“Cabin
of the Sublime – Or Not” is a
two-week residency focused on
refection and critical
thinking. A space has been
built for artists to reflect,
contemplate, and muse. An
intimate cabin awaits you, a
space that calls for your
thoughts, not data from the
web, nor impressions from
critics, curators, or
collectors – just a place
designed for your
voice to flourish.

LiveBox
came into its own in 2006,
initially envisioned as an
outlet for video. Frustrated by
the meager showing of video art
in Chicago, as compared to NY,
London, and Berlin, we saw an
opening LiveBox could fill. As
LiveBox grew, working with
numerous artists locally and
internationally, our interests
evolved. New Media, alternative
sound, performance, and the
cross-pollination of multiple
disciplines became our passion.
We championed projects that were
marginalized, due to their
non-commercial status.
Last year LiveBox produced the
thrilling series “Subtitles”
that brought together
alternative music, authors, and
video artists, creating hybrid
performances every 3 rd
Friday at Three Walls in
Chicago.
This
year we have a new focus.
After years of curating
exhibitions and happenings, we
are now committing our
energies to the dynamics of
creating art, specifically
focusing on the process of
critical thinking and sustained
resolve.
