Ensemblage, a gallery + stage of the Milwaukee Avenue Arts Festival, July 23rd - 25th, 2010

Below are photos + videos of Ensemblage, a gallery I curated and agonized-over for the 2010 Milwaukee Avenue Arts Festival in Logan Square, Chicago [earlier posts labeled "Ensemblage at MAAF" record some of the process of curating, organizing, and marketing the show and detail all the artists  included].   Ensemblage was up for three days of art, music, dance, theatre, painting, film, spoken word, and generally raucous fun.  Epic win.

Final Layout

This is the final version of the layout that I'm going to post.  I don't doubt there will be things that won't exactly fit or need to be worked around. But let's have these works at Nothin' Less for the installation and we can start with this template.
