101 featuring Anne Elizabeth Moore

101 is a monthly lecture series organized by Homeroom in partnership with youmethemeverybody (a Chicago arts and music podcast). Each event features a different speaker who, in open dialogue with the audience, will give a short talk about not just what they do, but how and why they do it. Occasionally, 101 speakers also discuss other arts and culture makers that inspire and influence them. 101 takes place the second Monday of each month at the Hungry Brain (2319 W. Belmont) from February through May.

Anne Elizabeth Moore is the author of Unmarketable: Brandalism, Copyfighting, Mocketing, and the Erosion of Integrity (The New Press, 2007), and Hey Kidz, Buy This Book: A Radical Primer on Corporate and Governmental Propaganda and Artistic Activism for Short People (Soft Skull, 2004). Co-editor and publisher of now-defunct Punk Planet, founding editor of the Best American Comics series from Houghton Mifflin, Moore teaches at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago when she’s not traveling the globe lecturing on freedom of speech issues. Recently, Moore mounted two single-person exhibitions of her conceptual art, has been the subject of two documentary films, and her work has appeared on the radio program Snap Judgment and in the Progressive, truthout.org, and the Boston Phoenix.

Anne will be presenting LADYDRAWERS: The Thrilling World of Female Cartoonists and the Underthings They are Expected to Draw.
