If you are in the Chicago area, you can find art pieces by two Just Seeders - Erik Ruin and myself, Favianna - at the COPY JAM coming on July 30th to Chicago! Its being organized by the awesome blog, PRINTERESTING. This is one of more cooler art show concepts I have run into recently. I love the idea of using an old copy machine to reproduce work. It's great to see how folks can interact with the artwork by taking copies of it.

This Summer, PRINTERESTING wants to meet our readers in the Windy City! On Friday July 30, we will host an encore performance of our Copy Jam! at the Printers' Ball at Luddington Building in beautiful, downtown Chicago, IL. The Ball is co-sponsored by Poetry magazine as well as the Center for Book and Paper Arts at Columbia College and the Student Affairs Offices at Columbia College. Because the Printers' Ball has its roots in the literary world, we asked all participating artists to give us work that incorporates text in some way.
