International Invitational
For the third consecutive year, the International Invitational will
showcase a selection of the world's most innovative and influential
galleries. Exhibiting many of the most exciting and important cutting-edge
artists, the International Invitational focuses on a particular spectrum
of current issues and trends electrifying the contemporary art market and
offers Art Chicago visitors a unique, first-hand view of these latest
developments in the realm of contemporary art.
Project Spaces
Also in its third consecutive year, the Project Spaces will offer
exhibiting galleries the opportunity to showcase additional work of a
chosen artist. These customized spaces include installation, video,
performance and other media that would not otherwise be seen in an art
fair booth.
Association of International Photography Art Dealers (AIPAD)
New this year is the collaboration with Art Chicago and the Association of
International Photography Art Dealers (AIPAD). The partnership will add
to the existing important presence of photography at Art Chicago. From
vintage to contemporary work, photography has continued to grow as a

of lectures and panels based on fine art photography will also take place
at Art Chicago as part of this collaboration.
