Cheap Art For Freedom

CAFF Collective

We intend to investigate the production of bad feelings by "misusing" public spaces (for example, loitering, carrying boomboxes around, etc). We will make maps and objects that will allow others to participate in these activities and solicit others to make maps of their own; maps will be posted and solicited in a variety of media. Our initial solicitation, or "suitcase," will be "worry lines": clothes lines erected in public places that invite people to air their dirty laundry by writing down worries and pinning them to the lines.

A number of events invite participation. First: Sat. April 21 outside McCormick Center on the lakeshore path in the p.m. (during Green festival) Others: TBD
