ronreason — Tue, 27 May 2008 17:03:43 -0500

In the aftermath of Kenya’s post-election bloodshed earlier this year, is the country safe and stable? How challenging is life in Africa’s largest slums, for children in particular? Finally, where if at all does joy and wonder and art exist in such a life?

“Hope in a Hard Place,” opening Friday, June 13, 2008, explores these questions. It is the first exhibition at within(Reason), a contemporary art and photo space, 1932 S Halsted St. #408 in Pilsen. Chicago photographer-artist-designer Ron Reason is the creator of the space and the show; the work will include his photographs from two months in Africa this spring, as well as paintings and mixed media by Kenyan artists, including a self-taught collective in the Kibera slum whose work has never been shown outside Nairobi. more...
