The Art Institute of Chicago
About
The Art Institute of Chicago, nestled in the heart of the city, is one of the oldest and largest art museums in the United States. Known for its encyclopaedic collection, it spans thousands of years of human creativity from around the world, including masterpieces from every continent. With its prestigious reputation, the Art Institute is revered for both its vast historic collections and its innovative contemporary exhibitions.
While the Art Institute of Chicago’s collection primarily focuses on art from America and Europe, it has also explored works from diverse cultures, including occasional exhibitions featuring Australian Aboriginal art. These exhibitions provide a rare opportunity in the Midwest to engage with the rich traditions and contemporary practices of Aboriginal artists.
