Deep State

Deep State

Exhibition and ongoing one on one performance piece at the new Pirsig Project space.

After eleven years of running the Shoebox Gallery and a three year hiatus, artist and curator Sean Smuda is pleased to announce: Pirsig Projects, a new venture on the same block. The gallery is to the left of 734 E Lake St in a storefront window generously donated by the Pain Relief Centers.

Pirsig Projects honors the author, and native Minneapolitan, Robert Pirsig (1928-2017). His novel Zen and the Art of Motorcycle Maintenance was written in the Roberts Shoes building where the gallery is housed.

Starting immediately, there will be an ongoing performance participation series: Deep State. Every weekday until 7 PM (by appointment), participants are encouraged to share stories of Chicago and Lake St; these will be incorporated into one-on-one performances. The exhibition Deep State will run concurrently. RSVP pirsigprojects@gmail.com
