Wesley Kimler (painter, agitator, and co-founder of http://www.sharkforum.org) slices and dices the Chicago art world. Ouch. Wesley gives us the skinny on being an artist in Chicago, who is ruining the Chicago art world, and what we can do to start turning it all around. The man is not afraid to name names and calls for the heads of many a Chicago Art world insider. Chicago, meet the "Shark." Lets hope we are not his foe.ALSO: In theory, we will be in this week's Time Out Chicago!!! Bad at Sports will be on auction for the 40000 moving support fund at Phyllis' Musical Inn (1800 W. Division St.) June 29th from 7-10pm (featuring a silent art and us auction and the musical stylings of Oh Charles!)Why not throw a vote in for us at Podcast Alley.
