Plus\, we’ll have magazines on hand to browse for reference imagery. \nGuest artist\, Nick Lacke\, well known for his pop-cultural references\, will lead participants through a variety of illustrative technique using pencils\, pens\, calligraphy tools and markers on Bristol board.

SUMMARY:Eternal Recurrence: New Editions from Spudnik Press Cooperative | Opening Reception & Talk
DESCRIPTION:Featured Artists: Carris Adams\, Claire Ashley\, Judith Brotman\, Elijah Burgher\, Holly Cahill\, Lilli Carre\, Dana Carter\, Tom Christison\, kg\, Jonathan Herrera\, Richard Hull\, Anita Jung\, Raeleen Kao\, Chad Kouri\, Benjamin Larose\, Judy Ledgerwood\, Faheem Majeed\, David Leggett\, Caroline Liu\, Jereon Nelemans\, Paul Nudd\, William J. O’Brien\, Roni Packer\, Steve Reinke\, Kay Rosen. Alice Tippit\, Orkideh Torabi\, Amanda Williams\, Brittney Leeanne Williams\nEternal Recurrence: New Editions from Spudnik Press Cooperative features prints by 28 artists who recently developed new print-based projects through the Spudnik Press Cooperative Residency and Publishing Programs. \nThe Spudnik Press Cooperative Residency Program provides artists unfettered studio access to produce a new body of print-based work. For the first time in 2018\, the Residency Program was open to national artists in addition to local artists. Renowned printmakers Anita Jung and Tom Christison travelled from Iowa City to be our first regional visiting artists. \nThe Spudnik Press Cooperative Publishing Program invites artists representing a variety of contemporary disciplines—ranging from painting and drawing to performance and experiential art making—to develop a fine art print in collaboration with professional printers at Spudnik Press. \nTogether\, these programs provide entry point into the unique facets of printmaking\, such as its historical and cultural roots as a social art practice and its role in contemporary art practices. \nThe phrase Eternal Recurrence is borrowed from Steve Reinke’s print entitled Eternal Recurrence of Shame from his series featuring absurd\, crude\, humorous\, and poetic aphorisms and short phrases. Reinke’s piece references a phenomenon Nietzsche calls “eternal recurrence” in a passage from The Gay Science. In the passage\, Nietzsche asserts that existence may recur in an infinite cycle as energy and matter transform over time. \nThe artists included in this exhibition maintain a wide range of studio practices and experiential art making. Eternal Recurrence reflects the continual transformation of ink and paper to reflect artists’ visions and honors the act of creation as a continuous process responsive to a particular time and place–a particular recurrence of the infinite possibilities. \nThe work in Eternal Recurrence features screenprinting\, relief\, letterpress\, intaglio\, and monoprinting techniques\, using a range of traditional and nontraditional materials and bringing together an impressive collection of artists. Each prints reflects the artist’s vision and dedication to their individual practices while showcasing the creative\, analytical and technical processes of art making. \n\nEternal Recurrence: New Editions from Spudnik Press Cooperative will be on view through May 25\, 2019 at The Annex at Spudnik Press\, 1821 W. Hubbard Street\, Suite 302\, Chicago\, IL 60622. \nGallery Hours\nTuesday – Friday\, 12 – 5 p.m.\nMonday & Thursday 6 – 10 p.m.\nSaturday 1 – 5 p.m.\nor by appointment \nImage: Cerulean Blue Series #2\, kg\, 2017

