SUMMARY:Photographing the Salt Shed: The Intersection of Art and Labor
DESCRIPTION:Originally constructed in 1929\, the Morton Salt Company Warehouse Complex is a familiar and beloved Chicago Landmark along Elston Avenue near Goose Island. For decades\, its enormous hand-painted sign has captivated people traveling along Interstate I-90. As times changed\, the property was no longer used for salt storage and processing. Sandra Steinbrecher’s new photography book\, The Salt Shed\, chronicles the building’s remarkable transformation into a stunning music venue. \nJoin the CAC for an enlightening panel discussion on the Salt Shed’s redevelopment\, history and working-class roots. Joining Sandra are Daniel John Majerowicz\, the plumbing foreman for the project\, and Paul Durica\, Director of Exhibitions at the Chicago History Museum and author of the book’s history essay. The conversation is moderated by Heidi Stevens\, a Chicago writer\, speaker and nationally syndicated columnist\, who wrote the book’s foreword. \nCopies of The Salt Shed will be on sale at the CAC Design Store before and after the program and there will be a short book signing following the panel discussion.
