Street art pop-up gallery in Fulton Market
@ Carousel Fine Art
1052 W Fulton St, Chicago, IL 60607
Opening Friday, April 28th, from 6PM - 10PM
On view through Thursday, April 20th
From Saint-Tropez to Miami, Carousel Fine Art has arrived to the Windy City to shine a new light on Chicago’s urban and street art scene. Partnering with collectors and Chicago natives Ryan and Casey Harris, they deliver an arsenal of dynamic works that open a window to the current state of street art on a universal scale.
The gallery, located at 1052 W. Fulton Street, features artwork from both local and international artists and will be open to the public through the 29th of May, from 11am to 8pm. Its concept, “Apricity Awakened,” refers to the kind of environment that Carousel seeks to foster: warm, welcoming, teeming with creative energy.
The space is no mere white cube. With its warm brick interior, dynamic floor plan, and no shortage of tongue-in-cheek works on display, Carousel offers a novel and uniquely intimate venue for enjoying contemporary art. Visitors can expect to see a range of styles, techniques, and mediums, from large-scale murals to intricate stencil work and everything in between.
“We are excited to bring this unique and dynamic art form to Chicago,” says Philippe Horowicz, founder and co-owner of Carousel Fine Art. “Street art has become an important part of the global art scene, and we are proud to provide a platform for both established and emerging artists to showcase their work.”
The pop-up gallery will feature works from some of the most prominent names in the scene, including Jisbar, Brendan Murphy, KAi, Chance Cooper, Westgard, BYC, Mr. Brainwash, and Lefty, as well as works from up-and-coming artists from around the globe.
In addition to the display, the pop-up gallery will also feature curated events on April 28, May 12, and May 25. Avid collectors, street art enthusiasts, and spectators alike are welcome. Admission is free.