SUMMARY:2019 Chicago Print Crawl
DESCRIPTION:An annual\, self-guided tour of printmaking production\, publishing\, exhibition and sales venues throughout the City of Chicago\nOrganized by Spudnik Press Cooperative\nThe Chicago Print Crawl offers a behind-the-scenes peek into Chicago’s vibrant printmaking industry. 36 eclectic printmaking venues throughout the city are inviting the public to stop by for a day of free activities including studio tours\, print sales\, hands-on art projects\, gallery exhibitions\, and printmaking demonstrations. \nChicago has been a hub for commercial printing since the late nineteenth century with dozens of mail order catalogs (Sears Roebuck and Co.)\, magazines (Time Magazine via RR Donnelley)\, and maps (Rand McNally) all produced in the area. While the printing industry has undergone tremendous change\, the Third Coast continues to boast an impressive spectrum of print shops from private artist studios to commercial facilities to collectives and educational spaces. Some venues proudly house cast iron presses\, tradition stone lithography\, and analog processes. Other favor digital design\, modern technology\, or a blend of old and new. Connected to these distinctive production sites are a range of unique galleries\, local businesses\, and DIY spaces that bring printed items (i.e. stationary\, fine art\, books\, posters\, apparel\, and more) to an audience of print-enthusiasts\, art collectors\, and anyone interested in craftsmanship and shopping local. \nWith open houses in neighborhoods from Evanston to McKinley Park and from Oak Park to Michigan Avenue\, participants are invited to print their way through Chicago. \nAdditional details to be announced\, such as times and locations for special events like print releases\, talks\, demonstrations\, and hands-on workshops.\nParticipating Venues\n2X1Y Studio\na. favorite design\nAll Star Press*\nAnchor Graphics Archive and Chris Flynn at Columbia College Chicago*\nBaker Prints*\nBert Green Fine Art\nCandor Arts*\nChicago Printmakers Collaborative\nCrosshair*\nCurrent Location Press*\nDan Grzeca / Ground Up Press*\nDepression Press*\nDouble Trip Press*\nElephant Room Gallery*\nExpressions Graphics*\nFata Morgana Press\nFlax Art and Frame*\nfree range\nGalerie F\nHalftone Projects*\nHoofprint*\nJeffrey Hirst Studio*\nLillstreet Art Center*\nMAKE Letterpress Studio*\nMANA Contemporary Chicago*\nmarimacha monarca press*\nMatt Bodett and Megan Sterling\nNeighborly\nOne After 909*\nRenee Robbins Studio*\nRockwell Artist Collective*\nSonnenzimmer*\nSpudnik Press Cooperative\nStarshaped Press\nSteel Petal Press\nWeber Studio* \n*first-time participant

SUMMARY:Paper Trail: A Printmaking Journey In Time
DESCRIPTION:Come explore alternate futures and pasts at our drop-in artmaking event\, Paper Trail!\nEach guest will construct their own personalized zine that investigates the future\, the past\, and storytelling. One copy of the zine will be ceremonially contributed to a community time capsule; a second copy can be taken home at the end of the evening. Participants will have the opportunity to try out both screenprinting and relief block printing to customize their adventure (and get hooked on printmaking). \nThis free community event is presented by Spudnik Press Fellows\, Vidisha Aggarwal\, Atlan Arceo-Witzl\, Lisa Armstrong\, and Lya Finston. They have collaboratively designed this festive evening to welcome friends and family (with and without printmaking experience) to stop by and check out Spudnik Press\, to meet and make art with other print-curious individuals\, and to speculate on the future of print through creative prompts that bring together science fiction and artmaking. \nAges 16+ are welcome. Guests are encouraged\, but not required\, to stay for the whole event.

SUMMARY:Noah Breuer:  CB&S Werkstätte | Opening Reception & Artist Demonstration
DESCRIPTION:Please join us for as the artist lets us experience first-hand his process in pattern formation followed by an artist reception for CB&S Werkstätte featuring the work of Noah Breuer. \nIn his first Chicago solo exhibition\, Noah Breuer presents prints and fabric wall hangings from his ongoing project that examines the visual legacy of “Carl Breuer and Sons” (CB&S)\, his Jewish family’s former textile printing business in Bohemia. The exhibition’s title\, CB&S Werkstätte is a nod to the now-defunct family business that began in 1897 and was forcibly sold to Nazi-approved owners in 1942. Breuer acquired a rich digital collection of original CB&S designs and fabric samples during a 2016 research trip to the Czech Textile Museum and has used these images as the primary source material for his current work.  The exhibition features recent laser-engraved woodblock prints\, large cyanotypes on cotton and an accompanying risograph-printed artist book published by Spudnik Press.    \nIn conjunction with the opening\, Breuer will facilitate a demonstration that will allow exhibition attendees to use the laser-engraved surfaces of custom-built table-tops to make wax rubbings. Attendees may collaborate with the artist and produce new artworks inspired by the CB&S factory designs.  The table-tops will be displayed and made available for use through the duration of the exhibition.  \nNoah Breuer:  CB&S Werkstätte will be on view through July 27\, 2019 in The Annex at Spudnik Press\, 1821 W. Hubbard Street\, Suite 302\, Chicago\, IL 60622. \nGallery Hours\nTuesday – Friday\, 12 – 5 p.m.\nMonday & Thursday 6 – 10 p.m.\nSaturday 1 – 5 p.m.\nOr by appointment. \nNoah Breuer\, laser-engraved surfaces mounted on custom-built table-tops.

