Opening Reception: Oscar Solis - Diagrams, Systems, Collective Power

  • Chicago Art Department 1926 South Halsted Street Chicago, IL, 60608 United States (map)

Diagrams, Systems, and Collective Power examines the ways artists, designers, and educators use diagramming as a tool to map, question, and disrupt systems of power. In a time of heightened political and social unrest, the exhibition explores how visualizing power structures can expose hierarchies, shift narratives, and offer collective strategies for resistance. Featuring CAD resident artists Oscar Solis, Eric Von Hayes, Dud Lawson, Silvia Ines Gonzalez, Fabrizzio Subia, Sarah Whyte, and others, the show presents diagrams not just as representations but as interventions—dynamic frameworks that challenge meaning, value, and history while imagining new possibilities for collective power.
