CHI / Make sure I’m there when you open your eyes

Make sure I’m there when you open your eyes: Karen Dana Cohen, Jaclyn Jacunski, Cydney Lewis March 4–April 15, 2023
Opening Reception: Saturday, March 4, 1–4pm
Tiger Strikes Asteroid Chicago is proud to present Make sure I’m there when you open your eyes, featuring work by the three newest members of TSA CHI: Karen Dana Cohen, Jaclyn Jacunski, and Cydney Lewis. The exhibition is organized by fellow TSA CHI member, Teresa Silva, and will be on view from March 4–April 15, 2023. An opening reception will be held on Saturday, March 4, 1–4pm.
Make sure I’m there when you open your eyes is a group exhibition conceived in tandem between the artists and curator. As members of a cooperative, they share an incisive and affirming relationship that embraces affinities and differences in the thinking and creating processes.
This exhibition presents new works in sculpture, drawing, and assemblage by Dana, Jacunski, and Lewis respectively. The pieces build upon and ripple out from previous works in the artists’ ongoing practices, which are rooted in concerns with material and affect. Make sure I’m there when you open your eyes is an offering to the viewer, an exhibition that is a container for energy, actively holding synergies to effect a greater aesthetic charge.

About the artists
Karen Dana Cohen b. 1982 in Mexico City is an artist, educator and independent curator based in Chicago, IL. She received a BFA from The National Institute of Fine Arts in Mexico City (2005) and earned her MFA degree at Hunter College, New York (2011). Her practice acts as process-based research where she shows her complex identity as a Syrian Jew growing up in Mexico and more recently, as an immigrant mother. She has participated in national and international exhibitions, showing her own work as well as been a curator and organizer. Her must recent curatorial project Circularities showed the work of two contemporary female artist mothers that build paintings in a process that requires destruction and reconstruction. She is an active member of Tiger Strikes Asteroid Chicago and
teaches Studio Courses at Lillstreet Art Center. For the last five years she has been a leading mentor in a critique group of artists who are also caregivers.
I paint as a performative practice; to explore how we inhabit our bodies in a foreign context while making bridges to meet the viewer halfway. I aim to reclaim the meaning of home and place, and the consistent looming threats of erasure, removal and cultural legacies imposed on immigrants like me. The gestures on the pieces explore displacement, belonging, translation, and power dynamics. I treat painting as an expression beyond language, confronting a rhetoric of exclusion. Work that embodies and gives voice to the lived immigrant experience as
testimony of longing, migration, and shaping new identity. As Gloria Anzaldúa said: “To survive the Borderlands, you must live sin fronteras, be a crossroads.”
Jaclyn Jacunski is an interdisciplinary artist who exhibits both locally and nationally. She earned her MFA from SAIC and BFA from the University of Wisconsin–Madison, and she has taught at SAIC and Harrington College of Design. Jacunski’s practice stems from involvement in social and political causes, and she seeks to find understanding in political controversies that surround the land and community acts of resistance. Jacunski was a BOLT artist-in-residence at the Chicago Artists Coalition, and she has exhibited at ICAs in both Portland and Baltimore. Her work has been featured in the Chicago Tribune and Hyperallergic.
Cydney Lewis is a Chicago-based multimedia artist with a distinguished multidisciplinary background. She began in architecture at the University of Illinois Urbana Champaign, where she received a BS in Architectural Studies; she also attended the L’École D’architecture de Versailles, France. The fluidity of her ability to transform materials reflects her mastery of ballet as well as her endeavors in film. Her art is held in private collections around the world and has been exhibited widely, at venues including the Union League Chicago, Hyde Park Art Center and The Ukrainian Institute of Modern Art. She has received various honors, among them residencies with Chicago Public Schools and Lyseloth Musikerwohnhaus Basel, Switzerland, as well as awards including 3Arts Make A Wave, Best in Show at Governor State University and the Black Creativity/Green Art Award from the Museum of Science and Industry. Currently, she is a member of Tiger Strikes Asteroid of Chicago.
Walking through my community inspires me to imagine multidimensional landscapes created from everyday objects. These unconventional artifacts reflect the world we live in, consume, and fill with things. Printed material and imagery document our existence. Discarded objects reveal what (and who) our society values, and what gets thrown away. Through drawing, sculpture, and installation assembled around these materials, I discover their stories, their beauty, and endless adaptation. They create worlds that seem familiar and surreal.
About the curator
Teresa Silva is a writer, curator, and member of Tiger Strikes Asteroid, a non-profit network of artist-run spaces, since 2016.
Her writings have appeared in Obsidian and Left Coast Press Inc. Recent exhibitions have been presented at Mana Contemporary, Chicago Cultural Center, and 6018North, and were featured in Art Papers, Chicago Tribune, Chicago Reader, Newcity Chicago and WBEZ 91.5.
In 2017, Silva was a Diversity + Leadership Fellow with the Artist Communities Alliance; in 2018, an artist-in-residence at The Rauschenberg Residency on Captiva; and, in 2020, a visual arts panelist for the National Endowment for the Arts. In 2022, she was listed at #5 in Newcity's Art 50: Chicago's Visual Vanguard for her contributions to making the city’s arts ecosystem more sustainable and equitable. Currently, Silva sits on the board of directors for Heaven Gallery.
Prior to 2023, Silva was the executive and artistic director at the Chicago Artists Coalition, where she created supportive spaces for artists to advance their creativity and career by connecting them with leading art professionals and audiences through presentation and dialogue.

