theMART, with the City of Chicago, features a full summer program in 2019 for Art on theMART, the largest permanent digital art projection in the world.
Projections begin approximately 15 minutes after sunset. Programming will run 7 days/week from May 13 - September 29, 2019
Art on theMART’s summer program will feature a bespoke work commissioned by NeoCon, the leading event for the commercial interiors industry, which takes place at theMART each June. This year the event is marked in celebration of its 51st edition. Conceived by artist and director, Rick Valicenti, and 2012 Poet Laureate, Natasha Trethewey, CONFLUENCE is a both a work of poetry and visual animation, responding back and forth with one another. Inspired by the location of theMART at the confluence of the Chicago River’s three branches, this expressive installation explores the themes of passage and transformation through a series of nine moving Haiku exchanges. CONFLUENCE will launch Sunday, June 9, at 9pm to welcome more than 50,000 design professionals to the City of Chicago and kick off NeoCon’s 3-day event of design launches and programming.
On June 13, Art on theMART will debut a collaboration between scenic designer John Musial and Lucky Plush Artistic Director Julia Rhoads. The work, titled Limelight Parade, utilizes fragmented choreography and script from Julia Rhoads' work with Lucky Plush, a Chicago-based dance and theater ensemble, reimagined within John Musial's layered and evocative projection design. The source material draws from Lucky Plush's Rooming House, in which varied interpretations of personal and mythic storytelling leads down a rabbit hole into the lives of everyday people who do extraordinary things.
“This project brings a surprising intimacy and humanity to the grand stage of theMART’s river-façade, truly reflecting the adventurous and collaborative spirit of Chicago theater,” Julia Rhoads stated.
John Boesche will also present new acts to 7 soliloquies, a multi-part projection piece that premiered March 13, highlighting seven significant Chicago theater artists in brief solo performances. In addition to performers, the work features prominent composers, sound and scenic designers, puppeteers and visual artists, including Sandra Delgado, Blair Thomas, Mike Nussbaum and more.
The approximately five minute program will loop for two hours each night, beginning approximately 15 minutes after sunset.
Art on theMART 2019 program selections were confirmed by an esteemed Curatorial Advisory Board comprised of several of the city’s most distinguished arts and culture leaders. In addition to Art on theMART Executive Director Cynthia Noble, Curatorial Advisory Board members include Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago Assistant Curator Grace Deveney, Art Institute of Chicago Assistant Curator Robyn Farrell, EXPO CHICAGO President/Director Tony Karman, Chicago Department of Cultural Affairs and Special Events Director of Public Art Lydia Ross, artist Edra Soto and artist Amanda Williams.

About Art on theMART
Art on theMART is the largest permanent digital art projection in the world, projecting contemporary artwork across the 2.5 acre river-façade of theMART. This expansive permanent piece of public art continues Chicago’s legacy of providing both residents and visitors with exceptional art that is both free and accessible to all. Projections are visible to the public from Wacker Drive and along the Chicago Riverwalk two hours a night for ten months of the year (March – December), beginning approximately 15 minutes after sundown. The projections are regularly on view five nights a week from Wednesday – Sunday, with expanded nightly viewing from May 13 – September 30, 2019.
The program content rotates every season and is selected with the assistance and expertise of the Curatorial Advisory Board. The City of Chicago and theMART work in partnership to manage and curate the projected artwork over the course of a 30-year agreement. Privately funded by Vornado Realty Trust, owner of theMART, Art on theMART marks the first time a projection of its size and scope will be completely dedicated to digital art with no branding, sponsorship credits or messaging. The permanent projection system illuminates theMART with 34 state-of-the-art projectors totaling almost one million lumens. For more information, visit artonthemart.com

The world's only permanent projected public art display will be showcasing the bold, timely and rousing work of Barbara Kruger every night at 7:30 and 8 p.m. from Sept. 17 through Nov. 25. The show is called Untitled (Questions), a series of projections that ask a variety of provocative questions meant to illicit thoughtful consideration from the viewer. As you surely know, Kruger is known the world over as an incisive critic of popular culture. Art on theMART hopes to emphasize Kruger's voice as one that is particularly resonant, courageous and crucial in a time where so much unrest and anxiety afflict our nation.
This art display is shown in a prominent walkway along the banks of the Chicago River, free to the public, and coincides with the Art Institute of Chicago’s presentation of Thinking of You. I Mean Me. I Mean You., an in-depth look at four decades of Kruger’s practice, the largest and most comprehensive presentation of Kruger’s work in 20 years.
Tune in to the livestream on the Art on theMART Facebook page on September 17 at 7:30 p.m. For more information, visit: artonthemart.com/programming/. Register to attend the launch event at the link below.
