Making Art & Asking Questions Since 2004

关于我们

Founded in 2004 by artists, educators, and activists, Chicago Art Department (CAD) grew out of a need to create space for artists to thrive in Chicago, fostering a spirit of community, collaboration, and inclusion for all individuals working toward civic change. Today, CAD is an artist-run, BIPOC-led nonprofit with a mission to provide space and resources for civically-minded artists to grow their practice while questioning the city we live in. CAD provides equitable and accessible opportunities for artistic development through subsidized Studio Residencies, Collective Learning Cohorts, and contemporary Exhibitions and Programs rooted in justice. For 20 years CAD has advanced creative Chicago voices that otherwise might not be heard. Collectively founded in 2004 and located in Pilsen since 2005, CAD’s physical space features 11,000 square feet comprising two public galleries, private studio space for up to 20 artists, and community event areas. Since starting the Studio Residency Program in 2012, CAD has worked with over 100 Resident artists, and through partnerships and exhibitions, has exhibited works by over 1,000 artists. CAD aims to be a collective of diverse communities tied to each Resident artist and public program, creating a rich tapestry of community and culture working toward civic change. With a mantra of TRY IT, MAKE IT, SHARE IT—CAD stands by advocacy for a more just society, and is committed to providing resources for the betterment of the city and culture we live in and call home—Chicago.

    Moving Print Chicago Art Department November 8 – December 27, 2024 Moving Print explores printmaking as a medium in motion, transcending traditional formats and dimensions. This exhibition brings together artists working with monoprints, risographs, latex-printed textiles, and digital media to examine how print can evolve beyond static images. Featuring works by Lisa Armstrong, Mac Blackout, Tom Burtonwood, Sofia Diaz, Dud Lawson, Brian Steckel, Eric Von Haynes, and more, Moving Print invites viewers to experience print as a dynamic art form. These artists capture movement through layered visuals and experimental techniques. Don’t miss this exploration of the vibrant possibilities in printmaking!

    I really had to think of the format to share 16 months of reconnecting with Marquette Park, a space from my childhood—323 acres of green space I first got to know by its trees and birds before I even knew it by its name. The park is the largest green space in all of the Southwest of Chicago, a rehearsal space where friction meets freedom, where West Lawn and Chicago Lawn come to break away from the stresses of the industrial corridors. Join me on September 20th, from 4-9 PM, for the opening of diversión, the culmination of my Anchor Curatorial Residency with @chicagoparks ! Over the past year and a half, I’ve worked with the community towards this show, exploring what happens when public land is reclaimed for joy and collective experience. What happens when public engagement transforms our parks into spaces of co-creation? How can we use socially participatory projects to break out of the chronic stresses that surround us? The show invites a rhizosphere of artists and neighbors: @titewonsey @artworkprojects @eltestigo44 @wilsands @itsmedeonreed @_prince_jai Meh.work @marimachamonarcapress @criscrrross @ojitos_j8 @ariari @vales_madre @carlosbarberena @oshkur2.0 @davistint @maya.kosover @kjameshenderson @depressionpress @dudlawson @humanscaleorg @artistic_disasters and more to come!
