, posters, album art, post-event photos, fashion,advertisements and fliers - are now the focus,givingviewers access to the excess.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:mherrera@colum.edu&quot;&gt;mherrera@colum.edu&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-event-location&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Event Location&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-text field-field-venue&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Venue:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;C33 Gallery.

&lt;span&gt;The
International Museum of Surgical Science (IMSS) presents &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Blooms, Efflorescence, and Other
Dermatological Embellishments&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;—an exhibition of jewelry and photography
by Lauren Kalman—and &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;You thought that you were alone but I caught
your bullet just in time&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;—a sculptural installation by Annie
Heckman—from March 5 through May 21, 2010. These exhibitions, the latest in the
Museum’s ongoing “Anatomy in the Gallery” program, use grotesque ornamentation
to contrast the idealized elements of conventional bodily imagery with the
realities of individual, physical bodies.&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;

&lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;&lt;span&gt;Blooms,
Efflorescence, and Other Dermatological Embellishments&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span&gt;
includes Kalman’s jeweled adornments that replicate the skin infections,
lesions, and sores caused by medical conditions such as acne, cancer, herpes,
and syphilis, as well as photographs of models wearing these adornments. &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;You
thought that you were alone but I caught your bullet just in time&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;
comprises glow-in-the-dark house-of-cards structures built of interlocking cut
paper pieces, each drawn upon in graphite and coated with phosphorescent paint by
Chicago artist Heckman to resemble a human or animal bone. The ongoing “Anatomy
in the Gallery” program at IMSS showcases paired exhibitions of medically
inspired contemporary art in the context of the Museum’s historical exhibits
and artifacts, all housed in a landmark turn-of-the-century mansion on Lake
Shore Drive.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:info@imss.org&quot;&gt;info@imss.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.imss.org/anatgallery.htm&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.imss.org/anatgallery.htm&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

Reflets&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;La Poesie Des Affiches&lt;/em&gt;. In &lt;em&gt;Les Reflets&lt;/em&gt; the images explore 
Aurinko&#039;s fascination with the artificial beauty and frozen perfection 
of mannequins and captured faces that inhabit store windows and gaze 
from billboards and advertisements. &lt;em&gt;La Poesie Des Affiches&lt;/em&gt; is a 
continuation of graffiti-based work begun in Madrid, New York and Paris 
years ago. Aurinko examines the layering of signage that appears in 
large cities, often plastered over &amp;quot;post no bills&amp;quot; signs, in languages 
that mirror the culture of a country.&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:bryna.shields@chicagophoto.org&quot;&gt;bryna.shields@chicagophoto.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.chicagophoto.org&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.chicagophoto.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-event-location&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Event Location&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-text field-field-venue&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Venue:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;Chicago Photography Center&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-text field-field-phone&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Phone Number:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;773-549-1631&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-postal field-field-postal-contact&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Address:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;br /&gt;3301 N Lincoln Ave&lt;br /&gt;Chicago, IL 60657&lt;br /&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://maps.google.com/maps?q=3301+N+Lincoln+Ave%2C+Chicago%2C+IL%2C+60657&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;Google Map&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-text field-field-neighborhood&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Neighborhood:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;Lakeview&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/fieldset&gt;

Chris Heisinger is an artist specializing in stained glass mosaics. Born and raised in Chicago, Illinois, Chris &lt;br /&gt;
has always found ways to express herself with her artwork. While attending Northwestern University, &lt;br /&gt;
she studied the Arts and Crafts movement, Native American and Chinese art history that brings a unique &lt;br /&gt;
flavor to her art pieces. &lt;br /&gt;
Over the years, Chris has worked in acrylics, ceramics, photography, stained glass and mosaics. While &lt;br /&gt;
working artistically in many media, she came back to creating artwork with glass. Since the late 1980’s &lt;br /&gt;
she has developed her artistic style through stained glass and began creating stained glass mosaics in &lt;br /&gt;
2002. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Simply Chicago Art, showcases gifted local area artists and help the community discover these incredibly talented individuals.  Using their work as inspiration, Simply Chicago Art creates an experience within the gallery that is rewarding and enjoyable for the artists and clientele.&lt;br /&gt;

Dogmatic, Art Ledge, Old Gold, Green Lantern, and Alterspace, Knock
Knock gallery embraces the domestic resonance of a site, rather than
opting for white, anonymous space. Created as a platform for site
specific work, the gallery itself presents a difinitive context for the
work. The space utilizes the upper and lower landings of a staricase
joining the streetlevel entrance and the livingspace of a southside
resedency. In addition to the main gallery space, there is a small
project room off the upper landing. Knock Knock gallery is located at
3658 S. Wolcott: on the NW corner of 37th and Wolcott.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;   &lt;/div&gt;

Coming from different regions and educational backgrounds, the artists &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;C&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;- Sui Jianguo, Zhan Wang, Shen Shaomin, and Chen Wenling &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;C&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt; each employ different materials and visual styles, but they also show commonalities.&lt;span&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;Each work is intensely engaged with important contemporary issues such as the energy crisis, materialism, and globalization.&lt;span&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;They also share inspiration from traditional Chinese art, commercial culture, folk art, and industrial machinery as they explore ways to react to a public space. Contemporary Sculptures from China is presented by the Chicago Department of Cultural Affairs, Millennium Park, in cooperation with Millennium Park Inc., and is sponsored by The Boeing Company with support from the Richard H.

