Apparently everything’s happening this weekend. The following list is in no way a complete view, just some of the shows I’m planning to catch; for everything else, check out here and here.
Nicholas Knight @ 65Grand
Photographer Nicholas Knight is show as art some photos taken of photos being taken of art, throwing in enough appreciated recursion to let me write a confusing description. Parse it out at the opening this Friday, January 14th from 7-10PM @ 65Grand, 1369 W Grand Ave.
Nicholas Knight, Taking Pictures
Heads on Poles @ Western Exhibitions
For their collaborative curatorial joint at Western Exhibitions, artists Paul Nudd and Scott Wolniak invited dozens of artists (myself included!) to create freestanding sculptures themed after the title of this show, Heads on Poles. The preview photos are already making me shrink at how good everyone’s work looks, so come stop by and see the whole crowd this Friday, January 14th from 5-8PM @ Western Exhibitions, 119 N Peoria St, 2A. Also in the second space, new works from Terrance Hannum.

Come and see what Fonda’s been up to this Friday, January 14th from 6-9PM @ Ebersmoore Gallery, 213 N Morgan St, 3C.

Remake @ Eel Space
Speaking of new spaces, Humboldt Park’s Eel Space has skipped down to Pilsen, and opens their new space this weekend with some childhood reflections and revisions from artists Claire Arctander, J.
