Previous Resident Artists of Spudnik Press will come together to speak about their experiences working in a communal studio. Panelists will address how local residencies can counteract difficulties maintaining access to particular types of studio spaces. The panel discussion will address how these artists were able to integrate with a community new to them, and how a change of materials and space affected their working habits. The panel will focus on how the studio needs of a printmaker different from other mediums, and the affect that the particular studio space can have on an artist and their mode of working.

Spudnik Press will be taking part in a two-day local maker and publisher fair at Gallery 400, on the UIC campus. This event is in conjunction with ArtWork: A National Conversation About Art, Labor, and Economics. From what I hear, many of Chicago’s best community oriented spaces and projects will be on-hand to show off what they make and what they do.
