Richard Gray Gallery - Chicago - U.S.A.

.
Founded in Chicago in 1963 and now located both in Chicago and New York, Richard Gray Gallery is one of the leading dealers in modern and contemporary American and European art, with museum as well as private clients worldwide. Offering artworks of exceedingly high quality as well as expert counsel in all areas of the field is almost an obsession. The gallery has a reputation for excellence, integrity and discretion that it continues to earn by providing a high level of service to understandably demanding clients. Collecting art remains a field where the myriad players share a deep appreciation for the profound role that art plays in our culture. This is paramount. The business of art, while founded upon the same principle, is more and more coming to resemble a truly 'big' business with the breathtaking values placed on fine art. While most galleries focus primarily upon artist representation and promotion, Richard Gray Gallery is collector oriented. This means the gallery will assess quality and authenticity, evaluate, exhibit, care for, buy and sell art principally for the benefit of the collector. We believe this is a highly meaningful distinction. Member of the Art Dealer's Association of America and Confédéracion International des Négociants en Oeuvres d'Art. Richard Gray Gallery also exhibits at Art: Basel, Art: Basel/Miami, Art Hong Kong and The Art Show/New York.

Ingrid Fassbender Fine Art - Chicago - U.S.A.

.

Ingrid Fassbender established the Fassbender Gallery in 1993 to promote contemporary Chicago artists to an international audience and at the same time to bring innovative European artists to Chicago. The gallery's primary focus is on recent innovations in painting, sculpture, photography and installation. In addition, the gallery also carries an extensive inventory of works on paper ranging from intimate drawings to works by well known American and European printmakers. Initially occupying a 3,000 square-foot space in a loft building located in Chicago's River West neighborhood, Fassbender Gallery soon expanded, adding a 4,000 square-foot facility at 309 West Superior. The Superior Street location, in the heart of Chicago's River North Gallery District, added two large exhibition spaces, The Main Gallery and The Project Room, to the Fassbender venue. In March of 2000, Fassbender Gallery moved to 835 West Washington Street, 2 blocks from the Randolph Street Corridor, in what is fast becoming Chicago's most exciting gallery district for contemporary art. The original loft space, now referred to as The Annex, has been retained for the presentation of special events, exhibitions, installations, and performances. The Annex also serves as a live/work space for visiting European artists. This work space was recently utilized by Berlin artist, Renate Herter, for the development of her minimal installation Kopfräume/Headrooms. In addition to exhibiting approximately 18 solo shows per year, Fassbender Gallery routinely presents group exhibitions dealing with current issues in contemporary art, often with political and international relevance. Political Visions showcased 4 artists who deal with issues of identity, often from a viewpoint outside the political mainstream. Group Talleria presented several contemporary artists from Mexico City, and Art Beyond Conflict was the largest exhibition of Irish contemporary art in Chicago.

Stephen Daiter Gallery - Chicago - U.S.A.

.
Stephen Daiter Gallery offers fine and vintage examples of important American and European photography from the 20th century. Our areas of specialty are avant garde, experimental, documentary and photojournalism. They include the Chicago School of Design, the Bauhaus, the Photo League, and the André Kertész Estate. Our exhibitions and publications have been by turns interesting, challenging, and controversial. Our publications have stressed fine printing and original scholarship and we delight in bringing art and artists to light that have been heretofore overlooked or unknown.

Daiter Contemporary presents recent work by young, as well as established mid-career artists. These artists reflect the ever changing ideas and looks of contemporary photography and push the rules of how photos are made as well as how they are looked at. Within a separate yet conjoined space Daiter Contemporary maintains a concurrent exhibition schedule alongside that of Stephen Daiter Gallery. Our joint goal is to present the viewing public an opportunity to enjoy the diverse range of photographic art that we represent.

Colletti Gallery - Chicago - U.S.A.

.
With one of the world's finest collections of antique posters and decorative arts, the Colletti Gallery showcases masterworks from the late nineteenth through the early twentieth centuries. Specializing in important works of the highest quality, Colletti offers a large inventory from the 1890's Belle Époque and Art Nouveau eras through the 1920's and 30's Art Deco and Modern periods.
The poster collection includes pristine works by major artists such as Mucha, Chéret, Toulouse-Lautrec, Cassandre, and Dudovich. The Colletti Gallery also offers exceptional examples of decorative arts by pivotal period artists such as Gallé, Majorelle, Loetz, and Kiss in addition to elegant Biedermeier and Empire furnishings.
Located in downtown Chicago's Oak Street, the Colletti Gallery is an important resource for those interested in collecting artworks -- from the serious collector to the first-time buyer. The gallery's museum-quality posters, furnishings and artifacts provide a rich repository of attainable artworks. As the seasoned collector knows, these works only become more and more rare and, over time, increase in value. While paintings by many of the artists featured are now prohibitively priced for most collectors, original lithographic posters and decorative arts still provide an outstanding opportunity to own a piece of art history.
The vintage poster, a product of the Machine Age and created as advertisement art for the streets, is an excellent choice for collectors who are looking for a strong artwork that brings with it a sense of history and drama. Modern lithography, elevated to an art form by artist Jules Chéret by the late nineteenth century, revolutionized the print industry. This new ability to merge word and image in an attractive and economical format made the lithographic poster a powerful innovation. Many key artists of the period, including Mucha, Toulouse-Lautrec, and Meunier, were enthralled with this new medium, embracing its possibilities.
In this new process, artists would draw their image, in reverse, on blocks of limestone. Each color was then "pulled" separately, making for a painstaking process. The resulting posters were often product advertisements, designed for major visual impact and ultimately posted on building facades and walls. Turn-of-the-century metropolitan centers, once bleak and gray, came to boast of their own "art galleries in the streets."
In addition to their expansive collection of pristine posters, Colletti offers the finest examples of period decorative arts and furnishings from the Belle Époque to the Art Deco periods. Additionally, Beidermeier and Empire furnishings, distinguished by their elegance and simplicity, provide the perfect setting for a growing art collection.
