Chicago Artists Month and BEYOND....postings

Artist Wesley Kimler, aka "The Shark," in conjunction with the other members of the Sharkpack, will begin presenting art exhibitions and events on a semi-regular basis within his vast studio space, which will also soon have a radical expansion. Thus it is now officially designated THE SHARKPIT.The first event is an "apero and Vernissage" (to use European words), that is an opening and display of smaller works by the EuroShark Mark Staff Brandl on THURSDAY OCTOBER 16 from 7:30 pm on (see below or here), presented as an addendum to his Krannert Art Museum installation. A preview of Kimler's huge recent paintings will also be visible. Infollowing months a complete exhibition of these works will occur. Stay tuned!Mark_staff_brandl_brandl_carriedawa

International artist Mark Staff  Brandl, a Chicago  native now living in Zurich, will be showing in Chicago and, downstate, at the University of Illinois. These are great opportunities to see his work inspired by   many ideas including comic books!
