CHICAGO: For the month of March, ThreeWalls is turning over their exhibition space to resident artist Luis Maldonado for a Chicago incarnation of his traveling shanty-bazaar: It’s All About Things Chicago: Barter Days – A New Type of Auction House. Building shanty-style stalls within the gallery from scavenged wood, tarps and cardboard, Maldonado will transform the white cube into a lean-to auction house. Each weekend, Maldonado will open the floor for bartering, hosting an all day, thematic performance, including special event days where collectors can “sing a song, receive a thing.”
