Chicago Art Movements Over The Years, From the Monster Roster to the Modern Moment

Chicago’s art history is defined by a series of indigenous movements that prioritized visceral, existential expression over commercial appeal. The article traces this lineage back to the late 1940s with the emergence of the Monster Roster, a group of artists including Leon Golub and Dominick Di Meo who returned from World War II to produce agonistic work. This movement was catalyzed by institutional resistance at the School of the Art Institute of Chicago, leading to the creation of the independent Momentum Exhibitions which bypassed conservative juried systems.

Remembering Rauschenberg’s decades in Florida

Robert Rauschenberg (1925-2008), described by critic Robert Hughes as "the most important American artist of the last century," spent four decades in Florida, where materials and collaborators from the state fueled breakthroughs like his scrap-metal sculptures and the Rauschenberg Overseas Cultural Interchange (Roci).
