“Personal Item, Carry-on, Checked bag” features the work of Autumn Clark, Cindy Bernhard, Edward Cabral, David Heo, Boyang Hou, Boris Ostrerov, and Adrian Wong. The show was curated around the constraints of baggage policy. This is cheeky nod towards conceptual art, by finding creative potential in a set of regulations/ limitations. It is also emblematic of Chicago’s pragmatism, as its artist-run spaces employ resourceful and unconventional methods in order to exhibit. The cost of participating in art-fairs and the international “art-world” in general, makes it difficult for unestablished artists to participate. This show is a creative attempt around this problem, and Baby Blue Gallery thanks El Quinto Piso and Plomo Gallery for this exchange. (Exhibition was staged in Mexico City)
