Chicago Gallery Info
Here are a few galleries that I visited when I was in Chicago recently. the first group is in the more commercial area, but seemed like our various work had a potential fit.
This is a nice little gallery, specializing in works on paper. Very small intimate space, nicely organized.

Some of the most amazing high craft/art glass works. Very beautiful from all over the world. This is one to see, just to see the work, not that any of our work would fit here
These next three were on the west side and were more along the lines of the Secret Show Series, The Fugitive, Zeitgeist and could be the most promising for some sort of group exhibit

More is More
Another show at the Lexington Art League with no entry fee... Jason aren't you in a show there now? Actually they have an open call for proposals too! Maybe we should try to send our images for a group show.
More is More examines a common tendency towards multiples and repetition in contemporary art. Our love and worship of multiples takes on many forms, including both repeating objects and images. Are we responding to an influence from industry, technology, materialism and consumerism? Or is this exponential growth from a more abstract desire or compulsion? Regardless where the pattern originated, these serial acts have profound implications about the society that created them. This national juried exhibition offers artists’ exploring the concept of multiples, repetition or abundance, in any media, a chance to exhibit the results. LAL invites artists to openly and creatively interpret this theme.
