The stories of art and design in Chicago often take second place to the city’s history as a commercial center and its lauded tradition of architecture.

Painters, sculptors, photographers, and ceramicists have forged their own paths here; muralists, curators, and students have fostered communities through their art; graphic designers, commercial directors, and typeface designers have innovated within their fields, all while working to meet the demands of a client.
