Car Chase is coming to The B.O.B. for ArtPrize!


Car Chase will be installed at The B.O.B., 20 Monroe Ave., Grand Rapids (across from the Van Andel arena) for the Art Prize Competition. It features
figures, flying VW bugs and a Hudson. Tj's flailing, splashing figures seem to have been
impacted by this huge car's momentum. The swarm of suspended bugs harbors a
second threat. Through this moment in time, frozen in stone, Aitken speaks to our current cultural dilemma with the automobile.
Art Prize brings the Holland artist to Grand Rapids as 10 most voter-favored works win prize money. Simple public voter registration will be at select Grand Rapids locations. Voting is online. The city wide competition runs September 23 to October 10.
