AnySquared’s “Because Art” exhibit presents work that reveals the discourse between the art and the artist. Through installation, painting, drawing, photography, video, sculpture and mixed media, the exhibit explores approaches and techniques of art practice and how it is shaped through the process of self-identification.
The “Because Art” exhibit is a core part of AnySquared’s Residency at the Hairpin Arts Center running through mid-November. The exhibit is also in conjunction with the rollout of AnySquared’s online publication Because Art.

The work of Tararchy, Nathan Becka, and Jessica DeCoudres comes together to forge a “Disrupted Domestic Dream.” Using appropriated imagery and repurposed materials – some with pallets void of color, and some with vibrancy – all artists incite a dark deja vu. A blocked memory. A hazy recollection. A blacked out chunk of time. The feeling is very familiar, but something important is missing. Insert your consciousness into the absurd stream during the opening celebration on September 7. Make sense. Make merry. Make memories.
Reception followed by new Cole’s Chicago Cabaret.
Exhibit on display through November.
