SoNa Chicago Contemporary Art is proud to host the culminating exhibition of the&nbsp;Industry of the Ordinary (IOTO) Summer Residency 2025, opening Saturday,&nbsp;September 6th, and running through&nbsp;September 27th, 2025. Now in its&nbsp;eighth year, IOTO's enduring and ever-evolving program continues to offer a platform for critical experimentation and bold expression by emerging artists.The 2025 residency expands its reach with a three-week public exhibition, offering viewers an extended opportunity to engage with the fresh, challenging, and diverse perspectives produced over the course of this unique summer program. For the first time, the show will take place at&nbsp;SoNa Chicago, creating a new context for these artists to consider the economic and spatial realities of exhibiting work professionally — including the opportunity to offer work for sale.At the opening on Saturday, September 6th from 5–8pm, all 15 residents will activate the full site of the exhibition address - moving beyond the traditional white cube to engage both interior and exterior spaces. Visitors can expect a mix of time-based, performative, and spatial interventions alongside two- and three-dimensional works, continuing the Residency’s longstanding commitment to diverse and experimental practices.An additional artist walkthrough will take place on Saturday, September 13th from 5–7pm, offering deeper insight into the artists’ processes and the evolution of the work.At its core, the IOTO Summer Residency is rooted in the belief that&nbsp;art has the unique power to bring diverse voices together, revealing new dimensions of what it means to be human. The program is structured around intensive studio development, open discussion, and critical inquiry — with weekly meetings and mentorship from&nbsp;Industry of the Ordinary, whose own practice challenges the boundaries between the personal and the public, the ordinary and the extraordinary.Housed primarily at IOTO’s studio at&nbsp;Mana Contemporary&nbsp;in Chicago’s Pilsen neighborhood, the residency invites participants to develop new work across a variety of media while engaging in deep conversations around process, form, value, and impact. This year's cohort reflects the spirit of the program: intellectually curious, materially adventurous, and socially aware. Their work, shaped through both individual exploration and group dialogue, invites us to consider not only artistic outcomes but also the systems of meaning and connection through which those outcomes arise.Since its founding in 2015, the IOTO Summer Residency has cultivated a space for radical questioning and creative rigor. This year’s exhibition continues that tradition, inviting visitors to witness the unfolding of new artistic voices engaged in both&nbsp;personal narrative and public discourse&nbsp;— and to be part of a conversation that extends well beyond the gallery walls.Contact: Laura Botwinick, Phone: (773) 513-4436, Email:&nbsp;<a style="color: rgb(150, 96, 125);" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="mailto:lkbotwinick@gmail.com" target="_blank">lkbotwinick@gmail.com</a>&nbsp;Gallery website:&nbsp;<a style="color: rgb(150, 96, 125);" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://sonachicagoart.com/" target="_blank">https://sonachicagoart.com/</a>&nbsp;Facebook &amp; Instagram: @sonachicagoartIndustry of the Ordinary (Adam Brooks, 773-301-7162,&nbsp;<a style="color: rgb(150, 96, 125);" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="mailto:adambrooks9@gmail.com" target="_blank">adambrooks9@gmail.com</a>; Mathew Wilson,&nbsp;312-927-8855,&nbsp;<a style="color: rgb(150, 96, 125);" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="mailto:mathewcwilson98@yahoo.com" target="_blank">mathewcwilson98@yahoo.com</a>)<a style="color: rgb(150, 96, 125);" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="http://www.industryoftheordinary.com/" target="_blank">www.industryoftheordinary.com</a> Image: Akemi Nomo,&nbsp;LifeTime ( 人间，人間 )Photo credit: Industry of the Ordinary

