		<description><![CDATA[By Damien James Riva Lehrer’s art is fundamentally about one thing: the body in the world. Which is not to be reductive. The potential for variation is limitless; how we live in our space and interact with each other, how we are shaped by and how we shape each experience. Lehrer’s most frequently considered variation [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[By Janina Ciezadlo How much do we need to know about the feelings and ideas that give a painter the energy to push a brush around a large canvas? Having just read the new biography &#8221;Joan Mitchell, Lady Painter,&#8221; by Patricia Albers, I now know a great deal about what Joan Mitchell did from day to day. [...]]]></description>

		<description><![CDATA[It’s not the sort of scene anyone can just waltz into. Chicago’s underground ballrooms are organized by and for the African-American transgender community, and although they are essentially dance competitions with esoteric rules, to join one is to grab onto a “tentacle of gang mentality,” says Todd Diederich. He’s been photographing the underground ball scene [...]]]></description>

Fake’s drawings from the “City of Night” series, which are fictional portraits of architectural façades, inspire a little guessing game. “I trust [...]]]></description>

It doesn’t even smell. I know,” Eagles says. In the past, he needed to leave the blood in Tupperware containers to get [...]]]></description>

On September 19, 2002, William Ligue Jr. and his 15-year-old son jumped onto the playing field in Cellular Field (home of the White Sox) and attacked Kansas City Royals first-base-coach Tom Gamboa. Shirtless, out-of-control and under-the-influence, this [...]]]></description>
