Centerfield | Fielding Practice Podcast #12

We’re back with Episode #12 of “Fielding Practice,” a podcast produced exclusively for the Art21 Blog. This week, our regular panelists Duncan MacKenzie, Dan Gunn and Claudine Isé discuss the demise of Next/Art Chicago–which up until last week had been the US’ longest-running art fair –and the subsequent rise of Expo, a new Chicago-based art fair slated to debut on Navy Pier in September 2012. We also review current exhibitions by Laura Letinsky at the Museum of Contemporary Art, Chicago, and Molly Zuckerman-Hartung, whose show Negative Joy is on view at Corbett vs. Dempsey gallery; we also offer some “best bet” picks for the coming month in Chicago. As an added bonus, this week we keep the conversation blissfully short, at a running time of approximately 38 minutes — as always, thank you for listening!
