NEXT Chicago Art Fair

I am pleased to announce that Dean Jensen Gallery in Milwaukee is taking my work to NEXT, an art fair in Chicago.

NEXT:

The Invitational Exhibition of Emerging Art

An opportunity to redefine the relationship between art and its public, NEXT is a portal to seeing contemporary art in new, innovative, eye-opening ways. NEXT will include works from both commercial and non-commercial arts organizations--galleries, project spaces, art publications and key private contemporary collections from around the world.

NEXT will be located at:
The Merchandise Mart