Industry of the Ordinary Summer Residency 2025 Exhibition 

The Art Center Highland Park, in partnership with Oliva Gallery, proudly announces Facades, a powerful new exhibition opening August 8, 2025, that foregrounds three influential voices in contemporary Midwestern art: Nikki Renee Anderson, Aaron Becker, and the late Molly Schiff. Through sculpture, color, and dynamic form, Facades confronts themes of identity, visibility, and public space, inviting audiences to consider how we construct, obscure, and reveal ourselves in a constantly shifting social landscape. These three Chicago-based artists—each rooted in a distinct material language—deliver an experience that is visually compelling and emotionally resonant, shaped by Midwest sensibilities and a commitment to community dialogue. Nikki Renee Anderson, known for her ceramic sculptures and immersive installations, brings a tactile intimacy to the exhibition. Her works challenge static notions of femininity and identity, drawing on personal history to create forms that are at once soft and assertive, playful and deeply psychological. Anderson’s practice reflects a career of national and international acclaim, with exhibitions at the Chicago Cultural Center, Hyde Park Art Center, and the International Museum of Ceramics in Faenza, Italy. A professor and leader in ceramic education, Anderson’s work reclaims the domestic and decorative as spaces of feminist resistance and self-exploration. Aaron Becker engages viewers with a sculptural language that distorts familiarity. Trained in ceramics, Becker constructs imagined environments through abstract form and geometric composition, asking us to examine the energies that shape our perception of place. His work, which often pairs the functional with the conceptual, explores the thresholds between domesticity and disorientation. His installations provoke questions about presence, interiority, and what it means to occupy space. Molly Schiff (1927–2018), a visionary Chicago modernist, rounds out the exhibition with vividly colored paintings that channel emotional immediacy through abstraction. A lifelong creative force who began painting after a career in the garment industry, Schiff earned multiple degrees from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago and exhibited widely across Illinois. Her works exemplify a blend of expressive form, bold palette, and open invitation to interpretive intimacy. She remains a cherished figure in Chicago’s art history and her legacy continues to influence new generations. Together, Anderson, Becker, and Schiff present a multi-generational conversation on form, identity, and the surface tensions that define civic life. Facades is more than an exhibition, it is a reflection on visibility, vulnerability, and the connective power of art in public discourse. Opening Reception: August 8, 2025 | 5:00 PM – 8:00 PM&nbsp; Exhibition Dates: August 8 – September 2025 Note: this exhibition takes place at The Art Center of Highland Park (1957 Sheridan Rd Highland Park, IL 60035) <a style="color: rgb(49, 95, 195);" rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://rkcgwygbb.cc.rs6.net/tn.jsp?f=001pQCTLAZWoLcf8QKJ7bW0UTmQQvLi8QCbGnkKtsql4i6I9ZL64t5o-ClLO30U4qlgbzz1_RMl0TnO4ySsyGSgn5p0R6WKlrHrsVsqKwvj43J5pwb-3qIzuQdxhUrAKrZZeE5lQN-624hOFVumazIUgXhjCn3B9ybpA0oJH7BBUbjNK8knTWgzan41fTzp867IrUp_dYhlprGi3zshErrhVtkvEbFk1r-jYLNoXfuO-1T4w1MaGVWcu38dRLUkgnbQSMKVKwDyfDfky2mTo8On3eMZ4nEXLlOhQ443AHZ73Zx9Tpvau5sDr0_uylojA8TswWV5fJL37D3cj1bKBq8FOFhm93ReWXo-qaAGtYHf84c=&amp;c=IJzV2jz8yvZtX5CTPVPXoMUDippq0o1jIRBZpwu4VeFXp_eCnKxnzg==&amp;ch=kzLhgOqA5aEWuRf34Ovhff1OQt3YOA0ZU-fCxhD596BhhhFEKh0xXw==" target="_blank">Learn more</a>

The annual exhibition highlights paintings, drawings, photography, ceramics, prints, animation, and multimedia work by young artists participating in&nbsp;Hyde Park Art Center’s Teen programs. Each year, Teen programs provide a structured independence that encourages young artists to develop their creative voices, learn new skills, and build relationships in the context of a community art center, where artists of all ages and backgrounds do the same. The exhibition is a testament to these young artists’ evolution and dedication. They have taken on the challenge of expressing perplexed thoughts, feelings, and emotions into individual works of art.&nbsp; So, What Now?&nbsp;is curated by Jules DiGregorio, Exhibitions and Residency Intern, with support from Harley Reid, Teen Programs Coordinator, and Tran Tran, Exhibitions &amp; Residency Manager.&nbsp; Image:&nbsp;Devin Carrillo,&nbsp;She saw me once,&nbsp;2025, Acrylic paint, oil pastel on canvas, 12 x 12 inches

