In this collective listening session, experience an anecdotal retelling of How Chicago! Imagists 1960s & 70s through sound and storytelling, shaped by the musical choices of Rose Dagul, Haseeb Iqbal and others. Each has compiled a set of tracks, presented as an ‘audio tour’. Together these form personal responses to the art works on show in the exhibition, used to explore thematics of humour, vernacular culture, friendship and collaboration that run throughout the Imagists’ oeuvre.
