Deborah Doering was invited to make a presentation to the National Art Educators Association Illinois Student Chapter about DOE Projekt's art action, "JUST US AT WORK." There were several other presentations by art educators and art students in the School of the Art Institute's ballroom on Thursday, April 25. It was a time for sharing various techniques and strategies for engaging students and the general public with a variety of art practices. We thank the NAEA and the SAIC Art Education Department for organizing such a professional opportunity to network.
DOEprojekts is a socially-engaged cultural practice directed by Deborah Adams Doering and Glenn N. Doering. Please go to www.DOEprojekts.org to view our Experiences, Artifacts, Participation, and Contact Information.

"What I Want to Say: Coreforms and Keywords" — Keiskamma embroidered tapestries arrive, and we put keyword 'Movement' front and center
"What I Want to Say: Coreforms and Keywords" continues at the "PopUp Loop" Gallery Space at 23 East Madison in Chicago until Sunday, April 21. "Movement" is one of the Keywords of our art action. Coreforms include the zero (circle), the one (vertical line), the dash (horizontal line) and the tilde (swash mark). Today, we stenciled the word "Movement" on the front of the gallery space window which invited the interaction of many pedestrians.
The embroidered tapestries from the Keiskamma Art Project, Hamburg, South Africa, arrived yesterday, and we hung these artworks and several others in our temporary gallery space. We look forward to our vernissage on Thursday, April 18, from 5 to 8pm.

"What I Want to Say — Coreforms and Keywords" Neopointillist Coreforms Give "Pop" to PopUp Loop Space. Today, we consider 'Overlap' as a possible keyword.
"What I Want to Say: Coreforms and Keywords" continues at the "PopUp Loop" Gallery Space at 23 East Madison in Chicago until Sunday, April 21. One Coreform of the installation/art action is the "dot" or "single stich" or tiny "mark" that is made by the artist. As artists participating in the PopUp, we consider how each of these marks creates an "overlapping" of form and concept. We overlap our ideas and images with each other, in a collaborative effort, and we also overlap our forms in relationship to artists of the past, such as Georges Seurat, who painted one of the most popular works in the Art Institute of Chicago (if not the history of art and culture). "Overlap" is one of the Keywords of our art action.
