    CHICAGO —The list of premier galleries that will be exhibiting at this year’s Expo Chicago, The International Exposition of Contemporary and Modern Art, has been announced.

    Announcing the list, President and Director Tony Karman, who has successfully organized the event for the past two years, said that “We are very proud to announce this exceptional list of exhibitors that have been selected to represent our third edition.” According to him, this year’s event is very important because of the special events that have been planned. “This is a very important year for us, and this list, coupled with the extraordinary exhibition alignments and events that are coinciding with Expo Chicago, makes Chicago the place to be this September. From the ‘David Bowie Is…’ Gala and exhibition at the Museum of Contemporary Art Chicago, to the Sarah Charlesworth and Magritte exhibitions at the Art Institute of Chicago; from the free Riccardo Muti concert in Millennium Park to the newly established ‘Art After Hours,’ showcasing our city’s art galleries, the city is galvanized around Expo Chicago to welcome the world,” he said.
