Post-Urban Culture? --Interviews --Notes --References --IndexIn big cities, major museums and elite galleries tend to dominate our idea of the art world. But beyond the cultural core ruled by these moneyed institutions and their patrons are vibrant, local communities of artists and art lovers operating beneath the high-culture radar. Producing Local Color is a guided tour of three such alternative worlds that thrive in the Chicago neighborhoods of Bronzeville, Pilsen, and Rogers Park. These three neighborhoods are, respectively, historically African American, predominantly Mexican American, and proudly ethnically mixed. Drawing on her ethnographic research in each place, Diane Grams presents and analyzes the different kinds of networks of interest and support that sustain the making of art outside of the limelight. And she introduces us to the various individuals-from cutting-edge artists to collectors to municipal planners-who work together to develop their communities, honor their history, and enrich the experiences of their neighbors through art. Along with its novel insights into these little examined art worlds, Producing Local Color also provides a thought-provoking account of how urban neighborhoods change and grow.Art and societyIllinoisChicagoArtistsSocial networksIllinoisChicagoArtistsIllinoisChicagoSocial conditionsEthnic artIllinoisChicagoMarginality, SocialIllinoisChicagoSociology, UrbanIllinoisChicagoSocial sciencesNetwork analysisArt and societyfast(OCoLC)fst00815432ArtistsSocial conditionsfast(OCoLC)fst00817620Ethnic artfast(OCoLC)fst00915921Manners and customsfast(OCoLC)fst01007815Marginality, Socialfast(OCoLC)fst01009156Pilsen (Chicago, Ill.)Social life and customsBronzeville (Chicago, Ill.)Social life and customsRogers Park (Chicago, Ill.)Social life and customsart, community, rogers park, pilsen, bronzeville, neighborhoods, chicago, ethnicity, race, culture, african american, hispanic, ethnography, blues, blackness, marginalization, urban, activism, legitimacy, aesthetics, sociology, middle class, gentrification, privilege, innovation, landmarks, empowerment, network, restoration, subjectivity, gender, diversity, murals, space, nonfiction, history, museum, whitewashing.Art and societyArtistsSocial networksArtistsSocial conditions.Ethnic artMarginality, SocialSociology, UrbanSocial sciencesNetwork analysis.Art and society.ArtistsSocial conditions.Ethnic art.Manners and customs.Marginality, Social.306.4/70977311Grams Diane1957-1598208MiAaPQMiAaPQMiAaPQBOOK9910827215803321Producing local color3935177UNINA