SUMMARY:A Conversation on Propaganda & Printed Matter
DESCRIPTION:Panel Discussing with Andrea Carlson\, Robert Cozzolino\, and Chris Pappan\nThroughout history artists have made images that affirm and challenge political beliefs. Printmaking has both been a vehicle for disseminating popular agendas and resisting dominant culture. Join Andrea Carlson (Resident Artist)\, Robert Cozzolino (Minneapolis Institute of Arts\, Curator of Painting) and Chris Pappan (Artist) for a discussion on various histories of propaganda and printed matter. \nThis event is presented in conjunction with Andrea Carlson’s Summer 2019 Residency. New prints produced through the Spudnik Press Residency Program will be on view and released at this free public event.  \nAbout the panelists:\nAndrea Carlson is a visual artist currently living in Chicago\, Illinois. Through painting and drawing\, Carlson cites entangled cultural narratives and institutional authority relating to objects based on the merit of possession and display. Her work has been acquired by institutions such as the British Museum\, the Minneapolis Institute of Art\, and the National Gallery of Canada. Carlson was a 2008 McKnight Fellow and a 2017 Joan Mitchell Foundation Painters and Sculptors grant recipient. \nRobert Cozzolino was born\, raised\, and studied in the Midwest. A native of Chicago\, he earned his Ph.D from the University of Wisconsin-Madison with a dissertation on Ivan Albright. In his work on American art he has emphasized regional diversity\, integrating artists of Chicago\, Wisconsin\, California\, and other areas into installations\, thematic exhibitions and his scholarship. Dr. Cozzolino is currently the Patrick and Aimee Butler Curator of Paintings at the Minneapolis Institute of Arts. Prior to his current appointment\, Dr. Cozzolino was the Senior Curator and Evelyn and Will Kaplan Curator of Modern Art at the Pennsylvania Academy of the Fine Arts\, Philadelphia (PAFA). \nChris Pappan is a Chicago-based artist of Kaw\, Osage\, and Cheyenne River Sioux heritage. His artwork is based on American Indian ledger drawings of the mid to late 19th Century\, and through use of evocative imagery and mixed media\, his work has an undeniable 21st Century twist. In 2015 he presented Account Past Due: Ledger Art & Beyond at the Museum of Contemporary Native Arts. In 2016-19 the Field Museum of Natural History organized a show of his drawings and paintings called Drawing on Tradition: Kanza Artist Chris Pappan. His work is part of the permanent collections of the Spencer Museum of Art and the Museum of Contemporary Native Art. \nImage: Detail of work in progress by Andrea Carlson

SUMMARY:A Conversation with Spudnik Press Resident Artist João Oliveira and Jessica Cochran
DESCRIPTION:Join us for an evening of informal conversation with resident artist João Oliveira and writer and curator Jessica Cochran\, as they discuss João’s residency project and his participation in the international artist exchange program Close to There < > Perto de Lá. \n“Little amusements: i’m going to love you\, hold you\, squeeze you\, until you’re in tiny pieces is the result of the impression of plastic animals bodies\, torn apart by the same method that I used as a child (and experimental medical coroner). after being misplaced and shredded\, these animals undergo a heating process\, developed by me to turn them into two-dimensional matrices that I print with the same procedures traditionally used on engraving\, resulting in a kind of graphic stain; a unique mark of violence that links the author to his act.” \n–João Oliveira\, 2019 \nJoão Oliveira is a visual artist with a BA in Visual Arts from the Universidade Federal da Bahia (2011)\, and a Master’s in Creative Process in Visual Arts from the same university (2017). He is trained in lithography and metal engraving through the Workshops at the Museum of Modern Art of Bahia (MAM-BA). He works on the encounter of metal engraving with other supports\, appropriating personal experience in order to create works with a forged autobiographical nature\, obtained through small rituals of self-fiction. \nNamed a “curator to watch” by Chicago Magazine in 2013\, Jessica Cochran has curated exhibitions for numerous venues and groups\, including the Contemporary Arts Council\, School of the Art Institute of Chicago\, The Franklin\, What it Is\, the MDW art fair and Center for Book Arts in New York. For over seven years\, I was a curator in academic galleries at Columbia College Chicago and Dominican University; in 2014 she was a participating fellow at the Association of Academic Museums and Galleries Leadership Institute at Northwestern University.