The MCA offers a range of free and wildly interesting events in the cafe

cup of Joe and a tasty snack from Puck&#039;s Cafe.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A whimsical 
art party that unites artists of all skill levels. Not really an art class, not 
quite a party; it is a gathering for those who want to have a hands-on encounter 
with art. The MCA provides art supplies and participants bring ideas. There are 
special activities to guide participants through the evening of art making.

 <title>Visions from a Foxhole: The Wartime Sketches of William Foley</title>

&lt;em&gt;Visions from a Foxhole&lt;/em&gt; includes more than 40 works in pencil, ink, and oil created by William Foley, infantryman in World War II. Many come from the sketchbook he carried during the war; others show the reflections of a veteran over the decades after his service.  
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
This exhibit evokes the scarred winter landscape of the 94th Infantry Division&#039;s push to the Rhine, from shattered cities and blackened forests to the trenches where Foley and his fellow soldiers dug in for battle. There are also a number of personal vignettes of life on the front lines, as soldiers catch a chicken for dinner, take prisoners, explore a soap factory, and stand watch by a wrecked farmhouse. For a time, though his memories of the war were vivid, Foley could only recreate them in black and white. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
 The Pritzker Military Library is open from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday-Friday, and admission is free.

Since its invention, lithography has always been based in the idea that grease and water are mutually rejective and has always remained intimately connected to drawing and painting. Historically the image was created and printed from the surface of prepared limestone slabs but currently the modern ball ground aluminum plate frees the artist from many of the constraints of limestone while producing comparable printed effects. This course includes the theory, drawing techniques, processing, and printing of aluminum plate lithography. Color theory and multiple runs will also be reviewed. This class is open to students of all skill levels and will be taught by Chicago artist Richard Repasky. Class size is limited to 8 individuals. This class costs $300 including all materials except for paper and plates. Plates will be available on the first day of class. Open Studio time for the duration of the class is available for a $2 materials fee per visit.

Learn the exciting processes of printing in color through mezzotint with Chicago-based artist, Connie Wolfe. In this course, you will specifically learn how to print reductive and multi-plate color prints using mezzotint as your starting point. Preparing mezzotint plates and using secondary tonal processes such as aquatint will be covered in this class. Students will learn how to mix color inks, how to transfer key plates to additional plates, how to print multiple colors, and how colors can work together to make visually dynamic images. Additionally, students will learn how to edition, how to prepare paper, and how to sign prints. This class is open to all skill levels, so previous mezzotint knowledge is not necessary. Class size is limited to 8 individuals. This class costs $300 including all materials except for paper and plates. 3” x 4” plates will be available on the first day of class. Open Studio time for the duration of the class is available for a $2 materials fee per visit.

Instituto Cervantes Gallery&lt;br /&gt;
Exhibit will run until March 31st; Free Admission &lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The exhibit “Resiliencia”, organized by the Instituto Cervantes and in collaboration with AECID and PHotoEspaña, presents various works from 10 young artists who participated in the 2009 edition of PHE Discoveries in Latin America. The works in this exhibit present diverse perspectives on society and its ability to adapt and survive while being affected by continuous fluctuations. In Latin America, these creative processes come about in the midst of social, economic, and political turmoil. “Resiliencia” presents the work of professionals who are exploring the changes happening all around them, as well as reflecting on the role of image in our society.&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:cultura@cervantes1.org&quot;&gt;cultura@cervantes1.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://chicago.cervantes.es&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://chicago.cervantes.es&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

As the body is digitally reflected and reborn, are we looking towards technology to experience ourselves in a redeemed form outside of human societal constructs? When technology captures kinetic energy, is our essence embodied in the pixilation, or is our “self” lost in the process? Through dynamic works by Luftwerk, OpenEnded Group, and Troika Ranch, as well as the Synchronous Objects web kiosk created by William Forsythe, Maria Palazzi, and Norah Zuniga Shaw, the exhibition brings forward exploratory ideas that push and pull our perceptions of the body and impulses to move beyond it into uncharted cyber territory.  

A series of related programs, including gallery talks, discussions and workshops will be offered throughout the exhibition. For more information, visit &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.colum.edu/deps&quot; title=&quot;www.colum.edu/deps&quot;&gt;www.colum.edu/deps&lt;/a&gt;. 

