The Swami Vivekananda's speech to the World's Parliament of
Religions in Chicago in 1893 is the centerpiece of Indian artist
Jitish Kallat's new work, Public Notice 3. The installation went on
view at the Art Institute of Chicago on September 11, 2010, exactly
108 years after Vivekananda delivered his groundbreaking address
calling for an end to "bigotry and fanaticism." The text of the
speech appears on the risers of the Art Institute of Chicago's
Grand Staircase where it is illuminated in the five colors-red,
orange, yellow, blue, and green-designated by the United States
Homeland Security Advisory System to signify threat levels. This
companion book, which documents the installation, is the first
full-scale exploration of Kallat's work published by a North
American institution. Along with an interview with the artist,
essays contextualize Public Notice 3 within the space of the
installation and evaluate Kallat's oeuvre within an international
context. Distributed for the Art Institute of Chicago Exhibition
Schedule: The Art Institute of Chicago (09/11/10-09/11/11)
