This past weekend, Around the Coyote held its Fall Arts Festival in Wicker Park — and Eyewitness News Chicagoist was there to check out the visual arts offerings. (We missed out on the film, music, performance and new media portions, though — pressed for time.) The viz arts portion of the fest took up several spaces around WP — including a couple of vacant storefronts — and included works by more than 100 artists from all media. Some of our faves were the bright, pop-arty acrylic-and-resin pieces by Nikki Hollander; Crystal Neiweem's collage portraits made from ripped-up magazine pages; and Ross Martens' tiny little otherworlds. more ›
