Figurism: Narrative and Fantastic Figurative Art from the Illinois State Museum Collection
This exhibition brings together historical and contemporary artwork of more than fifty artists that emphasizes the power and the range of the narrative and expressive figure in Midwest art. Rather than attempting to define a regional figurative tradition, the exhibition shows how ‘figurism’ has endured and evolved into pluralistic, eclectic, and highly individualized expressions. Organized by Doug Stapleton, Assistant Curator, ISM Chicago Gallery. Presented during ISM Lockport Gallery’s 25th Anniversary year. Click to Press Release for more information.
Exhibition runs from October 30, 2012 through April 19, 2013.
