the institution and the public to  question the notions of
interpretation and reception of the work. These issues are being
perspective with the use of the recipe and its features both

giving instructions for a future realization.
The recipe can be considered as a medium
embodying multiple subjectivities and whose future
depends on its interpretation.

« American Psycho (Chicago) »

MacLean 705, a project space located within an office atrium of the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, is pleased to present American Psycho by the UK-based design group, Åbäke. American Psycho consists of a series of business cards which are derived from a scene in the novel American Psycho, where they go on and on about . . . their business cards.
Bone vs. eggshell?
Silian Rail vs. Romalian?
Letterpress vs. raised type?
Åbäke’s strategy is to take a conversation about business cards and turn it into a discussion about the rhetoric of visual information design by placing the discussion back at the very point where it started: on a business card.

MacLean 705 is a project space devoted to short-term exhibitions that explore the space of art and human relations. Currently on view is Nico Dockx’s audio project, Erased Rirkrit Tiravanija Demonstration Drawing. The projects are organized by Joseph Grigely and administered by the Department of Visual and Critical Studies at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago.  The space is open when the door of MacLean 705 is open, and by appointment. Please contact jgrigely@saic.edu for further information.

Rock Drill by Jacob Epstein was dismantled by its sculptor as a reaction to the horrors of the first world war. It was resurrected in 1974 by Ken Cook and Ann Christoper RA for a Vorticist exhibition. The latter is usually on display at Birmingham city museum, less than 45 minutes away by walking from Eastside Projects.
