This is another "must see" event: I just saw Brett Bloom's work at the
Smart Museum in Chicago in the "Beyond Green" exhibition, and heard Brett speak briefly at Mess Hall (chicago). He is doing some incredible work within an activist framework, and is involved with the collective Temporary Services. He is a very interesting and intense guy.
This event is coordinated by Nicolas Lampert, who has graciously
opening it up to all of us. (Thanks, Nicolas!)
Date: Thursday, Nov 10
Time: 7:30
