CRISIS IMAGE ARCHIVES

[image:
P1010153]<http://artinthesetimes.files.wordpress.com/2013/04/p10101531.jpg>In
2012 a team of artists and visual culture researchers sought out to
document all of the visual representations of “the crisis” appearing in the
last 5 years of the 300 magazines and journals archived in the Alternative
Press Center in Chicago. Totalling 750 images, these illustrations and
photographs compose a record of the collective visual imagination of the
international political and cultural left. Frequently used graphic tropes
portraying bankers, fat cats, Keynes, Marx, Obama and protesters are found
alongside more surprising depictions of agony, desperation, and holistic
futures. An exhibition of this project in photographs and binder archives
will be on view at Art In These Times until September. Join us at an
opening reception on June 30th, 2013 from 5-8pm. Brian Holmes will provide
commentary at the opening. Two gatherings where further responses to the
archive will be encouraged will be a poetry workshop is tentatively
scheduled for July 14th and a design charrette on August 24th. RSVP on
Facebook <https://www.facebook.com/events/456653161078112/> or contact
