Hairy Who? 1966-1969
Stephanie Koch Media
111 South Michigan Avenue
Chicago, IL 60601
The Art Institute of Chicago
The Jean and Steven Goldman Prints and Drawings Galleries (125-101)
Hairy Who? 1966-1969
From 1966 to 1969, the Hairy Who, an artist-organized exhibition group, produced imaginative
and experimental work and devised novel installation and promotional strategies to display it.
The group gathered local and national attention, transforming the artistic landscape of Chicago
and influencing subsequent generations of artists around the world.
The Hairy Who consisted of six artists: Jim Falconer (born 1943), Art Green (born 1941), Gladys
Nilsson (born 1940), Suellen Rocca (born 1943), and Karl Wirsum (born 1939). As young
graduates of the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, all shares a penchant for drawing and
are now widely known for the graphic for the artists, in all media.
These galleries present the group’s works on paper, mostly drawings that did not appear in their
six historical exhibitions (shown in galleries 268 and 271-73). The display also featured a vast
array of the artists’ collaborative posters, and materials related to the production of these
multiples.
Of Particular interest is a set of lithographic printing plates and uncut press sheets made in the
process of producing their 1968 comic book catalogue Smoke Hairy Who. These sheets have
never been exhibited before. The informal, experimental, ephemeral, and playful potential of
drawing and print media played a crucial role in both the artistic process of these artists and the
ways in which they circulated their work.
If no artist names are listed for a work, it was produced collaboratively by all the members of the
Hairy Who.
The exhibition continues in gallery 271-73.
Hairy Who? 1966-1969 is part of Art Design Chicago, an initiative of the Terra Foundation or
American Art exploring Chicago’s art and design legacy, with presenting partner, The Richard
H. Driehaus Foundation.
This exhibition is funded by the Terra Foundation for American Art.
Major support for this exhibition is also provided by an anonymous donor, Robert J Burford, the
Kemper Educational and Charitable Fund, and Kathy and Chuck Harper.
Additional support is contributed by Mark and Judy Bednar, the Morton International exhibition
Fund, and Deborah Lovely.
