In commemoration of PATRON’s 10th anniversary, we are proud to announce a group exhibition, a person chosen, named, or honored… titled after the Webster’s Dictionary definition of a “patron.”

On view from January 24 through March 7, 2026, the exhibition celebrates the collector/artist/gallery relationships which have been formative for the growth and prosperity of the gallery, and reflective of the strength and vibrancy of the Chicago arts community at large.

Uniting nearly one hundred key artworks acquired from PATRON over the past ten years, the exhibition is intended to acknowledge the growth of individual artist’s practices, and act as a time capsule of the exhibitions, projects, and conversations that marked the last decade. a person chosen, named, or honored… celebrates the individuals, and networks of Chicago that have shaped our history, our present, and our future.