The Best Cheap Car Insurance Companies in Baltimore
The Best Cheap Car Insurance Companies in Baltimore Maryland I am a former insurance agent and banker turned consumer advocate. My priority is to help others understand how insurance works. No one buys insurance from the average person!!!!!! The worst insurance company I have ever dealt with. Terrible customer service. I was having second thoughts regarding how to use this insurance company. I had a break in the rear seat after crashing into my sister, got out of a big group car the next day. They were very rude and did not help me, not knowing how to give any type of assistance! No one answered the phone or did any of the calls. They did not care about the situation. I called with multiple issues which were resolved with no questions asked. They got me a rental car which is my first time being called to my car after getting a rental. So bad. When I first went there and got the rental for $20 they refused to show me the proof. I have now paid for insurance.

Car insurance discounts in Maryland
Car insurance discounts in Maryland should be considered and carefully considered before looking into a new Maryland auto insurance policy. A Maryland auto insurance policy with the required coverage will likely leave you over charged even after taking out the minimum coverage required by the state.

In Maryland, you are required by law to carry your insurance plan in your car. That law is meant to protect motorists from potential lawsuits. Insurance carriers are required to provide at least minimum liability coverage on non-collision or comprehensive policies. If you don’t satisfy these requirements you can face fines, suspension of your license plates and registration, and even jail time, for a second offense or more. Some companies offer free coverage that can help you avoid such consequences. Some companies do not provide full protection, but instead pay to have additional coverage that is free and worth the money.

You can avoid the pitfalls of driving uninsured by ensuring that the minimum coverage is in place. Having a clean driving record, easy filing of insurance.
Factors That Impact Insurance Costs in Baltimore
Factors That Impact Insurance Costs in Baltimore – Insurance companies can estimate your premium using several factors to assess your risk profile including: Your driving record, the type of car you drive and the number of accidents, theft and uninsured motorists. Baltimore also has a low car insurance claim frequency. This suggests that although Baltimore car insurance is comparatively cheap, insurance laws are in tune with the national average, according to the Insurance Research Council. If law enforcement and insurance companies find out you have no insurance coverage, they can expect to take advantage of any shortfall or be suspicious of auto accident costs, according to the Insurance Research Council. That comes as the result of an excessive number of accidents each year. As a result, insurance companies might consider raising rates even if you have a clean record. To ensure they can maintain that policy, Maryland lawmakers in late December were allowing insurers to consider a if they get a DUI or DWI. A conviction for a first-time offense includes a potential DUI charge that can result in a $5,000 fine and.

