As part of a gallery Stephen Knudsen highlights Corbett vs. Dempsey, a gallery that specializes in Chicago painting.
Three Chicago painters are discussed in the post including Art Green, "one of the six renowned Hairy Who artists," Eve Garrison (1903-2003), a WPA artist who "cajoled security guards into letting her into their buildings to get into rooms and onto rooftops to paint views she absolutely had to have," and Robert Barnes, a boxer whose "painting career soon eclipsed the boxing career."
