West Pullman Branch hosts a Women’s History Month art exhibit in March.
Chicago artist Astrid Fuller, a muralist and oil painter, has painted the Pullman labor strike in tableau form. It features historic personages and workers involved in this deeply significant labor dispute. Another of her paintings is a triptych depicting current forces impinging upon an inner-city neighborhood, using magic realism to inform the subject. Other paintings on exhibit are in the form of abstract expressionism.