Cookbook Dreams and Inflatable Futures
Antoine Lefebvre, Robin Cameron, Cybele Lyle, Luca Antonucci, John Bohl, NOWORK, and Lauren van Haaften-Schick
On view: March 8, 2014 through April 19, 2014
Opening Reception: Saturday, March 8, 2014, 7-10pm
Selected works seen here. Installation images here.
Guest Spot at THE REINSTITUTE (Baltimore) is pleased to present Cookbook Dreams and Inflatable Futures, a group exhibition organized by Arts & Sciences Projects. Opening Saturday March 8, 2014, the works will be on view through April 19, 2014. The show will feature artists’ books and works in other media by Antoine Lefebvre, Robin Cameron, Cybele Lyle, Luca Antonucci, John Bohl, NOWORK, and Lauren van Haaften-Schick.
Inspired by Ant Farm's 1971 Inflatocookbook, which envisioned a utopia of DIY inflatables within its humble photocopied pages, Cookbook Dreams and Inflatable Futures brings together artists who concoct varied approaches to circulating and advancing concepts and ideas central to their practice through innovative means of book making and distribution. For these artists, books are conceived as alternative spaces in which to exhibit works to a broader audience; they embrace a process-oriented approach to book making, where dialogues are revealed between books and works in other media, including photography, prints, video, and painting. The assembled artists in Cookbook Dreams and Inflatable Futures not only utilize the book as a vehicle for their ideas, they also position the book as an art object, thus challenging notions of assigned value in contemporary art. In making a diverse range of books, these artists assert agency by choice of content, form, materials, and production values. What unites the artists in the show is the realization of the boundless possibilities of books as they enter circulation, free to establish a life of their own.
Antoine Lefebvre initiated La Bibliothèque Fantastique (LBF) in 2009 as an artist’s book virtual publisher. Free and downloadable from the internet, LBF books are made of excerpts of other works, with pages, sentences and words realized in new editions, thus developing a discourse on the ontology of the book. Robin Cameron's The Book That Makes Itself exposes its own production through its content and form. By personifying the book itself, Cameron articulates her artistic practice as the subject (The Artist), agent and author. The collaborative practice of Cybele Lyle and Luca Antonucci reveals itself in their Space, Time + Architecture project, which includes the titular Sigfried Giedion tome in a highly redacted state, collaged photographs that imagine new conceptions of space, and a revised, letterpressed Space, Time + Architecture that unites their ideas into a new form. John Bohl uses painting and sculpture to examine utopia, kitsch, and romanticism. Typically produced in collabration with other artists, his books may be seen as sculptural objects dialectically engaged with his paintings and works in other media. NOWORK is a platform for collaboratively produced, anonymous projects that relate to New York City, with a focus on photographic material in public spaces. Not citing individual authorship for their work has allowed them to treat their source material, whether taken or found, as part of an act of re-circulation. The problem of artistic agency features prominently in Lauren van Haaften-Shick’s curatorial practice, which considers a selection of art exhibitions manifested in alternative forms, such as publications. van Haaften-Schick’s work highlights the book form (and printed matter) as a crucial means of disseminating artworks and ideas, potentially in ways that are more historically accessible and lasting than a traditional exhibition would have been.

The Hebrew Immigrant Aid Society: Its Organizational History and Internal Historiography
By Elizabeth Hyman, former Assistant Processing Archivist, HIAS Archives Project; current Photo & Reference Archivist, American Jewish Historical Society
Over the course of three years, in a project funded by HIAS in partnership with the American Jewish Historical Society, archivists at AJHS will organize, describe and make available to the public more than a thousand boxes of historical administrative files (primarily 1955-1990s). These files document the work of HIAS staff and lay leadership as they fulfilled the HIAS mission to rescue and resettle refugees and migrants. In addition, this project includes the creation of a database of clients who registered with HIAS between 1955 and 2000; it is accessible via a search screen, through which former HIAS clients, genealogists and family members are able to determine whether HIAS holds restricted case files on specific people. Learn more at the HIAS Project Page: http://www.ajhs.org/hias-home.

