  • The artists re-framing Chicago | Far Flung with Saleem Reshamwala

    The Bean needs to move over — there's a new art movement in Chicago, and it's led by artists who are completely reimagining how residents think about the spaces around them. Join Far Flung host Saleem Reshamwala on a bold, creative and winding road trip to witness the power of place-based art. From abandoned homes that turn into artwork when they are painted in colors rooted in Black culture, to multimedia projects that examine segregation and connect people who live on opposite sides of the city, stimulate your soul with ideas that flow from the heartland. 

    Far Flung is another podcast from the TED Audio Collective. For more, find Far Flung wherever you get your podcasts.
