“Flavorpill Chicago's Deputy Editor, Monica Westin, who has also extensively surveyed outsider/self-taught artists for the Huffington Post and New City, discusses the work and legacy of the celebrated, uber-prolific Howard Finster. Today's panel, moderated by Curator of Exhibitions for the Chicago Cultural Center, Lanny Silverman, also includes film producer Steven Pattie, who screens his in-progress Finster doc I Can Feel Another Planet in My Soul; and Naperville collector Jim Arient, who loaned many of the pieces in Stranger in Paradise (see our preview from July), the impressive exhibition with which today's talk is in conjunction.”
Stephen Gossett, Flavorpill