By bringing members of these two artistic communities in proximity with one another\, this project aims to gestate long-term artistic collaborations between the participants\, share arts-organizing models from their respective socio-political-artistic contexts\, and encourage creative discourse around ideas such as the African Diaspora and contemporary Latinx/Latin American identities. \nThe exchange will begin with a multi-disciplinary group of Salvador-based artists visiting Chicago August 9th – 29th 2019\, carrying out a variety of programs\, performances\, and research through Comfort Station and its partner spaces across the city. In February of 2020\, a group of Chicago-based artists will in turn visit Salvador to engage with the city’s creative landscape via Projeto Ativa’s network of artists and cultural institutions. \nImage: Coma meu coração sem pena\, enquanto é tempo\, João Oliveira\, 2012.

SUMMARY:Tessellate
DESCRIPTION:Spudnik Press Cooperative Fellows Ally Hembree\, Hope Wang\, Sean Mac\, and Zakia Rowlett are pleased to present Tessellate\, a night of collective artmaking and installation-building with the Chicago community. Hybridizing the fellows’ individual artistic practices\, Tessellate invites guests to experience a variety of print-based techniques considering collage as a tool for creating narratives. Through screenprinting\, paper embossing\, risography\, and relief printing\, guests will construct their own prints into never-ending books as part of a collaborative viewing library at the Spudnik Press studio. Printmaking experience is not required and all materials will be provided. \nThis event is free and open to the public as part of the Hubbard Street Lofts Open House. The installation will be on view until Nov 10\, 2019. \n— \nAlly Hembree is a printmaker focused in screen printing\, relief\, and polyester plate lithography. She has a B.A. in Studio Art with a minor in Communication Studies from the University of Puget Sound. The subject matter of Ally’s work is heavily influenced by the environment in which she creates. While at the University of Puget Sound\, she connected her critical interest in film media with her printmaking. Her senior thesis\, Moments\, inspired by the unforgiving Pacific Ocean\, was an installation of 40+ polyester plate lithographs. Likewise the screenprints incorporated in Tessellate are influenced by the sometimes equally unforgiving Chicago cityscape. \nHope Wang is a Chicago-based artist and educator working in painting\, screenprinting\, photography\, and weaving to create meticulous reproductions of primarily industrial and commercial facades. Drawing from architectural elements as symbols for how people negotiate belonging and agency in public spaces\, her work questions an initial understanding of material and perception. She received her BFA from The School of the Art Institute of Chicago and has shown in exhibitions including Chicago Textile Week\, Ignition Project Space\, FRIEND\, Chicago Art Department\, Gallery No One\, and Sullivan Galleries. She has also instructed workshops at The Weaving Mill\, Loom Chicago\, and Magical Minds Studio. \nSean Mac is a Chicago-based illustrator\, cartoonist\, and muralist. He uses comic books and zines as a platform for storytelling and narrative. He enjoys writing humorous stories and drawing colorful characters. In addition to self publishing his comics his work includes screenprinting and public art. He graduated with a BFA in Illustration from Columbia College Chicago. \nZakia Rowlett is an experimental Graphic Designer\, currently based in Chicago\, IL. She spent four years at the Illinois Institute of Chicago\, earning her BFA in Graphic Design. Through the use of typography\, layering texture\, expression of color\, and challenging traditional compositions she practices interdisciplinary digital and print media. Referencing multiple forms of communication from signage\, human interaction\, or recurring events as a way of demonstrating all things open to your own interpretation. \nTessellate is an opportunity to get an inside look into each of the fellows’ practices and also learn new techniques they can take home and apply in the future. We hope they can have fun with collage and story building while engaging with other guests’ pieces through the interactive installation. Fellows will also have affordable work for sale!

