STRAY SHOW PERFORMANCE
Stan Shellabarger and husband Dutes Miller will be performing at the Stray Show in the Western Exhibitions booth on Saturday, May 8 at 2pm by adding on to their crocheted pink "tube." As this tube of pink yarn grows, it forces the two further apart, yet the continual, tandem activity keeps the lovers both literally and metaphorically attached.

WESTERN EXHIBITIONS works with 14 emerging contemporary artists and one collective. A portable gallery inhabiting empty loft spaces (Dan Attoe in Chicago’s Bridgeport neighborhood in the summer of 2003), collaborating with existing galleries (Mark Wagner and Christian Uhl at Seven Three Split in Chicago), and sponsoring performances and events (Stan Shellabarger’s equinox walks in Humboldt Park, Chicago or Jibangus’ night of “Fun and Horror” at a synagogue in Madison, Wisconsin), WESTERN EXHIBITIONS also shows work out of director Scott Speh’s home headquarters. Recent HQ shows have included Nicholas Frank’s “A Few Snapshots from History” and Pedro Velez’ “New Drawings.”


Western Exhibitions will feature Dan Attoe, Nicholas Frank, Adriane Herman, John Neff, Stan Shellaberger and Pedro Velez in their booth at the Stray Show.
