While I am trying to keep this blog strictly Biggie-related, I just have to post something about my friend, Carrie Schneider. You see, she is an amazing artist (my other post about her is here), and has her latest work for viewing at the MCA in Chicago. She is the featured artist for this month’s 12 x 12 exhibition!
Read a bit here. Then go!!
My friend Carrie is an amazing artist and has a solo show opening this Friday. I’m so excited! Hope to see you at the reception…

WE (Blatic Version) 2007 c-print 58 x 76 inches
After a year-long Fulbright Fellowship to the prestigious Finnish
Academy of Fine Arts in Helsinki, Carrie Schneider returns to Chicago
with a body of new work for her first solo exhibition with
moniquemeloche gallery. Schneider sets up impossible scenarios that
pit a character (usually herself) against some force of nature.
Through a complex web of personal mythologies, Schneider throws
herself into fantasies of escape and concealment, creating uneasy
resonances with simple juxtapositions. The result is a series of
large-scale photographs and two 16mm films that continue to heighten
the familiar to a level of precarious strangeness.
