Bert Green Fine Art is pleased to present our first show by Chicago-based artist Mara Baker, and the extension of our Summer group print show “Prints Published During the Pandemic.”

Mara Baker is an installation artist who creates her works using found materials specific to life in the city: construction materials, fragments of urban infrastructure, discarded packaging, wire, plastic, etc. Her installations are visible day and night in well-lit storefronts or other visually accessible spaces. In 2021 she was a resident artist at Spudnik Press in Chicago, where she created a series of monotypes which use the same visual language as her installation work. Created in several series, a selection of these prints make up this show.

Prints Published During the Pandemic is a selection of limited-edition prints published by Bert Green Fine Art between late 2019 and today. Most of these works were offered as web-only releases, but have never been shown in person. The prints are by Shepard Fairey, Moira Hahn, Stephen Kaltenbach, Sandra Yagi, Jeff Gillette, and Rebecca Gray Smith.

All gallery events are free and open to the public. Additional information found at the gallery website at http://bgfa.us. Please forward to any interested parties.