SUMMARY:Domestic Tides / Indigenous Mind | Opening Reception & Artist Talk
DESCRIPTION:Opening Reception: 6:00 – 9:00 p.m.\nBrief Artist Talk: 6:15 p.m.\nDomestic Tides / Indigenous Mind explores a move from the prairies of North Dakota to the urban environment of Chicago. The exhibition considers Jessica Christy‘s transplanted indigenous identity\, one connected to place\, in the midst of a culture shock. While exploring a new city\, both foreign and known images were gathered: deer hair\, parking signs\, coyote tracks\, municipal tickets\, bird feathers\, and corner store signs. Through self-applied cultural guilt and gender expectations\, visuals emerge that suggest the artist’s voice is becoming comfortable in the 21st century metropolis. \nAs traditional printmaking moves from a commercial process to fine art editions to a contemporary medium\, artists are continually exploring new matrices and substrates and their conceptual implications. The work in Domestic Tides / Indigenous Mind stems from a fascination with this contemporary shift. Images are transferred through print onto surfaces found and gathered in Chicago. The artist’s cultural and personal transition from the Great Plains to an urban Chicago environment is represented on found wood\, fabric\, and other surfaces through text and imagery gathered in a daily journal. Domestic Tides / Indigenous Mind employs these new substrates to intimately speak to the artist’s experiences of cultural disconnect\, domestic struggles\, and a general liaison with her new environment. \n\nDomestic Tides / Indigenous Mind will be on view November 15\, 2019 through January 18\, 2020 at Spudnik Press\, 1821 W. Hubbard Street\, Suite 302\, Chicago\, IL 60622.\nGallery Hours\nTuesday – Friday: 12 – 5 p.m.\nMonday & Thursday:  6 – 10 p.m.\nSaturday: 1 – 5 p.m.\nOr by appointment \nDomestic Tides / Indigenous Mind was selected by the Spudnik Press Member Exhibitions Committee. \nImage: Jessica Christy\, Untitled (chic)\, 2019

At each press\, our guests can try their hand at operating the press and pulling a print. Spudnik members will be on call to share projects and their favorite printmaking processes. Open bar and sweet and savory treats will ensure that everyone feels great while making art. \n(Printing can be inky\, but we’ll be sure to provide aprons and keep things pretty spiffy. Casual and business attire are both appropriate.) \nThis is a private event for our Giving Circle (Donors who supported us at the $250+ level). Want to join us? Make a Tax-Deductible Donation

SUMMARY:Accessibility in the Studio: An Evening with Resident Artist Benjamin Merritt
DESCRIPTION:Meet Benjamin Merritt\, Resident Artist from Minneapolis\, MN\, for a conversation addressing disability in the arts\, his own artistic practice\, and considerations and strategies to make studio arts like printmaking more accessible for people of all abilities. Printmakers\, teachers\, and those working in academic settings are all encouraged to learn about and discuss what accessibility means and some challenges and solutions to creating accessible classrooms and studios. \nPart artist talk and part participatory conversation\, Benjamin will lead a group conversation addressing how to make arts and academic spaces more accessible. He will share various sensory and adaptive modifications of printmaking tools and projects for the benefit of everyone involved in the arts\, including people with various disabilities.  \nAs an artist and writer\, Benjamin Merritt challenges the normative idea that the body is something individual\, unchanging\, and fully knowable by objective means. His prints and drawings combine imagery and text from his medical records and personal writings\, exploring his own experience with chronic illness as well as how patient’s bodies are written about and recorded. His work asks us to rethink the medicalized constructs we apply to the body\, and suggests alternatives that are more beneficial to and understanding of bodies that don’t fit these norms. \n \nImage: from Constant\, Immediate\, Benjamin Merritt\, Etching\, monoprint\, 2019-2020

SUMMARY:Queer Materialisms: Andrew Bearnot in dialogue with Dutes Miller and Betsy Odom
DESCRIPTION:This event has been postponed for COVID-19 closures. We look forward to announcing a new date in the future.\nResident Artist Andrew Bearnot is a self-described “materialist” who thinks with and through the substance of things. Bearnot’s artistic practice centralizes theories of calibration and explores the intersection of science\, ritual\, and queer phenomenology. Bearnot will share new experiments in print media developed during the residency at Spudnik Press and will be joined by artists Dutes Miller and Betsy Odom for a conversation exploring intersections between their respective research and practice.

