Summary:
"For decades now, the story of art in America has been dominated by New York. Chicago, on the other hand...well, people here just get on with the work of making art. Art in Chicago is a magisterial account of the long history of Chicago art, from the rupture of the Great Fire in 1871 to the present, to Manierre Dawson, László Moholy-Nagy and Ivan Albright to Chris Ware, Anne Wilson, and Theaster Gates. The first single-volume history of art and artists in Chicago, the book - in recognition of th e complexity of the story it tells - doesn't follow a single continuous trajectory. Rather, it presents an overlapping sequence of interrelated narratives that together tell a full and nuanced, yet wholly accessible history of visual art in the city. The result is an unprecedentedly inclusive and rich tapestry, one that reveals Chicago art in all its variety and vigor - and one that will surprise and enlighten even the most dedicated fan of the city's artistic heritage. Part of the Terra Foundation for American Art's year-long Art Design Chicago initiative, bringing major arts events to venues throughout Chicago in 2018, Art in Chicago is a landmark publication, a book that will be the standard account of Chicago art for decades to come."--Provided by publisher.
