May 31-Jun 2 - Lori Waxman's 60 Wrd/Min Art Critic, INOVA FREE
Chicago-based critic and art historian Lori Waxman will receive artists in need of reviews. Reviews, which are free of charge and scheduled in advance, will be written on site in 25 minute increments and posted in the gallery. Artist, artwork, critic and review will all exist in the same space simultaneously with the aim of demystifying the art review process. Learn more at 60wrdmin.org.

Jun 7-Aug 11 - Martha Wilson, INOVA FREE
Opening Reception: Jun 7, 5pm-8pm with Artist Talk at 7pm. Over the span of her 40 year career, Martha Wilson has embraced the critical questions posed by feminist and socially engaged art. Her complex body of work encompasses conceptually-based performances, videos and photo-text compositions dealing with identity as self-defined, projected and negotiated. Regarding both gender and identity as fluid expression, Wilson has focused on fictive appearances and double transformations.

Jun 21-Sep 15 - Steve Rowell: Uncanny Sensing, INOVA FREE
Through the use of autonomous camera systems, camouflaged sensors and remote audio monitors, Steve Rowell captures and presents raw media from the field. Animal behavior, industrial processes and erosional effects are the subject of his new photographs and an immersive video installation.
