Well it has been a couple of weeks since the Art Chicago weekend extravaganza and the results are in, as one might say.

Shepard Fairey installation in the lobby.

• My take on Art Chicago is posted on ArtSlant.

• Joel Kuennen finds some highlights in the British galleries presenting artwork.
• Steve Ruiz spots the trends at the fair.
• I join with the Bad at Sports crew of Claudine Isé, Dan Gunn, and Duncan MacKenzie, to discuss Art Chicago in a podcast you can download. (We also talk about a seeming return to early modernist painting, lucky you!)
• Karen Archey writes on Artnet.com about the Art Chicago fairs.
• Damien James writes about Art Chicago online and in print for Newcity.
• And Lauren Viera gets some interesting quotes in her article for the Chicago Tribune.