&quot;Digital Incarnate&quot; is co-curated by Alycia Scott and Sara Slawnik and presented by Columbia College Chicago’s: Department of Exhibition and Performance Spaces, The Dance Center, the Ellen Stone Belic Institute for the Study of Women and Gender in the Arts and Media and the Interactive Arts and Media Department.&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:sslawnik@colum.edu&quot;&gt;sslawnik@colum.edu&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.colum.edu/deps&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.colum.edu/deps&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

This exhibition, organized by the National Gallery of Art in Washington, DC, evokes the discreet world of individual collecting to tell a less familiar story of nineteenth-century art.&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:smart-museum@uchicago.edu&quot;&gt;smart-museum@uchicago.edu&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://smartmuseum.uchicago.edu/darkersideoflight&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://smartmuseum.uchicago.edu/darkersideoflight&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

A Savannah barber, Davis spent his free time carving a diverse but unified body of highly refined sculpture that reflects his deep faith, humor, and dignity. This retrospective features 109 pieces and is organized by Susan Crawley of the High Museum of Art, Atlanta, in association with King-Tisdell Cottage Foundation of Savannah. The title comes from Davis’s explanation of why he disliked parting with his work: “They’re my treasure. If I sold these, I’d be really poor.”&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:intuit@art.org&quot;&gt;intuit@art.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.art.org&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.art.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

Sacred Geometry: Art of the &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;Mandala&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span&gt;will be presented at Life Force Arts Center Gallery, 3148 N Lincoln Ave, Chicago from February 19 - March 31, 2010&lt;/span&gt;.
This art show explores contemporary artists&#039; creations of mandalas,
which artist Diogenes Lamarche defines as &amp;quot;visual compositions, usually
based in a circular pattern, that incorporate different symbolic and
geometric patterns that can lead to shifts in consciousness,
perspectives, and energy flow.&amp;quot; The exhibit includes &lt;span&gt;paintings, sculpture and mixed media and &lt;/span&gt;features a variety of approaches to the &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;mandala&lt;/span&gt;. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;span&gt;Admission is free and gallery hours are by appointment. For more information, contact 773-327-7224 or &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; href=&quot;http://www.lifeforcearts.org//&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;span&gt;www.LifeForceArts.org&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;. &lt;/span&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Wikipedia
says that in various spiritual traditions, mandalas may be employed for
focusing attention of aspirants and adepts, as a spiritual teaching
tool, for establishing a &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Temenos&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Temenos&quot;&gt;sacred space&lt;/a&gt;, and as an aid to &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meditation&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Meditation&quot;&gt;meditation&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trance&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Trance&quot;&gt;trance&lt;/a&gt; induction. In common use, &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;mandala&lt;/span&gt; has become a generic term for any plan, chart or geometric pattern that represents the &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cosmos&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Cosmos&quot;&gt;cosmos&lt;/a&gt; metaphysically or symbolically, a &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Macrocosm_and_microcosm&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Macrocosm and microcosm&quot;&gt;microcosm&lt;/a&gt; of the &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universe&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Universe&quot;&gt;Universe&lt;/a&gt; from the human perspective.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Pat Otto, one of the artists represented in Art of the &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;Mandala&lt;/span&gt;, is also an art teacher and art therapist. &lt;em&gt;&lt;span&gt;
She says, &amp;quot;My artwork comes from images and urges of psyche that
I notice and let surface. They merge with everyday life experiences,
and I bring them into form through working with physical materials,
such as wood, wax, paint and canvas. I enjoy facilitating art
experiences for others to creatively express themselves in a way that
is deeply intuitive and insightful.  I have found, in my own work and
in working with others, that using the mandala in its most basic
form, a circle with a center, creates a safe and sacred space for
expression.  As Carl Jung said, mandalas are a symbol for the Self
seeking wholeness, and are a vehicle for healing. Often, people are
found to spontaneously express images within a circle framework at
chaotic times in their lives.&amp;quot;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;em&gt; &lt;/em&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Another
artist in the show, Steven Blaine Adams, says, &amp;quot;Crystals grow in sacred
geometric patterns, and their properties have been used since ancient
times for healing and magical purposes. As an energy healer myself, I
help clients through using crystals to balance their physical, mental,
emotional and spiritual energy. These properties make crystals ideal
materials for creating sacred mandalas for use in meditation, and I am
making three crystal mandalas for this show: the Green Man, the Sri
Yantra and the Celtic Cross.&amp;quot; 
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;

Life Force Arts Center (LFAC), 3148 N Lincoln, Chicago, 
is Chicago’s  spiritual art gallery and performance space.Our mission is
creating spiritual awakening and transformation through the visual, 
literary and performing arts. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;left&quot;&gt;
The Center presents spiritually based dance, theater, music, performance art, authors, and visual &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;artists&lt;/span&gt;
of all spiritual traditions. LFAC defines spiritual art as art that  
flows from spiritual practice, art that strives to connect the audience 
with Spirit, and art that creates spiritual healing, transformation, or
awakening. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;
   
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
At LFAC, we recognize 
and nurture the fact that Spirit moves through an individual to create 
in many forms of professional practice: art, teaching and healing. 
Spiritual artists often are teachers and healers as well. LFAC is a 
place where the public (audiences, students, clients, participants) can 
partake of all the modalities in which a practitioner is inspired to 
create. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;
  
