Seven Three Split presents new works by Jim Trainor (Chicago)

depicted in a forgotten anthropology book, DEMA by Jan van Baal.
The series runs under the collective title SUN SHAMES HEADHUNTING

the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. His live action film “The
Magic Kingdom” is currently screening in the Whitney Biennial

comics, "The Man from Opeko" at 9pm.

of the Glasgow contemporary art scene. His work has exhibited at
Transmission Gallery, The Glasgow Project Room, Tramway, Grazer
Kunstverein, (Graz, Austria) and Hallwalls cont. art center, (Buffalo,
