| 关于此艺术家 | |
My paintings come from very strong emotional and physical ties to Chicago. Ties that stem from living and working in the city all of my life. Growing up on the north side, I was very conscious of my surroundings. I can remember in vivid detail the many different apartment buildings and neighborhoods of my youth; the lasting impression that riding the "L" for the first time left with me; the peaceful, dark city streets at 4 AM when I set out on my paper route. Memories like these are what inspire me. Feelings I try to capture on canvas. A collection of images that continue to grow every time I take a midnight stroll around the city or catch the "L" on a hot summer's day. |

Herby's Red Hots

)
|
| This is a hot dog stand in a former gas station from the 1920s. It's open late and like every other hot dog stand, has the best hot dogs. |

Forty Two

|
| As I continue to explore the vanishing urban infrastructure that is being replaced by a sort of "suburbanization," I turn the corner and find myself in a more seedy area. Before the internet, adult book stores used to dot the city landscape. This is one such place. They were close to downtown where the unhappily married man could stop off on the way home or at lunch and many were open 24 hours so the lonely and desparate could, well, whatever.
Because there were so many of these places, there must have been a need and since pornography makes up about half of all of the internet traffic and resources, that need must still exist. I was always fascinated by their carnival sideshow appearance. I'm sure there were many freaks inside. |

Why is it Jack's Corner?
How the fuck should I know? Ask the people in Jack's Corner Tap Room. They'll tell you. |

Plug
2008 |
)
|
| This is an examination of the form of a fire plug, or more accurately, the crotch of the fire plug.
The building is an older two-story store/apartment combination. I believe it harkens back to when sole proprierters ran a business downstairs and lived upstairs.
There used to be another building next door. A strip of roofing from the demolished structure is stuck to the wall. I guess it was torn down a while ago because there is a cable TV box on our building.
There is also grafitti on painted-over grafitti. It's just one of many little scenes one may find while wandering the city at night. |
