Top Five Booths Not to Miss at Expo Chicago 2026
Expo Chicago 2026 marks a strategic shift under the new leadership of director Kate Sierzputowski and curator Essence Harden, moving away from purely commercial dealer interests toward a more artist-centric and curatorial approach. This year's iteration features a streamlined selection of galleries, allowing for greater depth and focus on individual practices. Notable highlights include Pablo Delano’s poignant installations at Embajada exploring Puerto Rican history, a diverse group showing at Marc Straus Gallery featuring artists like Marie Watt and Lucia Hierro, and a collaborative presentation by São Paulo galleries Bianca Boeckel and Verve.
