Jane Jacobs Meets Brian Eno: Jerry’s Map

In the grand tradition of local daily papers reviewing art exhibitions in the last week of the show, we now recommend you take the Blue Line to Chicago Avenue sometime during the next five days to see Jerry’s Map at Intuit Gallery. https://www.art.org/directions-and-hours/

“Gretzinger paints and collages pieces of the map based on randomly-generated instructions drawn from a special deck of instruction cards. When an instruction card is drawn, a modification is made to the specified panel, depending on what card and instruction is drawn. The original panel is scanned and filed, and a new panel takes its place. Rules could call for the addition of a new panel, new painting or collaging on an existing panel, the creation of a new facility or feature, or even the addition of a “void”-a white space removing what is underneath that can only be stopped by a defense wall card.”