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
LFAC offers art exhibits, 
performances and spiritual workshops in our 1200 square foot Main Space.
Visit our Gift Shop to purchase artwork, CD;s and DVD&#039;s, jewelry, books
and other products of the artists, teachers and healers who present at 
our Center. The space is available for rental as well, and is perfect 
for workshops, meetings, parties yoga, dance, theater and other events. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Life
Force Arts Center opened in 2008, and is operated by Life Force Arts 
Foundation, which was founded in 1988 as a non-profit, tax exempt 501 
(c) 3 organization to present the   modern dance and performance work of
Joan Forest Mage. As Joan developed the deeper, spiritual aspects of 
her work as shamanic practice, the company grew to support the 
exploration of the art-spirituality connection.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;   &lt;/div&gt;
  &lt;/div&gt;

&lt;p&gt;
This March and April, Peter Patterson of &lt;em&gt;Patterson Glassworks&lt;/em&gt; in Mundelein, Illinois&lt;em&gt; &lt;/em&gt;is featured in the exhibition window &lt;em&gt;Waterworlds &lt;/em&gt;at the Illinois Artisans Shop, Chicago. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Patterson has worked with glass for over 25 years. He earned a BFA from the Cleveland School of Art in Cleveland, Ohio and has studied extensively at the Penland School of Craft in Penland, North Carolina. His unique use of material during the firing process has distinct visual results. The water-like depth of light is built from several surfaces of glass, color overlays, millefiori and gradually spaced bubbles. In &lt;em&gt;Waterworlds&lt;/em&gt;, Patterson uses a process he invented: incorporating phosphorus into the glass, making it glow in the dark. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&lt;em&gt;With my BFA from college majoring in illustration, I like to think of each of my pieces as an illustration. I can achieve this by pre-fusing some of my decoration or using different technique. &lt;/em&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&lt;em&gt;The inspiration for my different series comes from a variety of things including life experiences, scuba diving, working plant knowledge, graphic design and nature itself. I put these fluid motions of the water along with organic shapes derived from nature into my glass creations.&lt;/em&gt;  -Peter Patterson
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Peter Patterson is shown at galleries across the country and is in private collections worldwide. He is represented by the Illinois Artisans Shop, Chicago. All items on display are for sale. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
The Illinois Artisans Shop, a not-for-profit endeavor, is a showcase for art work created by the state&#039;s finest artisans. It provides an ongoing opportunity to view and purchase the best designed and crafted traditional, contemporary, ethnic and folk art made in Illinois. Illinois Artisans Shop, 100 W. Randolph, Ste. 2-200, 312-814-5321, Monday-Friday 9 - 5.

During the month of March, ART ON ARMITAGE: a window gallery will present Lindsay Obermeyer&#039;s A Glass Prairie, an installation that pays homage to the beauty of our natural landscape.  Fashioned from hundreds of beads and yards of wire, each wildflower is a facsimile of those native to the Midwest.  A Glass Prairie will grow over the duration of the exhibition as new flowers are added to the installation each week, filling the space with color and hope for our fragile ecosystem.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
The public is invited to an &lt;strong&gt;artist&#039;s reception &lt;span class=&quot;yshortcuts&quot;&gt;on Sunday March
7th, from 4pm&lt;/span&gt; to 6pm.&lt;/strong&gt;

A living legend...&lt;br /&gt;
March 2, 2010 thru April 9, 2010&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Nevica Project proudly presents &lt;span&gt;Warren MacKenzie - &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;em&gt;A living legend...&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Warren MacKenzie (b. 1924) is recognized as a true master of 20th
Century ceramic art. Through his traditional wheel-thrown vessels, Mr.
MacKenzie&#039;s pottery embodies strong influences from Bernard Leach and
Shoji Hamada.  His work consistently represents the confidence of where
the potter’s hand is felt and touched through the utilitarian pots that
are produced for use in everyday life.&lt;br /&gt;
This exhibition will feature over 50 different stamped pieces created by this legendary potter.&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:info@theNEVICAproject.com&quot;&gt;info@theNEVICAproject.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.theNEVICAproject.com&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.theNEVICAproject.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

While the focal point of a concert is the perform­ers, a plethora ofvisual elements are involved in creating and enhancing the experience. Artistssuch as graphic designers, illustrators, photographers and many others are allcrucial in creating this environment from the designs on the merchandise to thepromotions for the event. The visual elements that often fade into thebackground- band t-shirts, posters, album art, post-event photos, fashion,advertisements and fliers - are now the focus,givingviewers access to the excess.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/p&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:mherrera@colum.edu&quot;&gt;mherrera@colum.edu&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-event-location&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Event Location&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-text field-field-venue&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Venue:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;C33 Gallery.

