Chicago Designer Debuts Paint on Print Collection Saturday - $500 Art Giveaway

TYPE HOUSE DESIGN EXHIBITION | OPEN RECEPTION Gallery of Iconic Chicago Architecture Paint on Prints & GIVEAWAY

Local designer Jesus Corral debuts his exhibition via paint on print at the TYPE HOUSE open reception on Saturday, May 13. The collection features his popular photography of Chicago architecture, hand-painted with expert typography.

“This exhibition is a culmination from different pieces of my design world into a single expression,” Corral said. “This is also a new experiment in analog design production, versus the entirely digital approach I have become accustomed to.”

The TYPE HOUSE collection captures the angles, colors and spirit of urban Chicago through Ink and Acrylic on 24x30, 310g Photo Rag. Each reception guest will be entered to win one of Corral’s original design pieces titled “Temples,” a breathtaking view from the Hancock 360 Observation deck, valued at $500.

“I enjoy being able to produce work that I like, and being able to share that with the people I care about and the city I admire,” Corral said.

The open reception will take place at the Swedish Snus Pop-Up Shop in Lincoln Park, a community-focused pop up that serves as a public gathering space and shared workplace. Event will also feature music by Nick Castle and Eli Saucedo.
