Resurgence of Art Chicago
So successful was this year’s Art Chicago under the new patronage of the Merchandise Mart that it’s hard to believe how many people had left the pioneering art event for dead just a year or so ago. The art world was buzzing with enthusiasm as collectors and audiences flocked to the mega show at the Mart, now combined with The International Antiques Fair and The Intuit Show. The Mart must have been pleased as well: before the show was even over, it announced that it had taken over two more art fairs: Volta in Basel, Switzerland and—score one for the Second City—the Armory Show in New York.