&lt;span&gt;The
International Museum of Surgical Science (IMSS) presents &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;Blooms, Efflorescence, and Other
Dermatological Embellishments&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;—an exhibition of jewelry and photography
by Lauren Kalman—and &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;You thought that you were alone but I caught
your bullet just in time&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;—a sculptural installation by Annie
Heckman—from March 5 through May 21, 2010. These exhibitions, the latest in the
Museum’s ongoing “Anatomy in the Gallery” program, use grotesque ornamentation
to contrast the idealized elements of conventional bodily imagery with the
realities of individual, physical bodies.&lt;/span&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;

Efflorescence, and Other Dermatological Embellishments&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;span&gt;
includes Kalman’s jeweled adornments that replicate the skin infections,
lesions, and sores caused by medical conditions such as acne, cancer, herpes,
and syphilis, as well as photographs of models wearing these adornments. &lt;strong&gt;&lt;em&gt;You
thought that you were alone but I caught your bullet just in time&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/strong&gt;
comprises glow-in-the-dark house-of-cards structures built of interlocking cut
paper pieces, each drawn upon in graphite and coated with phosphorescent paint by
Chicago artist Heckman to resemble a human or animal bone. The ongoing “Anatomy
in the Gallery” program at IMSS showcases paired exhibitions of medically
inspired contemporary art in the context of the Museum’s historical exhibits
and artifacts, all housed in a landmark turn-of-the-century mansion on Lake
Shore Drive.&lt;/span&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:info@imss.org&quot;&gt;info@imss.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.imss.org/anatgallery.htm&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.imss.org/anatgallery.htm&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

Reflets&lt;/em&gt; and &lt;em&gt;La Poesie Des Affiches&lt;/em&gt;. In &lt;em&gt;Les Reflets&lt;/em&gt; the images explore 
Aurinko&#039;s fascination with the artificial beauty and frozen perfection 
of mannequins and captured faces that inhabit store windows and gaze 
from billboards and advertisements. &lt;em&gt;La Poesie Des Affiches&lt;/em&gt; is a 
continuation of graffiti-based work begun in Madrid, New York and Paris

Chris Heisinger is an artist specializing in stained glass mosaics. Born and raised in Chicago, Illinois, Chris &lt;br /&gt;
has always found ways to express herself with her artwork. While attending Northwestern University, &lt;br /&gt;
she studied the Arts and Crafts movement, Native American and Chinese art history that brings a unique &lt;br /&gt;
flavor to her art pieces. &lt;br /&gt;
Over the years, Chris has worked in acrylics, ceramics, photography, stained glass and mosaics. While &lt;br /&gt;
working artistically in many media, she came back to creating artwork with glass. Since the late 1980’s &lt;br /&gt;
she has developed her artistic style through stained glass and began creating stained glass mosaics in &lt;br /&gt;
2002. &lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
Simply Chicago Art, showcases gifted local area artists and help the community discover these incredibly talented individuals.  Using their work as inspiration, Simply Chicago Art creates an experience within the gallery that is rewarding and enjoyable for the artists and clientele.&lt;br /&gt;

Dogmatic, Art Ledge, Old Gold, Green Lantern, and Alterspace, Knock
Knock gallery embraces the domestic resonance of a site, rather than
opting for white, anonymous space. Created as a platform for site
specific work, the gallery itself presents a difinitive context for the
work. The space utilizes the upper and lower landings of a staricase
joining the streetlevel entrance and the livingspace of a southside
resedency. In addition to the main gallery space, there is a small
project room off the upper landing. Knock Knock gallery is located at
3658 S. Wolcott: on the NW corner of 37th and Wolcott.&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;   &lt;/div&gt;

Coming from different regions and educational backgrounds, the artists &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;C&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;- Sui Jianguo, Zhan Wang, Shen Shaomin, and Chen Wenling &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;span&gt;C&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt; each employ different materials and visual styles, but they also show commonalities.&lt;span&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;Each work is intensely engaged with important contemporary issues such as the energy crisis, materialism, and globalization.&lt;span&gt;  &lt;/span&gt;They also share inspiration from traditional Chinese art, commercial culture, folk art, and industrial machinery as they explore ways to react to a public space. Contemporary Sculptures from China is presented by the Chicago Department of Cultural Affairs, Millennium Park, in cooperation with Millennium Park Inc., and is sponsored by The Boeing Company with support from the Richard H.

The first Tuesday of the month 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
The MCA offers a range of free and wildly interesting events in the cafe 
almost every Tuesday evening from October through April. Museum admission is 
free to everyone on Tuesdays so come early and visit the galleries and then 
stick around for constructive entertainment accompanied by a glass of wine or a 
cup of Joe and a tasty snack from Puck&#039;s Cafe.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
A whimsical 
art party that unites artists of all skill levels. Not really an art class, not 
quite a party; it is a gathering for those who want to have a hands-on encounter 
with art. The MCA provides art supplies and participants bring ideas. There are 
special activities to guide participants through the evening of art making.

