DePaul Art Museum to Open in Fall

Lawndale News Chicago's Bilingual Newspaper - EducationThe DePaul Art Museum’s new $7.8 million home at 935 W. Fullerton Ave., just east of the CTA’s Fullerton “L” stop, will debut with the Sept. 17 opening of “Re: Chicago.” The exhibition, which runs through February 2012, examines the careers and artistic reputations of Chicago artists over more than a century. Artworks in the exhibition were chosen by asking leading figures in the Chicago art world – from critics to scholars to collectors – to name a famous artist or one who should be famous. The new museum unveiling will begin with an opening reception and panel discussion featuring the catalog authors and conversations with artists in the galleries. The museum is free and open to the public. For more information about the program or museum, please call (773) 325-7506 or visit http://museums.depaul.edu/artwebsite.
