Chicago Artists Coalition Art Open and Prompt!

Prompt_oct_2008_27 Besides the other events during Chicago Artists Month, the CAC has launched a new magazine called Prompt!

Olga Stefan, executive director of the Chicago Artists Coalition, Prompt editor, Jeremy  Biles and the rest of the staff did a great job addressing some issues on the minds of Chicago and other artists. You can get a free copy when you attend the Art Open at the Merchadise Mart until October 19. I am in an article in the Translations section called "Defining the Black Artist Today" by Dawoud Bey and Patric McCoy.

I am in the Art Open, too. My piece represents the South Side Community Art Center and is on this page.
