Permanent Collection We Recommend
The Art Institute of Chicago houses Major Impressionist and Post-Impressionist works.
Considered one of the finest and most comprehensive in the world, this extraordinary collection of modern art includes nearly 1,000 works of art by artists from Europe and the Americas. The modern collection boasts some of the greatest icons of the 20th Century, including Picasso's Old Guitarist, Matisse's Bathers by a River, Lachaise's Woman (Elevation), Brancusi's Golden Bird, O'Keeffe's Black Cross, New Mexico, Orozco's Zapata, Wood's American Gothic, Magritte's Time Transfixed, Hopper's Nighthawks, and Ivan Albright's Picture of Dorian Gray.
After you visit the special exhibition we recommend seeing the works of the artists creating within the same time period as Erté.
