The Arts Club of Chicago
January 2020
January 16–February 22, 2020 The Arts Club of Chicago’s 89th Exhibition of Professional Members took place in January and February 2020. The first exhibition of artist members’ work was held in 1916, the same year that The Arts Club was established. This year’s exhibition will feature the work of The Arts Club’s visual artist members, and continues The Arts Club’s long-standing tradition of, and commitment to, furthering the arts. This exhibition included locally, nationally, and internationally esteemed artists, working in a wide variety of media and a breadth of historical influences. The Arts Club of Chicago was founded with the mission to expand the artistic horizons of a public interested in the arts and related activities and maintains its public galleries—‚free of admission, for that purpose. Since its inception, and as a part of its mission, The Arts Club membership has included both professional artists and lay members. Throughout its history, The Arts Club has produced significant exhibitions of artists such as John Baldessari, Constantin Brancusi (installed by Marcel Duchamp), Alexander Calder, Peter Doig, David Hockney, Maya Lin, Chris Ofili, Pablo Picasso, Sigmar Polke, Jackson Pollock, and Auguste Rodin.