You may have noticed a sign for the Jane Addams Research Center next to the deep red exterior of a two-storey building along Main Street in St. Joseph. This quiet organization was founded by scholars Michael R. Hill and his late life-partner Mary Jo Deegan. Its focus on the historic sociologist, settlement leader, and Nobel Peace Prize winner Jane Addams and her influential network of male and female colleagues has taken many forms, including an expansive collection of artworks resulting from the expertise, training, and inspiration of the art school at the Hull-House social settlement in Chicago (Hull commemorates the name of the home’s original owner). The Hull-House Art School, established by Jane Addams and Ellen Gates Starr, with Enella Benedict as its first director, provided classes and studio space for youngsters and adults alike from 1893 onward to the 1960s. It was an important, but underappreciated, cultural phenomenon in Chicago. In this exhibition, artworks range from functional to fine art and include commemorative medallions, artist-illustrated books and calendars, novels, jewelry, metalwork, fabrics, ceramics, prints, maps, drawings, and paintings. These works — from the late eighteenth to the mid-twentieth century — represent the deep impact contributed by a community art center and highlight the affiliated artists who made them.&nbsp;While some are little known, several artists in the exhibition are prominent in Chicago collections (including the Art Institute of Chicago) and are found in museums, homes, and other repositories throughout the United States. Michael R. Hill has curated the exhibit and is preparing an exhibition catalog. Dr. Hill has served as a docent at the Krasl Art Center and is an astute interdisciplinary scholar who is ever learning and engaging with the arts of Chicago and Southwest Michigan. <a rel="noopener noreferrer" href="https://krasl.org/event/hull-house-exhibition/" target="_blank">Details</a>

The Golden Triangle is proud to present The Future Past: Indian Art Deco 1925-1950 - the first-ever American exhibition of Indian Art Deco furniture. Celebrated for its bold geometry, rich materials, and modern elegance, Art Deco was the world's first global style, debuting at the 1925 Paris Exposition Internationale des Arts Décoratifs. In India, this radical aesthetic fused with tropical influences to create a uniquely "Asian Art Deco" language. Unlike European Art Deco, which relied on wood veneers, Indian artisans built with solid hardwood, giving each piece both strength and tactile allure.

Impressionist artist Gustave Caillebotte (1848–1894)—known and beloved by many Art Institute visitors for his monumental painting&nbsp;Paris Street; Rainy Day—takes center stage in this major exhibition exploring the very personal interests and relationships that shaped his world. Caillebotte was unique among his Impressionist peers. At a time when modernity was synonymous with fashionable young women and new forms of entertainment, he focused instead on a more intimate and individualized sphere: his family and friends, his fellow sportsmen, the bourgeois pedestrians strolling in his neighborhood, and the workers who came to his house or whom he observed in the street. Despite being born into the wealth built by his father, Caillebotte resisted the idleness associated with the leisured class. He was not only an active member of the Impressionist group but also participated in several activities as a high-level amateur, including rowing, gardening, and sailing. In all of his pursuits, Caillebotte gave his all, taking on the role of leader, organizer, and sometimes financier; he also captured these passions in paint, whether documenting the toil of boating, the serenity of tending a plant, or the concentration of a card game. Caillebotte was equally invested in his personal relationships, both familial and non-familial—and again these relationships, especially with the males he interacted with as son, brother, employer, colleague, and friend—are the focus of many of his artworks. One sees in multiple paintings his two brothers and other family members as well as a wide circle of friends, often depicted in Caillebotte’s own home—in a favorite chair, by a recognizable window, or on an often-portrayed sofa. Most intimately, and most unusually for the time, Caillebotte also painted nude men in the privacy of their bath.&nbsp; This exhibition, which opened at the Musée d’Orsay in Paris in October 2024, includes more than 120 works—paintings, works on paper, photographs, and other ephemera from throughout Caillebotte’s career. In addition to recognizable works like&nbsp;Floor Scrapers&nbsp;and the Art Institute’s&nbsp;Paris Street; Rainy Day,&nbsp;the show presents lesser-known but pivotal works like the Musée d’Orsay’s recent acquisition,&nbsp;Boating Party, and the Louvre Abu-Dhabi’s&nbsp;The Bezique Game, as well as many works from private collections that are rarely seen by American audiences.&nbsp; Together, these works open a new window onto Caillebotte—as a complex figure with many interests, as an Impressionist who painted like no other Impressionist, and as an artist who captured his own, very distinct Paris.