SUMMARY:Drink & Draw: Exquisite Animations | April 2020
DESCRIPTION:Enter the fourth dimension at our animation themed Drink & Draw this April. Inspired by the surrealist exquisite corpse parlor game in which a collection of words and images are assembled by a group of people\, we will create a collaborative animation centered on the theme of time. \nGuest Artist\, Lisa Armstrong\, will share how the element of time can turn simple drawings into playful juxtaposition\, abstract stories\, and unexpected visual delights. Drawn animation frames can take the form of comics\, storyboards\, patterns\, color fields\, photo collage\, or type-based images. The evening will culminate with everyone photographing their frames to create and a collaborative stop-motion animation. Popcorn will be ready for the big debut screening! \nScheduling Note: April Fool’s! This Drink & Draw is April 8 (2nd Wednesday)! On the first Wednesday of the month\, we recommend you head to Art on theMART\, the largest permanent digital art projection in the world\, projecting contemporary artwork across the 2.5 acre facade of the historic Merchandise Mart\, to get inspired by the debut of Lisa’s animation made in collaboration with the Arts of Life. \n\nLisa Armstrong is a multi-disciplinary designer\, artist\, and educator. Her research focuses primarily on the study of empathic design\, time-based media\, and tensions between artificial and emotional intelligence. As a designer\, she mainly works with clients in the non-profit\, arts\, and cultural sectors. \nDrink & Draw is a low-key drop-in social workshop devoted to drawing practices. There are no pretensions\, no prerequisites\, and newcomers are always welcome. Bring a sketchbook and basic drawing materials\, and invite your friends!

SUMMARY:Drink & Draw [VIRTUAL]: Points of Contact - Celebrating the Tactile
DESCRIPTION:Guest Artist: Ally Hembree\nRemember when it wasn’t taboo to high five or hug? What social interaction do you miss the most? Our first ever online Drink & Draw will be led by guest artist\, Ally Hembree\, who will guide us through how to use shapes\, patterns\, and a limited color palette to illustrate our answers to these questions\, and rejuvenate special objects within our home.  \nEmbellish a household object\, upcycle a glass bottle\, or follow Ally’s lead by painting a terracotta pot! Don’t have an object on hand? Scavenge your neighborhood for a nice stone to make the feature of your rock garden. Using acrylic paints (or whatever you have on hand)\, make your object all the more alluring while lamenting our social interactions during the stay at home order and celebrating relationships from a distance. \nThroughout the stay-at-home order\, Hembree has dove into decorating terracotta pots as a way to explore a new creative practice centered on painting and drawing. While right now the ultimate expression of care is distance\, Hembree has enjoyed designing pots to celebrate the importance of embrace and look toward a “post-quar” future.  \nZoom Meeting ID: 971-6155-4213\nSuggested Materials:  \n\nFound Object(s) (terracotta pots recommended)\nRegular pencil \nAny paper \nAcrylic Paints (hardware stores have cheap samples) \nPaint Brushes\, variety of sizes\nWater to rinse brushes\n\n\nDrink & Draw [Virtual] is a low-key drop-in social workshop devoted to staying creative from home. There are no pretensions and newcomers are always welcome\, so invite your friends to join! Each Drink & Draw [Virtual] features a new guest artist and a new theme or project that uses pencil\, paper\, and everyday household supplies. Don’t have a sketchbook? Hosts will help you improvise. Events are currently scheduled each Wednesday through May 6. Find us on Zoom\, a free app for your phone or computer. And of course: BYOB!  \nLove the experience? Pitch in to our Venmo Tip Jar (@spudnikpress) to directly support the featured artist and Spudnik Press Cooperative.

SUMMARY:Drink & Draw [VIRTUAL]: Typetones – Talking With Type
DESCRIPTION:Join Zakia Rowlett to explore how handlettering can be used to give a tone to text\, add personality to communications\, bring depth to the meaning of words\, and harmonize form with function.  \nWorking with a single word you’ll develop your own typeface for it\, using elements of graphic design to impact how someone will respond to reading it.  You’ll explore how these methods are applied to commercial branding and logo design\, and how you can apply them to your own creative projects. \nZakia Rowlett is an artist and designer specializing in logo\, branding\, book design\, and posters. She will guide us through her analog hand lettering process\, from the sketching and ideation phase through to refining the final letterforms.
