Wrightwood 659 is a new exhibition space designed by Pritzker Prize winning architect Tadao Ando. ABOUT THE CURRENT EXHIBITION:
Then They Came For Me: Incarceration of Japanese Americans During WWII and the Demise of Civil Liberties
What does an American look like?
(33)
Who is welcome in this country? What is every American’s duty in the face of racist government action? These and other important questions are posed by Alphawood Gallery’s first original exhibition, Then They Came for Me: Incarceration of Japanese Americans during WWII and the Demise of Civil Liberties, debuting Thursday, June 29 and continuing through November 19, 2017. Then They Came for Me at Alphawood Gallery (2401 North Halsted Street, Chicago) is free and open to the public. Then They Came for Me examines a dark episode in U.S. history when, in the name of national security, the government incarcerated 120,000 citizens and legal residents during World War II without due process and the constitutional protections to which they were entitled. Executive Order 9066, signed by President Franklin D. Roosevelt on February 19, 1942, set in motion the forced removal and imprisonment of all people of Japanese ancestry (citizens and non-citizens alike) living on or near the West Coast. During this 75th anniversary year of Executive Order 9066, we look back at this shameful past to learn lessons for our present and future in the face of new challenges created by fearmongering and racism at the highest levels of government. Then They Came For Me was organized in partnership with the Japanese American Service Committee (JASC). ABOUT ALPHAWOOD GALLERY
Alphawood Gallery was created by Alphawood Foundation Chicago to serve as a venue for exhibitions furthering the Foundation’s charitable mission. The 12,000-square-foot space first served this purpose for the Chicago presentation of the groundbreaking national touring exhibition, Art AIDS America, which was on display from December 1, 2016 to April 2, 2017. Alphawood Gallery is open as of JUNE 29th Wednesdays and Thursdays from 11am – 8pm, and Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays from 11am -6pm. Admission to Alphawood Gallery is free and open to the public. The Gallery is conveniently located at 2401 N. Halsted in Chicago near the CTA Fullerton ‘L’ stop, as well as several CTA bus routes. Limited free parking is available in an adjacent parking lot, along with more plentiful metered street parking and garage parking nearby.

Not Just Stonewall: New Show Explores 50 Years of Q***r Art
Come see "About Face: Stonewall, Revolt and New Q***r Art"
This is an exhibition about metamorphosis. Fifty years after Stonewall, we’re still very much a community in progress. The traditional view, that Stonewall represents the birth of a gay and le***an movement, couldn’t be further from the truth on at least two counts: it hardly represents the beginning and it was never just gay and le***an. On the contrary, we have always embraced a transpolitics, in the sense of working to variously transgress, transfigure, transpose, transform, and finally, transcend a world of binary options, whether they be gay/straight, male/female, minority/majority, or conformist/nonconformist.
Visit https://wrightwood659.org/ for more information and tickets.
The Stonewall riots in New York City started the modern gay rights movement (at least, they did in the popular imagination). A new exhibition at Wrightwood 659 challenges how we think of Stonewall’s place in history.

John Dugdale is an American photographer who most frequently shot commercial work until he became nearly blind due to an HIV-related illness at the age of 33. After losing most of his sight, he turned to personal work, creating still lifes and portraits of people he was close to, and began using 19th century photographic processes, including large-format cameras and cyanotype and platinum printing techniques, which give his work a soft dream-like quality that seems to transcend time and place.
Dugdale's work will be featured in the upcoming exhibition About Face: Stonewall, Revolt and New Q***r Art, which will be on view starting on May 22 at Wrightwood 659. More information about the exhibition is available at https://wrightwood659.org/

Rashayla Marie Brown is an artist from London who works in mediums ranging from poetry, photography, performance art, video, and various other disciplines. The image above is from her 2015 performance project “Wig Karma (After Adrian Piper),” and documents a 6-month span in which Brown wore a long, straight wig made of human hair from India. She says that the wig contrasts prominent parts of herself: “Afro hair, q***r, sometimes femme, sometimes androgynous.” Her work will be featured in the upcoming exhibition About Face: Stonewall, Revolt and New Q***r Art, which will be on view starting on May 22 at Wrightwood 659.

Artists, Architects Reimagine the Possibilities of Design in ‘Dimensions of Citizenship’
Chicago’s WTTW reviewed Dimensions of Citizenship for their segment “Chicago Tonight.” The exhibition confronts what it means to belong as well as how architecture responds to changing notions of citizenship. The pieces often serve as representations of ideas rather than architectural models, which speaks to the broader idea of the potential of architecture as it relates to citizenship.
The video and transcript are available for viewing here:

Ecological Citizens is a project by SCAPE that requires the direct action of eco-citizens to help reshape and rebuild their environment. It examines how intertidal architecture, such as the use of ECOncrete and biodegradable coir logs, can fight erosion and positively impact the habitability of the Earth. Helping with the project are scientists from the Universitá di Bologna and the Italian Institute of Marine Sciences, who will help deploy marsh replanting units and other technology after the exhibition is over.
Ecological Citizens will be on view during #DimensionsofCitizenship at Wrightwood 659 from Feb 28 - Apr 27.

