Our artist will be using whatever media they prefer. Picking an
artist, musician, or author (living or dead ) that was an influence in
some way, just to Zombify them. Some of those picks include Preston
Blair, Franz Kafka, Oasis, and even Jim Henson. The Chicago Art
Department (CAD) cultivates new and emerging Chicago artists. Through
education, exhibition, artist residencies, and community building,
dedicated to supporting new voices, and ideas. My hope is this
common theme will show how a range of different artist can come
together in one show. And also give a chance to those new artist, who
may have never been in an exhibit says Kerry Flaherty. Night of
the Living Artist, will have Fine art, Illustrations, and even Plush
Sculptors presented in a fun atmosphere.
