artXposium 2.0 is a book chronicling the development of an annual multimedia art experience in the city of West Chicago. The event artXposium is the brainchild of local resident and internationally shown artist Anni Holm and former registrar of the West Chicago City Museum, Brian Reis. Together with assistant organizer Irene Perez, many volunteers, and over sixty artists, they created a three-day event in the former Grobe's True Value store, a large space that lent itself to works ranging from painting, sculpture, and photography to interactive installations and video screenings. The ultimate goal of the 2007 exhibition was to develop an International Artists Residency for West Chicago, a goal that was realized in late summer of 2008 with the arrival of Danish artist Gudrun Hasle.
