黑料不打烊

Stylized depictions of wild horses, landscapes, figures, angels, boats and musicians are repeated over and over throughout the works, creating a common motif that is woven throughout the exhibition.

Last year ended on an extraordinary note, with the Art Institute-led Panafrica series of exhibitions filling spaces around the city.

Realist painter David Kroll鈥檚 work transports us into a world of his own creation鈥攁s almost photoreal as these images appear to be, they are completely fabricated by the brushes of an accomplished painter.

Zolla/Lieberman Gallery is pleased to announce the opening of the Chicago gallery season with a solo exhibition featuring the work of renowned Chicago artist Riva Lehrer. The Monster Studio will be on view from September 6 to October 12, 2024.

The artist has long been fighting for people with disabilities or marginalized identities, with sincerity, courage, and fierce love for the monsters in us all.

About a decade ago, Riva Lehrer began creating a body of work called 鈥淭he Risk Pictures,鈥� a refutation of the traditional relationship between artist and subject, the disproportionate power dynamic between one who looks and one who is looked at.

Zolla/Lieberman Gallery proudly presents an exhibition celebrating the life and work of Vera Klement (1929 - 2023), one of Chicago's most distinguished figures in contemporary art.

It鈥檚 inevitable that any curious pedestrians wandering into Zolla/Lieberman Gallery won鈥檛 immediately notice the group exhibit 鈥淪urprise,鈥� seeing as its disjoint small-scale works hidden in the easy-to-miss Office Gallery are dwarfed by Vera Klement鈥檚 Main Gallery gravitas.

Born in 1929, in the Free City of Danzig (now Gd谩nsk, Poland), a city-state in Germany, Vera Klementovna Schapiro grew up in the town of Zoppot (now Sopot, Poland). 

Rhonda Gates spent her formative years between rural southwest Michigan and a small town in northwestern Missouri.

Dennis Lee Mitchell was born in Larned, Kansas, where he spent much of his childhood exploring the outdoors.

In Lorraine Peltz鈥檚 current exhibition at Zolla/Lieberman, nostalgia is king. The show is rife with motifs that both enchant and reference bygone days.

Lora Fosberg is a Chicago-based artist whose work strives to represent the now, in whatever form it takes. Specializing in painting, printmaking, and sculpture, Fosberg鈥檚 work has been exhibited nationally and internationally.

Lorraine Peltz's paintings, photographs, and works on paper examine the ideas of memory, place, and identity 鈥� particularly in relation to women.

William Conger's unique paintings represent an on-going investigation of abstraction that subtly fuses figural and landscape references to a vocabulary of irregular geometric forms.