South Gallery Audrey Niffenegger is a multifaceted American writer, visual artist, and academic whose work bridges storytelling, printmaking, and book arts. She studied visual art at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago and earned an MFA from Northwestern University’s Department of Art Theory and Practice in 1991. Niffenegger’s artistic practice centers on handmade artist’s books and printmaking. Beginning in the early 1980s, she produced limited-edition works such as&nbsp;The Adventuress&nbsp;and&nbsp;The Three Incestuous Sisters, which combined original etchings with narrative text. These projects established her reputation in the book arts world and were later reproduced in trade editions, bringing her visual storytelling to a wider audience. She has also created graphic works like&nbsp;The Night Bookmobile&nbsp;and&nbsp;Raven Girl, which was adapted into a ballet by the Royal Opera House in London. In 1994, she co-founded the Columbia College Chicago Center for Book and Paper Arts, fostering interdisciplinary approaches to print, paper, and bookmaking. Her prints, drawings, and artist’s books have been exhibited widely and are held in collections such as the Library of Congress, National Gallery of Art, British Library, and the Victoria and Albert Museum. In 2019, she founded Artist Book House, a nonprofit in Chicago dedicated to the creation, teaching, and celebration of book arts. Her imagery often explores themes of time, memory, mortality, and the uncanny, weaving together visual narrative and psychological depth. Niffenegger continues to balance her parallel careers in visual art and fiction, creating work that merges image, narrative, and imagination into singular, multidisciplinary forms.

Gut Symmetry, an exhibition of paintings and prints by Chicago artist Catherine Sollman, opens at OS Projects on August 9, 2025. The exhibition continues through October 11, 2025. OS Projects will host a reception for the artist from 1 – 3 pm on Saturday, August 9. Catherine Sollman uses basic shapes to create abstract forms that refer to the human body or environment, both natural and built. Her work is characterized by precision as well as unconventional color combinations that she often pushes toward garishness in pursuit of a particular vibrational quality. Gut Symmetry comprises two bodies of work: small gouache paintings and monotypes, which are one-of-a-kind prints. The paintings are predicated on a limited set of rules and tools—straightedge, compass, pencil and gouache—and have evolved to occupy an important place in Sollman’s practice. They are an investigation of form, color and relationships as well as an attempt to trigger pulsations between color and shape. Sollman describes them as “a quest for sensation.” While the gouache paintings are created directly and intuitively, the monotypes incorporate an element of chance using ghost prints, migrating motifs and the reuse and reconfiguration of the printed surface or matrix. Their imagery hints at bodily structures, the exchange of matter and the tension between exuberant impulse and the need to withhold. They reflect Sollman’s ongoing interest in exploring print’s capacity to accommodate abstraction, chance, mood and iteration while allowing for formality and humor. Both the gouache paintings and monotype prints in Gut Symmetry function as loci of experimentation for the artist. They are also a meditation on antiquated notions of femininity, impropriety, rightness and order. Within each, Sollman strives to facilitate a type of presence—a small escape, a work that soothes and surprises, a portal to somewhere else. About the Artist Born and raised in Racine, Wisconsin, Catherine Sollman is a printmaker and teaching artist whose practice consists of small-scale abstract works on paper that emphasize geometry and color play. She earned her BFA at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago and continued her studies with Karen Kunc, Terry James Conrad, Katie Baldwin and other notable printmakers. Her work has been exhibited in galleries across the U.S. including the Highpoint Center for Printmaking (Minneapolis, MN), Mixografia (Los Angeles, CA), Print Austin (Austin, TX) and Hyde Park Art Center (Chicago, IL). She was a 2024 Artist-in-Residence at Weir Farm National Historic Park (Wilton, CT) and will be a 2026 Artist-in-Residence at Peninsula School of Art (Fish Creek, WI). Sollman lives and works on Chicago’s West Side. Image: Nicole, Augusta Street by Catherine Sollman, 2025.&nbsp;

