Occupying Space

by paytonc | 09/08/2006

This September, as with any month, Chicago’s parking meters will be fed with millions of quarters. This month, though, a few of those quarters will reserve the 150-odd square feet of public space not for the temporary storage of personal conveyances but for lively, interactive performance art. Park Yourself will feature dozens of performance artists parking themselves, but not any cars, on streets throughout the city — starting today, 8 September (traditionally the start of the “art season” around the city) and continuing through next Saturday, 16 September, in streetside locations from Hyde Park to Edgewater.
