EXPO Chicago 2024


Unbeknownst to me, I attended this year's EXPO Chicago art show the same day that Faith Ringgold passed away. So I will start this post with some pictures I took of her work at ACA Galleries' booth.




This installation by Voluspa Jarpa is made of declassified documents from the CIA about some of the things they did in Latin America between 1948 and 1993.



 
Here are some other artworks that caught my eye. As always, I try to link to the artists and their galleries whenever possible, but occasionally I may have missed something.

This year's show was incredibly inspiring and I look forward to seeing what's in store for next year.