The MCA documents contemporary visual culture through painting, sculpture, photography, video and film, and performance. Located in the heart of downtown Chicago, the MCA boasts a gift store, bookstore, restaurant, 300-seat theater, and a terraced sculpture garden with a great view of Lake Michigan.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;strong&gt;Mission Statement&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
The mission of the MCA is to be an innovative and compelling center of contemporary art where the public can directly experience the work and ideas of living artists, and understand the historical, social, and cultural context of the art of our time.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Museum boldly interweaves exhibitions, performances, collections, and educational programs to excite, challenge, and illuminate our visitors and to provide insight into the creative process.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The MCA aspires to engage a broad and diverse audience, create a sense of community and be a place for contemplation, stimulation, and discussion about contemporary art and culture.&lt;br /&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;   &lt;/div&gt;

 <title>Visions from a Foxhole: The Wartime Sketches of William Foley</title>

&lt;em&gt;Visions from a Foxhole&lt;/em&gt; includes more than 40 works in pencil, ink, and oil created by William Foley, infantryman in World War II. Many come from the sketchbook he carried during the war; others show the reflections of a veteran over the decades after his service.  
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
This exhibit evokes the scarred winter landscape of the 94th Infantry Division&#039;s push to the Rhine, from shattered cities and blackened forests to the trenches where Foley and his fellow soldiers dug in for battle. There are also a number of personal vignettes of life on the front lines, as soldiers catch a chicken for dinner, take prisoners, explore a soap factory, and stand watch by a wrecked farmhouse. For a time, though his memories of the war were vivid, Foley could only recreate them in black and white. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
 The Pritzker Military Library is open from 8:30 a.m. to 4:30 p.m. Monday-Friday, and admission is free.

Since its invention, lithography has always been based in the idea that grease and water are mutually rejective and has always remained intimately connected to drawing and painting. Historically the image was created and printed from the surface of prepared limestone slabs but currently the modern ball ground aluminum plate frees the artist from many of the constraints of limestone while producing comparable printed effects. This course includes the theory, drawing techniques, processing, and printing of aluminum plate lithography. Color theory and multiple runs will also be reviewed. This class is open to students of all skill levels and will be taught by Chicago artist Richard Repasky. Class size is limited to 8 individuals. This class costs $300 including all materials except for paper and plates. Plates will be available on the first day of class. Open Studio time for the duration of the class is available for a $2 materials fee per visit.

Learn the exciting processes of printing in color through mezzotint with Chicago-based artist, Connie Wolfe. In this course, you will specifically learn how to print reductive and multi-plate color prints using mezzotint as your starting point. Preparing mezzotint plates and using secondary tonal processes such as aquatint will be covered in this class. Students will learn how to mix color inks, how to transfer key plates to additional plates, how to print multiple colors, and how colors can work together to make visually dynamic images. Additionally, students will learn how to edition, how to prepare paper, and how to sign prints. This class is open to all skill levels, so previous mezzotint knowledge is not necessary. Class size is limited to 8 individuals. This class costs $300 including all materials except for paper and plates. 3” x 4” plates will be available on the first day of class. Open Studio time for the duration of the class is available for a $2 materials fee per visit.

Exhibit will run until March 31st; Free Admission &lt;br /&gt;
 &lt;br /&gt;
The exhibit “Resiliencia”, organized by the Instituto Cervantes and in collaboration with AECID and PHotoEspaña, presents various works from 10 young artists who participated in the 2009 edition of PHE Discoveries in Latin America. The works in this exhibit present diverse perspectives on society and its ability to adapt and survive while being affected by continuous fluctuations. In Latin America, these creative processes come about in the midst of social, economic, and political turmoil. “Resiliencia” presents the work of professionals who are exploring the changes happening all around them, as well as reflecting on the role of image in our society.&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:cultura@cervantes1.org&quot;&gt;cultura@cervantes1.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://chicago.cervantes.es&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://chicago.cervantes.es&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

As the body is digitally reflected and reborn, are we looking towards technology to experience ourselves in a redeemed form outside of human societal constructs? When technology captures kinetic energy, is our essence embodied in the pixilation, or is our “self” lost in the process? Through dynamic works by Luftwerk, OpenEnded Group, and Troika Ranch, as well as the Synchronous Objects web kiosk created by William Forsythe, Maria Palazzi, and Norah Zuniga Shaw, the exhibition brings forward exploratory ideas that push and pull our perceptions of the body and impulses to move beyond it into uncharted cyber territory.  

A series of related programs, including gallery talks, discussions and workshops will be offered throughout the exhibition. For more information, visit &lt;a href=&quot;http://www.colum.edu/deps&quot; title=&quot;www.colum.edu/deps&quot;&gt;www.colum.edu/deps&lt;/a&gt;. 

