Chic-a-go




Couple of days and my two weeks in Chicago are up. 

The Iza Genzken at MCA and Christopher Wool at the Art Institute were everything I could have hoped for; I loved seeing Ed Atkins' full Even Pricks film at the Renaissance Society (in my eyes he does no wrong); William Pope L's Diversity Talk at the MCA dressed as a rat alongside a cow and rooster was rather amazing (despite the odd moment when we were all asked to sing America America which reminded me of the weird patriotic nationalist weirdness of growing up here) and I had a full on heart break in front of a purple Monet and sludgy Rothko.
