The TRADESHOW
Chicago Arts District Special Exhibitions Gallery
Chicago, IL
ULTIMATE MARKDOWN! DISCOUNTED LIKE NEVER BEFORE!
Visit our warehouse. A literal maze of consumer delights built by unseen hands. Experience the powerful force of invisible labor and unheard voices. Watch the unraveling and reconstruction of multiple stories.
What is gained and what is lost in this cyclical exchange?
Stay and browse a while.
Bring something to swap. What will you end up wearing?
Juxtaposing, movement, text, video portraits and 500 lbs of used clothing,
THE TRADESHOW is an installation and durational performance experiment inviting Chicagoans to investigate the invisible forms of human suffering upon which our economies rest.
Is it a party? Is it a factory? Will you step back or join the forces that be?
With humor and honesty, Mott and Murthy transform a gallery into a space of production, participation, storytelling and discovery. They invite their audience to participate through action, thought, dialogue and telling their own stories.
Note: Ample street parking available.
Your ticket price supports The TRADESHOW, TAMMS Year Ten Campaign and the International Rescue Committee. Even a portion of your service fee to Brown Paper Tickets will go to support a charity of your choosing!