&quot;Digital Incarnate&quot; is co-curated by Alycia Scott and Sara Slawnik and presented by Columbia College Chicago’s: Department of Exhibition and Performance Spaces, The Dance Center, the Ellen Stone Belic Institute for the Study of Women and Gender in the Arts and Media and the Interactive Arts and Media Department.&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:sslawnik@colum.edu&quot;&gt;sslawnik@colum.edu&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.colum.edu/deps&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.colum.edu/deps&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

A Savannah barber, Davis spent his free time carving a diverse but unified body of highly refined sculpture that reflects his deep faith, humor, and dignity. This retrospective features 109 pieces and is organized by Susan Crawley of the High Museum of Art, Atlanta, in association with King-Tisdell Cottage Foundation of Savannah. The title comes from Davis’s explanation of why he disliked parting with his work: “They’re my treasure. If I sold these, I’d be really poor.”&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:intuit@art.org&quot;&gt;intuit@art.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.art.org&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.art.org&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;

Sacred Geometry: Art of the &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;Mandala&lt;/span&gt; &lt;span&gt;will be presented at Life Force Arts Center Gallery, 3148 N Lincoln Ave, Chicago from February 19 - March 31, 2010&lt;/span&gt;.
This art show explores contemporary artists&#039; creations of mandalas,
which artist Diogenes Lamarche defines as &amp;quot;visual compositions, usually
based in a circular pattern, that incorporate different symbolic and
geometric patterns that can lead to shifts in consciousness,
perspectives, and energy flow.&amp;quot; The exhibit includes &lt;span&gt;paintings, sculpture and mixed media and &lt;/span&gt;features a variety of approaches to the &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;mandala&lt;/span&gt;. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;span&gt;Admission is free and gallery hours are by appointment. For more information, contact 773-327-7224 or &lt;a rel=&quot;nofollow&quot; href=&quot;http://www.lifeforcearts.org//&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;&lt;span&gt;www.LifeForceArts.org&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/a&gt;. &lt;/span&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Wikipedia
says that in various spiritual traditions, mandalas may be employed for
focusing attention of aspirants and adepts, as a spiritual teaching
tool, for establishing a &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Temenos&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Temenos&quot;&gt;sacred space&lt;/a&gt;, and as an aid to &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Meditation&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Meditation&quot;&gt;meditation&lt;/a&gt; and &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Trance&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Trance&quot;&gt;trance&lt;/a&gt; induction. In common use, &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;mandala&lt;/span&gt; has become a generic term for any plan, chart or geometric pattern that represents the &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cosmos&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Cosmos&quot;&gt;cosmos&lt;/a&gt; metaphysically or symbolically, a &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Macrocosm_and_microcosm&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Macrocosm and microcosm&quot;&gt;microcosm&lt;/a&gt; of the &lt;a href=&quot;http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Universe&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot; title=&quot;Universe&quot;&gt;Universe&lt;/a&gt; from the human perspective.&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Pat Otto, one of the artists represented in Art of the &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;Mandala&lt;/span&gt;, is also an art teacher and art therapist. &lt;em&gt;&lt;span&gt;
She says, &amp;quot;My artwork comes from images and urges of psyche that
I notice and let surface. They merge with everyday life experiences,
and I bring them into form through working with physical materials,
such as wood, wax, paint and canvas. I enjoy facilitating art
experiences for others to creatively express themselves in a way that
is deeply intuitive and insightful.  I have found, in my own work and
in working with others, that using the mandala in its most basic
form, a circle with a center, creates a safe and sacred space for
expression.  As Carl Jung said, mandalas are a symbol for the Self
seeking wholeness, and are a vehicle for healing. Often, people are
found to spontaneously express images within a circle framework at
chaotic times in their lives.&amp;quot;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;/em&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
&lt;em&gt; &lt;/em&gt;
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;
Another
artist in the show, Steven Blaine Adams, says, &amp;quot;Crystals grow in sacred
geometric patterns, and their properties have been used since ancient
times for healing and magical purposes. As an energy healer myself, I
help clients through using crystals to balance their physical, mental,
emotional and spiritual energy. These properties make crystals ideal
materials for creating sacred mandalas for use in meditation, and I am
making three crystal mandalas for this show: the Green Man, the Sri
Yantra and the Celtic Cross.&amp;quot; 
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;div&gt;

Life Force Arts Center (LFAC), 3148 N Lincoln, Chicago, 
is Chicago’s  spiritual art gallery and performance space.Our mission is
creating spiritual awakening and transformation through the visual, 
literary and performing arts. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p align=&quot;left&quot;&gt;
The Center presents spiritually based dance, theater, music, performance art, authors, and visual &lt;span class=&quot;il&quot;&gt;artists&lt;/span&gt;
of all spiritual traditions. LFAC defines spiritual art as art that  
flows from spiritual practice, art that strives to connect the audience 
with Spirit, and art that creates spiritual healing, transformation, or
awakening. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;
   
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
At LFAC, we recognize 
and nurture the fact that Spirit moves through an individual to create 
in many forms of professional practice: art, teaching and healing. 
Spiritual artists often are teachers and healers as well. LFAC is a 
place where the public (audiences, students, clients, participants) can 
partake of all the modalities in which a practitioner is inspired to 
create. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;div align=&quot;center&quot;&gt;
  
