Los Cago Open House Bridge of Artistic Goodwill LCOHBAG will be a meeting of artistic minds with the intention of bridging the geographic gap between Los Angeles and Chicago carried out by InCUBATE’s March resident, Michael Bauer. This project will consist of opening the doors to InCUBATE, in the form of an open house 7-10pm Wednesdays and Thursdays during the month of March 2008. This project will operate somewhere between a sales-pitch, motivational speaking engagement, performance, think tank, salon, and a series of discussions regarding dreaming, mind expansion, art production, the role of the artist and the prospects of forging unconventional alliances. Hopefully this gathering can help us challenge conventions of artistic time and space. The ultimate goal is to materialize one specific project which with take place in Los Angeles at the Confederacy of Creative Ephemera, featuring Chicago and Los Angeles based artists.
