Dumpster Love / My Dinner with Ronnie

(stories of art, life and garbage dumpsters)BYOB
paintings and stories by Ron Bieganski

"The centerpiece of your dinner experience is Ron Bieganski, accomplished in both the worlds of painting and theater arts. In this performance, called "My Dinner with Ronnie," you're invited into Bieganski's world of triumph and loss, a world that is always tied to his art, which is currently on display at the restaurant."
Logansquarist, By Theresa Boehl in Arts on March 11, 2013

Ron Bieganski, co-director of the NeuroKitchen Arts Collective/ head designer for studioWORKSbieganski has extended his combination art exhibition and storytelling Dinner at the Wasabi restaurant at 2539 north Milwaukee ave. Chicago, in Logan Square.

Share an intimate dining and performance experience. You are up close to the artist as he unwinds stories surrounded by his expressive paintings. Ron's paintings are organic multi-media works that have a working process that starts by jumping into large industrial dumpsters, clearing away debris to see the walls and taking pictures.

"Dumpster Love/My Dinner with Ronnie" Wednesdays 6:30pm Feb. 20- May 8. Diners may be seated between 6pm-6:30-and stories will begin at 6:30pm. In the last two years Ron has experienced great highs and lows while starting over as a 53 year old man. He has put his beautifully discombobulated thoughts into multi-media paintings and stories of art, life, youth education and garbage dumpsters.

Ron worked as Artistic Director of Free Street Theater for 20 years creating shows with youth that garnered rave reviews and toured to over 60 theater festivals in Europe, Thailand, and the USA. Two of Ron's works were produced at Steppenwolf theater and made many best of year lists.

Jan. 2013 Ron's fine arts and design workshop Studioworksbieganski won a "Best of the Year 2012" award from Houzz (www.Houzz.com), the largest collection of interior design and decorating ideas on the internet.
