Coverage of NeoCon Coverage

Here in Chicago, we often like to have a chip on our shoulder, that people don’t think we’re as important or as cultured as New York or Los Angeles. So we shrug a bit and ask “Why doesn’t anyone treat NeoCon as a big of a deal as all your Basels or your miscellaneous Biennials?” But that’s just the defeatist attitude that should not be accepted around here. What’s more, it’s just not true, because there are lots of people offering up coverage, including some by Core77, and, so far our favorite of the bunch, 3rings, who has a whole batch of “Live at NeoCon” posts, filled to the electronic brim with all the new chairs and sofas and weird uni-color mannequins from the Harrington College of Design. If you’re not in the Chicagoland area, where NeoCon is running down at the Merchandise Mart until, well, the end of today, we highly recommend a visit to 3rings for a quickie virtual tour. If you are in Chicago for the big event, we recommend hitting up Metropolis for all of their annual advice on where to eat and drink while you’re in our wonderful, wonderful city.
