Chicago Public Art Group (originally, ''Chicago Muralists Group'') is a non profit cultural organization in Chicago that organizes and promotes creation of community public art. The Group was founded in 1971 and has been involved in the creation of hundreds of artworks in and around the city. Today its "core artists" provide artistic leadership, and the Group manages the production of community based projects, as well as, educates artists and the public in their creation. Several of its recent works have been large bricolage mosaics in city underpasses. ==History== Founded in 1971, the ''Chicago Public Art Group'' began as a cooperative of artists to enhance Chicago communities through the creation of public murals. Concerned with societal relationships to art, the group wanted to establish communication and working creative partnerships between artists and city residents. Muralists William Walker and John Pitman Weber were among the co-founders of what was then called the ''Chicago Muralists Group.'' From the beginning, a focus of the cooperative was turning some of the most neglected of urban spaces into artistic canvasses. It was influenced by the past work of individual artists working in the city. The Group created, ''Fabric of our Lives,'' by Miriam Socoloff and Cynthia Weiss in 1980, lays claim to the earliest community based mosaic in the United States, according to executive director Jon Pounds.
