To Do in Milwaukee, February 9

The Paper Boat Boutique, in Milwaukee, Wisconsin, presents an impressive twofer: Installations by Kate Bingaman (“Obsessive Consumption: Thanks for Shopping”) and Stephanie Syjuco (“Everything Must Go (Grey Market)”.

Impressively, both artists will be on hand at the gallery for the opening Friday night. I happened to be chatting with Paper Boat owner Faythe Levine yesterday, and she mentioned that the two have never met in person, so this is quite a coup. I gather it’s about two degrees in Milwaukee right now, but, still, if you happen to be there, this is clearly the scene to make.

More on Bingaman in this Consumed column.

More on Syjuco’s “Everything Must Go (Grey Market)” at her site. (And more on her famous Counterfeit Crochet project here at Counterfeit Chic.)

Dress warmly, y’all.