&lt;/div&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
LFAC offers art exhibits, 
performances and spiritual workshops in our 1200 square foot Main Space.
Visit our Gift Shop to purchase artwork, CD;s and DVD&#039;s, jewelry, books
and other products of the artists, teachers and healers who present at 
our Center. The space is available for rental as well, and is perfect 
for workshops, meetings, parties yoga, dance, theater and other events. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Life
Force Arts Center opened in 2008, and is operated by Life Force Arts 
Foundation, which was founded in 1988 as a non-profit, tax exempt 501 
(c) 3 organization to present the   modern dance and performance work of
Joan Forest Mage. As Joan developed the deeper, spiritual aspects of 
her work as shamanic practice, the company grew to support the 
exploration of the art-spirituality connection.
&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;   &lt;/div&gt;
  &lt;/div&gt;

&lt;p&gt;
This March and April, Peter Patterson of &lt;em&gt;Patterson Glassworks&lt;/em&gt; in Mundelein, Illinois&lt;em&gt; &lt;/em&gt;is featured in the exhibition window &lt;em&gt;Waterworlds &lt;/em&gt;at the Illinois Artisans Shop, Chicago. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Patterson has worked with glass for over 25 years. He earned a BFA from the Cleveland School of Art in Cleveland, Ohio and has studied extensively at the Penland School of Craft in Penland, North Carolina. His unique use of material during the firing process has distinct visual results. The water-like depth of light is built from several surfaces of glass, color overlays, millefiori and gradually spaced bubbles. In &lt;em&gt;Waterworlds&lt;/em&gt;, Patterson uses a process he invented: incorporating phosphorus into the glass, making it glow in the dark. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&lt;em&gt;With my BFA from college majoring in illustration, I like to think of each of my pieces as an illustration. I can achieve this by pre-fusing some of my decoration or using different technique. &lt;/em&gt;
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
&lt;em&gt;The inspiration for my different series comes from a variety of things including life experiences, scuba diving, working plant knowledge, graphic design and nature itself. I put these fluid motions of the water along with organic shapes derived from nature into my glass creations.&lt;/em&gt;  -Peter Patterson
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
Peter Patterson is shown at galleries across the country and is in private collections worldwide. He is represented by the Illinois Artisans Shop, Chicago. All items on display are for sale. 
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
The Illinois Artisans Shop, a not-for-profit endeavor, is a showcase for art work created by the state&#039;s finest artisans. It provides an ongoing opportunity to view and purchase the best designed and crafted traditional, contemporary, ethnic and folk art made in Illinois. Illinois Artisans Shop, 100 W. Randolph, Ste. 2-200, 312-814-5321, Monday-Friday 9 - 5.

During the month of March, ART ON ARMITAGE: a window gallery will present Lindsay Obermeyer&#039;s A Glass Prairie, an installation that pays homage to the beauty of our natural landscape.  Fashioned from hundreds of beads and yards of wire, each wildflower is a facsimile of those native to the Midwest.  A Glass Prairie will grow over the duration of the exhibition as new flowers are added to the installation each week, filling the space with color and hope for our fragile ecosystem.
&lt;/p&gt;
&lt;p&gt;
The public is invited to an &lt;strong&gt;artist&#039;s reception &lt;span class=&quot;yshortcuts&quot;&gt;on Sunday March
7th, from 4pm&lt;/span&gt; to 6pm.&lt;/strong&gt;

A living legend...&lt;br /&gt;
March 2, 2010 thru April 9, 2010&lt;/strong&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
&lt;br /&gt;
The Nevica Project proudly presents &lt;span&gt;Warren MacKenzie - &lt;/span&gt;&lt;span&gt;&lt;em&gt;A living legend...&lt;/em&gt;&lt;/span&gt;&lt;br /&gt;
Warren MacKenzie (b. 1924) is recognized as a true master of 20th
Century ceramic art. Through his traditional wheel-thrown vessels, Mr.
MacKenzie&#039;s pottery embodies strong influences from Bernard Leach and
Shoji Hamada.  His work consistently represents the confidence of where
the potter’s hand is felt and touched through the utilitarian pots that
are produced for use in everyday life.&lt;br /&gt;
This exhibition will feature over 50 different stamped pieces created by this legendary potter.&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-email field-field-email&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;Contact Email:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;mailto:info@theNEVICAproject.com&quot;&gt;info@theNEVICAproject.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-link field-field-link&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-label-inline-first&quot;&gt;URL:&amp;nbsp;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;a href=&quot;http://www.theNEVICAproject.com&quot; target=&quot;_blank&quot;&gt;http://www.theNEVICAproject.com&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;fieldset class=&quot;fieldgroup group-presenter&quot;&gt;&lt;legend&gt;Presenter&lt;/legend&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field field-type-nodereference field-field-organization&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-items&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;field-item&quot;&gt;&lt;div class=&quot;node&quot;&gt;
