Chicago artist Lucca Colombelli founded Povos in 2020 as an online gallery. After a run of successful pop-up projects, Povos moved to its first physical space on Milwaukee Avenue in late 2021, and later to a larger gallery in Chicago’s West Town. In 2024, Povos partnered with artist and gallerist Winston Guo, founder of W. Gallery, leading to the opening of Povos Downtown. This expansion allows Povos to open 10 exhibitions per year. Since its founding, Povos has produced 36 exhibitions featuring more than 160 unique artists.&nbsp; Povos amplifies the voices of emerging and early-career artists, focusing on unique, surreal, and politically engaged narratives. The gallery now aims to build its international platform, supporting artists committed to exploring deep and timeless truths. Member New Art Dealers Alliance (NADA).
