BARE STROKES
Friday July 8, 6-10pm

Bare Strokes showcases artwork using the body as a canvas, featuring live painted models, a welcomed twist to the traditional concept of an art showcase. Thus far there have been five installments bringing in people from across Chicago to experience Bare Strokes, and nationally recognized on Oxygen’s “Pretty Strong.” amfm , Paradigm CreatVe Group and Shaun-Andru Photography teamed up this time to celebrate women!

Throughout the 16th and 19th century, women were not allowed to study the nude model. This installment of Bare Strokes will celebrate the figure and art by women by inviting some of Chicago’s best and emerging women artists to showcase their work and take back ownership of the body through art.