HIAS Letterhead from the 1952 Annual Report
The Hebrew Immigrant Aid Society, or HIAS, is an amalgamation of the many Jewish immigrant aid societies which operated between about 1880 through 1950—from the mass emigration of Eastern European Jews to the United States, to the crises in Europe, the Middle East, and North Africa before, during, and after World War II.
HIAS, in its official reports and publications dating from 1911 onward, claims to have been founded in years ranging from 1870 to 1884. An Annual Report from 1911 set the founding date at 1888, while an annual report from 1914 gives 1908-1909. Documents from 1948, 1954, 1959, and 1964 all claim 1884 as the founding date. Yet, 1884 does not correspond to any identifiable late nineteenth century Jewish aid organization. HIAS presently—according to their website—uses 1881 as their founding date.
The HIAS Archives team—tasked with processing the last 60 years of HIAS’ institutional archives—looked back through our records, along with the earlier HIAS records in the custody of the YIVO Institute, and secondary sources, to determine the veracity of these dates. Through our research, we determined that 1882 is the most accurate date of the organization’s founding; our conclusion is corroborated in historian Mark Wischnitzer’s Visas to Freedom: the History of HIAS.
To arrive at this conclusion, we had to look very closely at the immigrant aid societies formed by (primarily German) Jews to receive the ever-increasing numbers of their Eastern European coreligionists. And the picture which emerged from our research is not of a singular organization working to aid new arrivals, but an ad-hoc collection of groups, quickly forming and merging and re-merging in response to the unique challenges encountered by the new arrivals. The earliest of these organizations was the first Hebrew Emigrant Aid Society, established in 1870. The Russian Emigrant Relief Committee was established in 1881, and the second Hebrew Emigrant Aid Society formed out of said organization later that year. The Hebrew Emigrant Auxiliary Society—which Wischnitzer refers to as “the nearest approach to a parent organization of HIAS”—was founded in 1882.[1]
HIAS continued on, absorbing related immigrant aid organizations in Baltimore, Boston, and Philadelphia. In 1927 it joined forces with the Jewish Colonization Association (the JCA and/or ICA), and the Jewish Emigration Committee of Europe, known as Emigdirect, to form HICEM. HICEM acted as HIAS’ international arm, and was instrumental in their work conducted during the Second World War.
After the war, HICEM dissolved, and individual overseas HIAS offices took over the complex task of resettling the Jewish survivors and Displaced Persons of Europe, and later, of the Middle East and North Africa. In 1954, HIAS merged with the United Service for New Americans (USNA), and the Migration Department of the American Jewish Joint Distribution Committee to form the United HIAS Service.
Today, it is simply “HIAS.”
[1] Other organizations founded in this period Hachnosis Orchim in 1889—which changed its name to the Hebrew Sheltering House Association in 1907; and the Voliner-Zhitomer Aid Society in 1902, which quickly changed its name to the Hebrew Immigrant Aid Society. In 1909, the Hebrew Immigrant Aid Society merged with the Hebrew Sheltering House Association, calling itself the Hebrew Sheltering and Immigrant Aid Society.

