Intimate and Epic, Small Acts for the City (2006)

From 11a.m. - 5p.m. seven project-based performances take place simultaneously at the Lurie Garden. Illinois-based performance and movement artists collaborate with visual artists to create performances that engage the Lurie Garden's sculpturally dynamic design, the intimacy of its interior spaces, its social and public function, and the spectacular backdrop of the Chicago skyline.

Curators: Mark Jeffery, faculty at School of the Art Institute of Chicago and member of Goat Island performance group; Sara Schnadt, performance artist and Webmaster for Chicago Artists Resource (a project of the Chicago Department of Cultural Affairs).
