Synovate hosts 'Faces Places Spaces' exhibit to showcase the work of up-and-coming local artists


6 December 2006

CHICAGO — International market research company Synovate is lending its blank office walls free to seven up-and-coming local artists.

'Faces Places Spaces' showcases oils, sculpture and photography by Nick Ehrmann, Joseph Gagnepain, Mike Jovanovic, Miriam Kravis, Linda Kollacks, Ivan Lo and Mark Mazzola.

The exhibition runs until June 6, 2007 at the Synovate offices at 222 South Riverside Plaza.

"Offering our premises for free to feature the works of emerging artists is one small way to give back to the arts community of Chicago," says Alicia Kan, Synovate's global head of communications.

"We are continuously on the lookout for artists who need free, alternative space to showcase their works and build their portfolios.

All works of art will be available for purchase by the public.
