chicago’s graffiti blasters are at it again. this time illegally buffing a commissioned mural by artist Gabriel Villa. the mural depicted 3 police department surveillance cameras (which are common on that block) along with a deer head, a skull and a crucified christ. the mural was on private property on the side of a tavern owned by the mother of Version Fest organizer Edmar.

you can read and listen to more of the story HERE.

since i moved back to the north side i don’t get to go to Manny’s much, but it is my favorite sandwich in town. it’s been open since 1942 and has what i think is the best pastrami in town. stopped there on the way to the Hyde Park Art Center to work on my installation “Lets Do Some Living After We Die”, it’s a 6 month long installation where i will go back every month or so and add to the piece.

on a quest to not eat at Hot Dougs every day i thought id branch out and try a new burger spot that opened up in chicago. Five Guys is about as close as you can get to an In and Out Burger in the midwest (fresh, never frozen meat, idaho potatoes, etc). pretty good food overall, ill definitely add it to the lunch rotation.

i got the traditional cheese burger

while mr. eichhorn got the burger with a hot dog on the side.

Cody Hudson is a Chicago-based artist, also known for his commercial art and graphic design work under the name Struggle Inc. Known for the production of clean, multi-dimensional graphics, his design aesthetic is part urban modernism, and part organic visual deconstruction.

in the mid nineties Cody helped with the design duties at the, then just starting out, graffiti magazine “12oz Prophet”. He also worked on the short lived “The Vapors Project” which focused entirely on the illegal aspects of graffiti.

He has worked on numerous album and cd covers for artists including Mos Def, Diverse, The Cool Kids, Lady Sovereign, Five Deez, The Berg Sans Nipple and Slaraffenland for music labels Chocolate Industries, Quango, Team Love & Hometapes. He has designed, illustrated and art directed for clients such as Stussy, Nike SB, Burton, Sixpack France, Yale University Art Gallery, Wallpaper Magazine, Krooked Skateboards, Budweiser, VW, Bugaboo, SIAM (DJ A-Trak), and Rock Shox. In 2005 Cody reconnected with Allen Benedikt to art direct the publication “Also Known As”.

In addition to commercial projects, In 2006 Cody was commissioned by the City of Chicago Public Art Program to create a permanent installation at the White Sox/35th CTA station as part of the Arts in Transit Program. In 2007 he had his first solo museum show titled “There Ain’t No Bottomless Pit Here, This is Fucking Magic Man, and Were All a Part of it Together” at the Museum of Contemporary Art - Chicago (MCA). His first book of art and design “Save My Life” was published in 2008 by Fifty24sf Gallery.

His graphic work and paintings have been exhibited throughout the US, Europe and Japan including the Museum of Contemporary Art (Chicago), New Image Art (LA), Rocket Gallery (Tokyo), The Reed Space (NYC), The Lazy Dog (Paris), & Andrew Rafacz (Chicago). Cody’s work has also been featured in numerous magazines and publications including idN, Straight No Chaser, Arkitip, Anthem & Juxtapoz.
