Kerry Cardoza will continue writing about socially engaged artists and collectives based in Chicago, with a focus on art practices on the city’s South and West Sides—areas of historical disinvestment, where art projects are often ignored by the news and cultural outlets.
Kerry Cardoza is a journalist, critic, and editor at the Chicago Reader and an organizer with the Chicago News Guild and the National Writers Union. Her practice considers how art writing impacts the historical record and focuses on artists and communities that have been historically underrepresented in legacy media.
