Blurb: Please join us for this special event with Jeanette Andrews, the magician and artist. Jeanette will present pieces from her performance repertoire, and then be joined in conversation with IRCPL’s director, Professor Matthew Engelke, before taking questions from the audience. A lifelong, full-time sleight of hand magician, Jeanette has been an Affiliate of the metaLab at Harvard University and artist-in-residence at the Institute of Art and Olfaction. Her work has been commissioned by the Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago and for the Quebec City Biennial. Come experience what Chicago Magazine has called “whip-smart work” that’s “intimate, mysterious, and enthralling to its end.”