We Are Not Really Strangers
by Jaclyn Jacunski
This work plays with a rainbow spectrum of colored plastics and melted mirrors layered onto a chain link fence to transform an examine the sheer density of chain fencing on the west side an area bifurcated by development, and disinvestment. It as an architectural material creates a psychic mass that is distinct from other parts of city acting as and overlay that can sometimes be very tense as citizens, contend and participate with every day.
The vibrate, reflective color and material aims to entertain the neighborhood residents who pass by in hopes to give a sort of release with the unexpected environmental change with the moment of visual play that abstracts and reflects the materiality of the street. At the same time, the work probes the social and economic systems that shape communities, and issues of class, race, and gender that lie beneath its pattern repeat mapping out local migrations and economies of our urban life. The work investigates the conditions of new urban landscapes, including the effects of gentrification, renewal, and violence in the city.
Jaclyn Jacunski (jaclynjacunski.com) is a Chicago-based artist. Her works take on various formats from printmaking, installation, and sculpture using themes of community and its boundaries. Known for using materials scavenged from building sites, often in gentrifying neighborhoods, Jacunski reveals how neighborhood landscapes become expressions of a lived experience resisting powerful cultural systems such as gentrification, environmental threats, and state violence. She is the Director of Civic Engagement for the School of the Art Institute of Chicago where she creates platforms for the arts and social practice in the North Lawndale. Jaclyn works closely with local residents on the Westside to develop art programming from and with the community. In her work, she promotes community engagement in the arts with the aim to build equity and social justice in Chicago. She is interdisciplinary artist who exhibits locally and nationally, she earned her M.F.A. from SAIC and a B.F.A. from the University of Wisconsin- Madison. She has taught at SAIC and Harrington College of Design. She has been an artist in resident at Chicago Artist’s Coalition’s Bolt, exhibited at the ICA in Portland and Baltimore and recently highlighted in the Chicago Tribune and Hyperallergic.

Are You Ready
by Kahlil Robert Irving
Previously exhibited at Wesleyan University Center for the Arts, “Are You Ready” is a flag sculpture that connotes the relationship of a surrender flag and a racing flag. There is always a struggle and reality to face. So to use the flag with its complex usage past and present is a symbol I find relevant. “Are You Ready” is a response to the call that Tracy Chapman narrates within her song “I’m Ready”. She is singing for passage, for love, for health, for life. So I am responding to her call. This flag flying is a message for Black life and the perseverance of Black people through the constant pressures faced while living today.
Kahlil Robert Irving (b. 1992, San Diego, Ca) is a multimedia artist, currently living and working part time between Saint Louis, Missouri and Brooklyn, New York. Irving completed his BFA in art history and ceramics at the Kansas City Art Institute. In May of 2017, Irving earned his Master of Fine Arts at Washington University in St. Louis. At Washington University in St. Louis Irving was a Chancellor’s Graduate Fellow. Irving was awarded the 2017 Alice C. Cole Fellowship from the studio art department at Wellesley College in Wellesley, Massachusetts. Recently, Irving completed the Turner Teaching Fellow at the New York State College of Ceramics at Alfred University. His work is in the collections of the Riga Porcelain Museum, in Riga, Latvia; Foundation for Contemporary Ceramic Art in Kecskemet, Hungary; The RISD Museum in Providence, Rhode Island; The Carnegie Museum of Art, Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania; The Nerman Museum of Contemporary Art at Johnson Community College in Overland Park, Kansas; The Whitney Museum of American Art, New York, New York. Most recently, his practice has involved making objects that are to challenge constructs around identity and culture in western civilization. He wants to challenge realities of Racism and objects that exist within the history of decorative arts and contemporary life.

