Meshuganah
@ A Very Serious Gallery
673 N Milwaukee Ave, Chicago, IL 60642
Opening Friday, April 12th, from 6PM - 10PM
On view through Thursday, May 2nd
Step into the spirited world of “Meshuganah”, a whimsical and culturally rich exhibition showcasing the most highly acclaimed Jewish artists from across the nation.
Hosted at A Very Serious Gallery, and co-curated by Josh & Megan Rogers, this joyful, yet deeply meaningful show, is a celebration of the Jewish artistic expression.
In alignment with EXPO, Chicago’s premiere art showcase, “Meshuganah” transcends Chicago to unite Jewish artists from New York, London, Los Angeles, and Miami. Their diverse perspectives converge in a kaleidoscope of creativity, reflecting the dynamic and pluralistic nature of contemporary Jewish identity.
We proudly present a constellation of acclaimed artists, including Joel Mesler, Allison Zuckerman, Marc Dennis, Lisa Edelstein, Robert Russell, Zoe Buckman, Typoe, Eric Yahnker, Jon Burgerman, Michael Shaw, and Jac Lahav, each bringing their unique vision and talent to this extraordinary exhibition during the Chicago art scene’s most important moment.
At a time when American Jews are navigating what it means to be Jewish, “Meshuganah” provides a space for communal dialog and cultural exploration. Through the universal language of art, we come together to explore what it means to openly embrace and celebrate Jewish heritage.
“Meshuganah” is more than just an art show—it’s a gathering, a celebration, and a shared experience. Throughout the duration of the exhibition, guests are invited to participate in a secular Passover seder on Friday, April 26th and an even more secular comedy show on Saturday, May 2, adding a touch of humor to the traditionally quiet space.
Join us as we come together to celebrate art, culture, and community at “Meshuganah.”
The exhibition opens on Friday, April 12th, with a celebration from 6pm-10pm. The show will be on display through May 4th, offering many opportunities to engage with the artwork and to be immersed in the vibrant spirit of Jewish ingenuity.
