What is Studio Chicago?

Studio Chicago is a yearlong collaborative project that focuses on the artist's studio.Through exhibitions, talks, publications, tours, and research, participating organizations will celebrate the working artist and reveal their sites of creative production from historical and contemporary perspectives.

With concepts ranging from the "studio as muse," "virtual studios," "street as studio,"and "gallery as studio," Studio Chicago invites participation from artists and the art-curious, beginning with Chicago Artists Month in October 2009, and an Artists at Work Forum panel at the Chicago Cultural Center.

Posts from guest bloggers (artists, curators, and other Studio Chicago participants) coming soon!