More than just a visualization of eight watershed systems connecting the US and Mexico, MEXUS, by Estudio Teddy Cruz + Fonna Forman, anticipates a land conservancy project that aims to reconnect our shared geographies. One watershed that is examined in the project is the Tijuana River Watershed, in which the activities of US authorities, like installing more invasive security measures along the border, have environmentally damaged the small communities that exist along its path. MEXUS envisions creating bundles of land from slum areas that have been negatively affected and reconnecting them to the American estuary, creating new shared spaces across nations.
MEXUS will be on view at Wrightwood 659 during #DimensionsofCitizenship, which runs Feb 28 - Apr 27.

"Dark Fiber," a short film by David Rueter and Marissa Lee Benedict, follows the route of a single cable across landscapes. The title borrows the term for the fiber-optic cable in a bundle that is unused, or "unlit," and sometimes tapped into by private networks or companies. The film follows the artists in video montage format as they install a cable across different geographies in an attempt to create a global network system.
"Dark Fiber" is one of the short films that will be on view in the #TransitScreeningLounge during #DimensionsofCitizenship at Wrightwood 659.

Exodus is a short film by Mandana Moghaddam that confronts issues of migration and belonging when people are forced to leave their home en masse due to poverty, social injustice, and the like.

At its place in the US Pavilion at the Venice Biennale, "Thrival Geographies" was the first piece that confronted the viewer, as an "intervention" in the courtyard. It stands in for the level of the citizen, specifically the African American experience of citizen, in which legal citizenship has not always meant having the full rights of one. The metal frame and braids of the piece stretch over the top of the courthouse and reach beyond it, symbolizing the ongoing fight for a citizen's rights.

An indoor reimagining of "Thrival Geographies," by AW Originals (Amanda Williams) and Andres L. Hernandez in collaboration with Shani Crowe, will occupy the atrium of Wrightwood 659 during #DimensionsofCitizenship.

MANY is an online platform that seeks to connect people through mutual needs. It aims to facilitate migration and alleviate the violence and oppression that often tie the two together. It is a system of mutual exchange in which "short-term project-based" visas serve to outwit forces opposing migration and makes use of both underexploited spaces and the talent of migrating individuals.

In her Color(ed) Theory series, Amanda Williams explores, among other concepts, the role color plays in our perceptions of a space. She painted soon-to-be-demolished houses in Englewood, Chicago in monochromatic, bright colors: "culturally coding" them in colors that match consumer products typically marketed toward black people on Chicago's South Side.

About Wrightwood 659
Wrightwood 659, a new exhibition pace in Chicago, officially opened to the public on October 12, 2018. Designed by Pritzker Prize winning architect Tadao Ando, who has transformed a 1920s building with his signature concrete forms and poetic treatment of natural light, Wrightwood 659 will be devoted to exhibitions of architecture and socially engaged art. The inaugural exhibition, Tadao Ando and Le Corbusier: Masters of Architecture, on view October 12–December 15, 2018, will explore Le Corbusier’s pivotal influence on Ando.
In a city rich with art institutions and internationally known for its architecture, Wrightwood 659 is a site for both intimate experiences of art and architecture, and thoughtful engagement with the pressing social issues of our time.
Located at 659 W. Wrightwood Avenue, in Chicago’s Lincoln Park neighborhood, it is a private, non-commercial initiative envisioned as an integral part of the cultural and civic fabric of Chicago, as well as a new kind of arts space and cultural resource.
Wrightwood 659 will host exhibitions generally alternating between socially engaged art and explorations in architecture and design. The Gallery does not possess a collection and it is not intended to be a collecting organization.
Admission is by online reservation only and available at https://tickets.wrightwood659.org. Walk-ins cannot be accommodated.

Time is flying--only 12 days left to see this amazing art installation. If you can possibly get there, go see it!
Here’s the first installment of a 3-part series on “It Can Happen Here: The 75th Anniversary Of The Japanese Internment (Part I)”, by Professor Geoffrey Stone, former Dean of the University of Chicago Law School:
Enjoyed the exhibit will be back soon
Yesterday we attended the 'Then They Came For Me' Exhibit at Alphawood. I highly recommend it to everyone interested in understanding this dark piece of our history. It is an excellent exhibit and very well done.
I saw this Saturday, and it is powerful. 5 stars with tears.
going here later today.
Don't miss this!
We must understand the past or we doomed to repeat it. We are all connected.
