Insist that to look death in the face\, ritually and rep eatedly\, is how one kisses life on the lips. This is magic understood pla inly: not sleight of hand\, but the discipline of transformation\, and rel igion in its most degraded form. \nThe sacred\, in this view\, is not piet y but rupture: sacrifice\, ecstasy\, laughter\, daemonic entities\, and th e corpse. Death here is not simply a subject but a method. Art becomes the site where the restricted economy of production and survival is deliberat ely breached\, where a sovereign act of wasting oneself – bleeding\, pra ying\, dancing\, carving toward no useful end – recovers a continuity be tween beings that ordinary\, bounded selfhood forecloses. The works gather ed here stage exactly this breach: each refuses the discreteness the self is supposed to maintain\, offering itself instead as a willful expenditure \, a controlled burn of the prairie’s boundary – on the border where t he living meet the dead. \nBeneath that scorched wound runs a river. Death is not an event waiting at the end of a life but a force already coursing through it. A pure differentiation\, the self already a multiplicity bein g continuously undone and reassembled beneath its own name. This current t reats the human not as a form to be preserved but as a threshold to be lau ghed at\, dissolved\, desire and death fused into a single accelerant burn ing through identity toward what is on the other side. This exhibition’s icons are not meditations on mortality\, they are remnants of mortality ’s discharge\, operations and apparatuses built by hand\, and by body\, to run the current of death through the self on purpose – not to master it\, but to see\, however briefly\, who or what rears its head from beneat h the surface. \n  \nOpening reception:\nAugust 7\, 2026\n5-8pm \n  \nCX W hours with the guest curator:\nSeptember 17\, 2026\n5:00 – 8:00 pm \nT his exhibition runs through September 25\, 2026. \n******Guest curated by Ryan M.

They’ll work with upcycled clothing and fabrics\, pre-loved crockery\, beads\, buttons\, ribbons\, and more. Then\, they’ll transform these un expected materials into artworks and keepsakes they’re proud of. \nTo be gin\, every session includes a friendly\, guided lesson. That way\, no one ever feels stuck. After that\, there’s plenty of room to experiment\, m ake choices\, and follow their imagination. There’s no single “right ” way to create – and that’s the whole point. \nMost importantly\, o ur club is relaxed and encouraging. Mess is welcome\, and every idea is wo rth exploring. Along the way\, children build real confidence. They learn not only how to make things\, but also how to trust their own creativity. \nAs a result\, they begin to see the world a little differently. Suddenly \, an everyday object can be full of possibility. Something old or forgott en can become something beautiful and new. \nIt’s creative\, hands-on\, and a little bit magical. At the same time\, it introduces big ideas about imagination\, resourcefulness\, and caring for our planet. By giving old things new life\, children discover just how much can be created from what we already have. \nEach week\, your child will leave with something they made themselves. Even better\, they’ll leave with a growing belief that they are an artist. \nNo experience needed. No pressure to be “good.” Just bring curiosity – we’ll supply the rest. \nAges 7 – 13 LAST-MODIFIED:20260909T190600Z LOCATION:Gorton Center\, 400 East Illinois Road\, Lake Forest\, IL\, 60045 URL:https://gortoncenter.org/event/everything-can-be-art-with-vee-gunn-sep tember/?utm_source=caldiscovery&utm_medium=ics&utm_campaign=chicago-il X-SOURCE-NAME:Gorton Center X-SOURCE-URL:https://gortoncenter.org END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:Teen Craft Cafe • Actividad de Manualidades para Adolescentes DTSTART:20260917T220000Z DTEND:20260918T000000Z DTSTAMP:20260915T055739Z UID:30299-1789664400-1789671600@highwoodlibrary.org CATEGORIES:arts,family DESCRIPTION:Join the Young Adult (YA) team in the Makerspace. \nWe get cre ative with hands-on art activities this August! \nPerfect for young artist s and makers of all skill levels! \nNo prior art experience needed\; just bring your creativity and get ready to have fun with bold colors and big i deas! \n\nSeptember 5th: Recycled Puzzle Craft\nSeptember 12th: Mini Room Dioramas\nSeptember 17th: Peruvian Inspired Friendship Bracelets\n\n• • • \n¡Acompañe al equipo de Adolescentes en el Makerspace! \nEste A gosto\, vamos a ponernos creativos con actividades artísticas prácticas. \nPerfecto para adolescentes artistas y creadores de todos los niveles. ¡No necesita experiencia