Main / Office Galleries Lora Fosberg is an American artist whose multidisciplinary practice spans painting, printmaking, drawing, and sculpture. She received her BFA from the University of Illinois at Urbana–Champaign and her MFA from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago in 1992. Lora Fosberg’s work speaks to the power of form, the capacity of iconography to create a universal language that communicates the banalities and complexities of the human experience. Fosberg’s process is deeply anthropological, bound up in the intricacies and intimacies of human life—memories, emotions, our relationships with others and with nature. Disarming her viewers through familiar imagery and language in her work, often rendered in an accessible, animated manner, with a touch of cheeky humor, Fosberg affords them the space to regress to a particular memory, a moment of understanding, a conflict, an absence, a connection to another person, or to nature.​ Her work has been featured in venues across the Midwest and West Coast including the South Bend Museum of Art, the Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago, the Hyde Park Art Center and international venues in Copenhagen and London. Fosberg’s work is represented in the permanent collections of the Illinois State Museum, Eaton Corporation, and Kirkland &amp; Ellis, as well as numerous private collections. She lives and works in Michigan City, Indiana.

Mac Pierce is concerned with the influence of technology on society and culture, with a special emphasis on the tendencies for technocratic overreach and surveillance to contribute to social decay and violence. His work utilizes 3D printing, coding, video, computer hardware, video game content, and carefully selected text and data, synthesized into a conceptual framework.Given contemporary national and world political trends, Pierce’s work takes on added significance as many of his conceptual approaches have shown to be relevant to the realities of recent current events. In addition to an opening reception, the gallery will be hosting a public Halo CE LAN party (participation reservations required), at which players will participate in a competitive in-person video game event scheduled to run all day long. Sponsored by Bawls Energy. Reservation link is above. Mac Pierce (He/Him) (b. 1993, Seattle, WA) is a Chicago based artist and creative technologist.

Paul Mitchell is an art professor and digital artist living in Illinois. This selection is from a body of work reflecting his interest in climate change, beginning in 2006, with the publication of&nbsp;An Inconvenient Truth&nbsp;by Al Gore. This led to the realization that climate change was connected to global warming, ocean acidification, wildlife extinction, and massive migration of life on the planet. Most recently, his focus has been on mitigation of the problems and suffering caused by climate change. The art is meant to work together, supporting a context of healing our planet.&nbsp;Closing reception and gallery talk: October 23, 7-9pm Wadsworth Family GalleryLewis UniversityOremus Fine Arts CenterOpen 9am-9pm DailyContact Natalie Swain for more information,&nbsp;<a rel="noopener noreferrer" href="mailto:swainna@lewisu.edu" target="_blank">swainna@lewisu.edu</a>

Aesthetics of Power, an exhibition juried by artist Mahwish Chishty, looks closely at how aesthetics can be used to express layered, quietly disruptive ideas. This exhibition features work that surprises, that reveals itself slowly, or that occupies the fragile space where beauty unsettles rather than soothes. Artists in this exhibition reflect on how aesthetic interpretations carry the weight of history, how beauty might obscure or reveal power, and how what is finely wrought can also bear witness. Exhibiting Artists: Parto &amp; Pardis Ahmadpour, Rodrigo Azaola, Jane A Barrow, Rex Cassidy, Kyle Chaput, Lucas Cordes,&nbsp;Vincent Escareno, Morgan Ford Willingham, Tara Sabini, Mack Gingles, Matthew Girson, Briena Harmening, Yuliya Klochan, Roopa Kosuri, Jiselle Ramirez, Sajal Siwakoti, Yaning Xing, Shelly Zhang.
