BACK TO
BACK OF THE YARDS:

COLLAGE FROM SOUTHSIDE CHICAGO

A brand new series in 2011, BACK TO BACK OF THE YARDS revisits the neighborhood where I grew up on the south side of Chicago not far from the now-defunct Union Stockyards, known to residents still as Back of the Yards. Putting to use bona fide drawings from the 1950's and 60's, as well as notes, school papers from grammar school, high school and college, not to mention more recent accumulations, the series fast-forwards to the present with the inclusion of contemporary imagery, contemplating the continuum and deficiencies of memory, the transformation of ephemera, and the foresight of one woman, my Mom, who salted away boxes and boxes of all this stuff so that one day 50 years later I could rediscover it all up in the attic and cart it off to the studio.
