Big thank you to Paul Klein for mentioning last weeks show in his recent Huffington Post piece / Artletter on the “Schism” in Chicago Art, and thank you to everyone who made it out to the show. Bernard and Michelle’s work is up for another week or so, to make an appointment to view the exhibition please email info@wot-it-is.com

Sharkhammer in 360 degrees, by Bernard Williams. Loads slowly at first, worth the wait.
Thank you to everyone who made it out to What It Is yesterday for Michelle and Bernard’s exhibition.
We have uploaded photos to flickr of both the exhibition in the front space and Bernard’s hammer in the sculpture garden. Click either image to go to the photoset on flickr. Their show is up to till Dec 20th so if you didn’t get chance to see it at the opening feel free to make an appointment and come check it out, you can do this by emailing info@wot-it-is.com
If you can’t make it to the gallery you could order a catalog of the show. We have three publications to date, chronicling each of our shows thus far, (Andrew Rigsby, Irene Perez and now Michelle Welzen Collazo Anderson and Bernard Williams). Each publication is produced by Lulu. We’re really happy with the books so far, it’s nice to be able to document the work we have shown in this way and reach out to a wider audience in this fashion. We plan to donate a copy of each catalog to the Oak Park library so if you’re in the neighborhood you’ll be able to go to the library and take a look.
We’ll be back after the holidays with a group show of sculpture in Feb. and a two person show with Sabina Ott and Michelle Wasson in March.
Best wishes and happy holidays…. Holly & Tom

In addition to Michelle and Bernard’s show opening today we’re pleased to announce a new component to the What It Is platform… our Permanent Collection. These are works that have been donated or acquired and placed on permanent display. The first piece is by Anni Holm and is titled Private.
