Press, The Artists Run Chicago Digest documents Chicago artist-run
'spaces' active between 1999 and 2009 offering a look at the
various platforms that often act as extensions to studio
practice.

that
featured 34 artist-run spaces from around the city from May 10-July
5, 2009 at the Hyde Park Art Center, The A.R.C. Digest acts as
compliment to and extension of the exhibition, with interviews,
essays, and an audio supplement presenting a 10-year time period in
Chicago’s artist-run culture while providing history, reflection,
critique and dialog about artist-run culture, its importance,
difficulties, sustainability and necessity as well as its
