Chicago is a city of culture. Many museums and interesting galleries showcase art from all eras. An exciting new art movement is looking for other venues. Outside the white cube, international urban artists have created many hidden art sites in the city that are increasingly shaping the image of public space.

In the exhibition, the curator and gallery director invites you to discover these sites and see a new aspect of Chicago. Urban artists combine trends of classical art with pop, punk, graffiti or street art, reflecting the thoughts and moods of the present. They showcase their work in galleries and public spaces, in the urban environment. They turn these areas into the largest possible gallery and reclaim public space with their murals and installations. In recent years, Urban Art has established itself as an art movement in the field of contemporary art.

During a 2-hour walk through the city’s neighborhoods, your guide will show you works by renowned artists. Meanwhile, you discover the ghosts of PDOT as well as sticker art and stickers from regional and international artists, and get background information on the creation of the artwork, the artists, and a brief look at the city’s history.
