Sympathy for the Devil @ MCA Chicago, 9.29.07
As far as I'm concerned, this is THE show to see this fall; a perfect storm of music, art, and politics with the likes of Tony Oursler, Richard Prince and Jack PIerson, together with (incli)NATION favorites like Marnie Weber, Dave Muller and Jason Rhoades, not to mention references to Warhol, Lou Reed, Destroy all Monsters, Red Crayola, and Kraftwerk among many others.
So now all we need to get are tickets and a schedule and see you there!
CHICAGO.-The explosive social and political climate of the late-1960s produced a revolutionary spirit that led to the fusion of avant-garde art and rock music. Artists as diverse as Andy Warhol, The Velvet Underground, Captain Beefheart, and Richard Hamilton burst forth with new creative endeavors. The Museum of Contemporary Art (MCA), Chicago, presents Sympathy for the Devil: Art and Rock and Roll Since 1967, the first major exhibition devoted to the convergence of contemporary art and rock music over the past forty years. Sympathy for the Devil opens on September 29, 2007, the MCA’s official 40th Anniversary and the kick-off of “40 Free Days,” and closes on January 6, 2008