previa en arte! \nSolo traiga su creatividad y p repárese para divertirse con colores llamativos y grandes ideas. \n\n5 de septiembre: Manualidades con rompecabezas reciclados\n12 de septiembre: M ini Habitaciones en 3D\n17 de septiembre: Pulseras de la Amistad de Inspir ación Peruana LAST-MODIFIED:20260915T055739Z LOCATION:Highwood Library & Community Center\, 102 Highwood Avenue\, Highw ood\, IL\, 60040\, United States URL:https://highwoodlibrary.org/events/teen-craft-cafe-actividad-de-manual idades-para-adolescentes-41/2026-09-17?utm_source=caldiscovery&utm_medium= ics&utm_campaign=chicago-il X-SOURCE-NAME:Highwood Library X-SOURCE-URL:https://highwoodlibrary.org END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT SUMMARY:VOICES: Dakota Mace DTSTART:20260917T223000Z DTEND:20260917T233000Z DTSTAMP:20260731T181437Z UID:14863@live.today.uic.edu CATEGORIES:arts DESCRIPTION:In partnership with the Center for Native Futures and the UIC Native American Support Program.\n\nExpanding on storytelling’s importan ce in Diné (Navajo) cosmology and philosophy\, Dakota Mace’s practice a cross photography\, weaving\, beadwork and installation contends with how land is a carrier of memory.

Milwa ukee Avenue\, in Chicago’s vibrant West Town neighborhood on Wednesday\, June 17\, 2026. An opening reception is free and open to the public on We dnesday\, June 17\, from 6-8 pm. Cutting and Pasting a World will remain o n view through January 31\, 2027. \nDrawing on research by guest curator\, art historian and College of Charleston Associate Professor Dr. Mary Tren t\, Cutting and Pasting a World illustrates how the turn-of-the-century pr actices of making paper dolls and paper dollhouse scrapbooks may have infl uenced Darger’s evolution as an artist and maker.  By showcasing both f inished artworks and original source materials\, the exhibition demonstrat es how Darger adapted these humble pastimes into sophisticated methods for constructing large-scale\, mixed-media narratives. \n“This exhibition r eestablishes Darger’s works to their original form and concept\, not as framed fine art objects\, but as double-sided pages in bound books\, roote d in paper doll and scrapbooking crafts. By returning them to their source in domestic practices of women and children\, we can finally read them as what they always were: a pointed critique of American family ideals\,” said Trent. \nThe exhibition provides context for these crafts within the early 20th-century movement to instill middle-class American “taste” i n a burgeoning immigrant population. Likely exposed to these practices wit hin social welfare institutions as a child\, Darger ultimately subverted t hem—transforming decorative domestic crafts into a profound and complex commentary on the vulnerabilities of marginalized children. \n“Intuit co ntinues to break new ground\, providing audiences with fresh insights into the influences on and processes involved in Henry Darger’s artmaking\, ” said Intuit Art Museum President Debra Kerr. “The mysteries surround ing Darger and his art continue to engage and inspire fans of self-taught art from around the world.” \nCutting and Pasting a World will be showca sed as a special exhibition within Intuit’s signature Duchossois Family Henry Darger Exhibition Gallery\, which celebrates the legacy of the noted Chicago artist over two floors. This exhibition serves as a companion to the permanent (and popular) Henry Darger Room on the Museum’s lower leve l\, a recreation of Darger’s apartment at 851 Webster Avenue in Lincoln Park\, which doubled as his home and studio for more than 40 years. \nRela ted exhibition programming \nOn Thursday\, Oct. 15\, 2026\, as part of In tuit’s monthly open-late program\, Art After Work\, Intuit will host a t alk with Mary Trent\, curator of Cutting and Pasting a World. Trent will d iscuss the exhibition and share insights from the research that shaped its development. From September through the remainder of the exhibition\, Int uit’s Center for Learning and Engagement will feature a large-scale inte ractive installation inspired by paper doll house traditions highlighted i n the exhibition. Designed by Intuit educators\, the participatory install ation will invite visitors to contribute their own creative elements\, fos tering engagement with the exhibition’s themes through collaborative mak ing and imaginative play. \nHandwork: Celebrating American Craft 2026\, a nationwide Semiquincentennial initiative to showcase the importance of th e handmade both throughout our history and in contemporary life\, is prese nted by Craft in America\, the Peabody Award-winning and Emmy-nominated do cumentary series.
