EXPO Chicago is Back at Navy Pier for 9th Edition

Returning in-person this week, EXPO CHICAGO, the international exposition of contemporary & modern art, will be hosting its ninth annual edition at Navy Pier’s Festival Hall. Open through April 10, the fair brings together 140 leading galleries, from 25 countries and 65 cities, including Kavi Gupta, David Klein Gallery, Bernard Jacobson Gallery, Tang Contemporary Art, Kasmin, P.P.O.W., and Jessica Silverman.

Included in the core programs is /Dialogues, an on-site panel composed of art world leaders, like the Poetry Foundation and the School of the Art Institute of Chicago. Kate Sierzputowski, Director of Programming, said this edition will be the first time since 2019 the fair will be in person, “and the incredible range and depth of the core programs reflect this built energy and enthusiasm.” Panels include notable names like Dr. Maria Rosario Jackson of the National Endowment of the Arts, curator Jamillah James, and Koyo Kouoh of Zeitz Museum of Contemporary Art Africa in Cape Town.
