With summer within arms reach, you'll be seeing some unique places to check out on the Halfstack blog. And the city never falls short of talent to check out; Chicago native Jesus Corral will debut his art of paint on print at the Type House exhibition this weekend. The collection features his popular photography of Chicago architecture, hand-painted with expert typography.
"This exhibition is a culmination from different pieces of my design world into a single expression," Corral said. "This is also a new experiment in analog design production, versus the entirely digital approach I have become accustomed to."
The open reception will take place at the Swedish Snus Pop-Up Shop in Lincoln Park, a community-focused pop up that serves as a public gathering space and shared workplace. The space has been making stops all over the country and will be featuring Chicago artists in its 6 month stay. The event will also feature music by Nick Castle and Eli Saucedo.
Each reception guest will be entered to win one of Corral’s original design pieces titled “Temples,” a breathtaking view from the Hancock 360 Observation deck, valued at $500.