Press Release:
Trevor Shimizu: Performance Artist presents an overview of the artist’s videos, video paintings, and online interventions, offering a prescient and poignant commentary on affect and identity in our socially mediated moment. While Shimizu is recognized primarily for his paintings and drawings, the artist’s media works help to reframe his broader practice as an expanded form of performance. Often produced using lo-fi and off-the-shelf digital technologies, his time-based works resonate with strategies employed by an earlier generation of video artists with whom he found himself in direct dialogue through his former job as technical director at Electronic Arts Intermix (EAI) in New York. Just as those artists first produced work using Sony Portapaks and camcorders, Shimizu uses the technological tools at hand both to record actions for the camera and to employ the visual language of mass media for other means.
For Shimizu, video in its expanded sense has a provocative relationship to painting. From mid-twentieth century films about Pablo Picasso and Jackson Pollock, where the process of the “heroic genius” male artist is documented by the marks made directly on what appears to be the lens of the camera, to the touch screens of our contemporary moment, the intersection of painting and the moving image has increasingly conflated the stroke of a paintbrush with the swipe of a hand on a screen. In his ongoing series of video paintings, Shimizu pairs his existing videos with large unstretched canvases with holes that have been cut out to fit a device. These painterly frames for video are usually produced in one of two distinct genres: monochromes or gestural abstractions. While his videos and paintings are different in delivery, Shimizu sees both modes of working as coming “from the perspective of a character,” which in turn can be understood as a kind of performance of the role of the artist. (1)
Within these works, his deadpan delivery sometimes makes it difficult to discern the Trevor Shimizu the individual from the artist as character. The dry humor that permeates much of his work thus acts as a kind of mask for his critical investigation into identity and the presentation of the self. Although there is no singular character depicted in Shimizu’s work, he often gravitates to the figure of the lone “beta male.” Contrary to the negative associations often conjured by angry internet subcultures such as incels, edge lords, brogrammers, Shimizu offers a more vulnerable depiction of mediated masculine subjectivity. Instead, his self-conscious and often self-effacing portrayals– from the passive fan to the rejected romantic, as well as his idealized fantasies of other possible selfies–speak to shared insecurities and a collective need to belong.
— Alex Klein, Dorothy & Stephen R. Weber (CHE’60) Curator

CHI / Artist In Residence: Latham Zearfoss

Artist In Residence: Latham Zearfoss Residency Dates: December 17, 2022 - February 18, 2023
Tiger Strikes Asteroid Chicago is pleased to announce that Latham Zearfoss will be our next artist in residence. This residency will allow Zearfoss the opportunity to execute a new iteration of his ongoing “Stalagmite Creamsicles” project, a seasonally-iterative body of work comprised of ice sculptures dyed with natural dyes that contain seeds for a native garden that will bloom where they are left to melt.
Zearfoss produces time-based images and objects about selfhood and otherness. Often collaborative, these works ask: how do we come to know ourselves as social human subjects? Across media, Zearfoss’s work is anchored in the belief that identity is a cumulative, political effect, inherited through a kind of collective bargaining. These themes find evocative, sensual resonances through dramatic shifts in color and light, reverberating soundscapes populated by disembodied voices, queer iterations of the not-noticed and everyday, and “soft borders”—spatial markings of undetermined significance that invite participation, transgression, and even penetration. Zearfoss’s residency is organized by Jaclyn Jacunski.

Artist Bio:
Latham Zearfoss works in Chicago, where they produce time-based images, objects, and experiences about selfhood and otherness. Outside of the studio, they contribute to collective motions toward joy and reflection through social projects such as a queer dance party (Chances Dances), a critical space for white allyship (Make Yourself Useful), and an itinerant conference on socially-engaged art (Open Engagement). Latham graduated from The School of the Art Institute of Chicago with a BFA in 2008 and the University of Illinois at Chicago with an MFA in 2011. They have exhibited their work, screened their videos, and DJ’d internationally and all over the U.S.
Organizer Bio: Jaclyn Jacunski is an interdisciplinary artist who exhibits both locally and nationally. She earned her MFA from SAIC and BFA from the University of Wisconsin–Madison, and she has taught at SAIC and Harrington College of Design. Jacunski’s practice stems from involvement in social and political causes, and she seeks to find understanding in political controversies that surround the land and community acts of resistance. Jacunski was a BOLT artist-in-residence at the Chicago Artists Coalition, and she has exhibited at ICAs in both Portland and Baltimore. Her work has been featured in the Chicago Tribune and Hyperallergic.
