From September 10 to 17 there'll be a video installation of the Soundsuits on the corner of South Michigan Avenue and 23rd Street every evening starting at 8 PM. A pop-up shop featuring items like prints and T-shirts inspired by the suits (but not the suits themselves, which can cost several thousand dollars) opens from 8 to 10 PM on September 10, with a Vogue-signing by Cave from 9:30 to 10, and continues nightly from 6 to 9 PM.
Nick Cave's work is being featured in the September issue of Vogue magazine via an 8 page spread and it's interesting to say the least. To get some background on his work it's important to watch some of these videos:

Wake up call to all artist in the South Loop! Please contact the open retail spots on Michigan Ave to set-up shop (for FREE or at least pay for the electricity bill). Team up with another artist (photograph, clothes, etc..) Most owners will be open for you to use until they find someone willing to pay for the retail spot. This is a great win-win situation. Really trying to bring positive attention to the area and hopefully get the artist to create a nice district for themselves.
I thought Nick Cave was a musician...
I also thought it was going to be Nick Cave sans Bad Seeds. I'd have gone to that.
