The second edition of Expo Chicago—Chicago’s major art show at Navy Pier—announced the curator for the In/Situ portion of their show. Shamim M. Momin, director, curator and co-founder of LAND (Los Angeles Nomadic Division), will be choosing the art you see around Navy Pier, outside the booths.
That is what a curator does—chooses the art (a wee bit of a simplification). In/Situ is the art set up throughout Expo Chicago and last year it was impressive. Momin worked at LAND, which is a non-profit public art organization that deals specifically with site-specific art contemporary art. She has also worked as associate curator at the Whitney Museum of American Art. That is just one stop on her resume.
Expo Chicago 2013, which is in September, promises to be more impressive than the first year. The event is in the process of making the time around their show a reason to visit Chicago in September.
Don’t worry art fans. It is not freezing in the Windy City in September. For more information head to www.expochicago.com.
