This year at EXPO CHICAGO, Northern Trust is hosting an intimate conversation with three female pioneers who are pushing the bounds of creativity. Steph Wagner, Northern Trust Director of Women and Wealth, will lead a thoughtful conversation with three women creating a ripple effect in the art world. From building the largest art restoration firm in North America to challenging auction house norms with NFTs to transforming communities with the power of color, we will explore how these innovators found their passion and are channeling it into a source of positive change.
This panel event will be held on April 8, 2022 from 9:00 AM to 12:00 PM CT. You can register for the event here: Trailblazing Women in Art (ntrsevents.com)
The Conservation Center is excited to return to THE INTERNATIONAL EXPOSITION OF CONTEMPORARY & MODERN ART for our 9th year. EXPO CHICAGO returns for a four-day event (April 7 - 10) taking place at historic Navy Pier, featuring more than 140 of the world’s leading art galleries. This fair draws visitors from all over and continues to demonstrate Chicago as an important destination in the art world. As we have for the past nine years, The Center is proud to serve as EXPO CHICAGO’s exclusive art conservation and custom framing provider. Our conservators will also be on-call and on-site to assist dealers and galleries whose pieces have sustained damage related to transportation and handling.
Moving forward, the exposition will be presented annually in April, announcing April 13-16, 2023 and April 11-14, 2024 as dates for the 10th and 11th editions at Navy Pier. Over the next several months, EXPO CHICAGO will be actively working with global partners and Chicago’s renowned hospitality community to prepare for next year.
The city of Chicago has proudly hosted a global contemporary and modern art exposition for nearly forty years and serves as the site of the first international art fair in the Americas. Since its inception, EXPO CHICAGO has remained dedicated to supporting local, regional, and international arts communities, with strong regional support throughout the Greater Midwest, both US coasts, and maintained a growing international commitment from Europe, Asia, and Latin America.
