The Art Institute of Chicago in Chicago'southward Grant Park, founded in 1879, is i of the oldest and largest art museums in the world. Recognized for its curatorial efforts and popularity among visitors, the museum hosts approximately 1.5 million people annually.[3] Its drove, stewarded by xi curatorial departments, is encyclopedic, and includes iconic works such as Georges Seurat's A Sunday on La Grande Jatte, Pablo Picasso's The Old Guitarist, Edward Hopper'due south Nighthawks, and Grant Forest's American Gothic. Its permanent collection of nearly 300,000 works of art is augmented by more than 30 special exhibitions mounted yearly that illuminate aspects of the collection and present cutting-edge curatorial and scientific research.

Equally a inquiry institution, the Art Establish also has a conservation and conservation science department, 5 conservation laboratories, and one of the largest art history and architecture libraries in the country—the Ryerson and Burnham Libraries.

The growth of the collection has warranted several additions to the museum's 1893 building, which was constructed for the World'south Columbian Exposition. The most recent expansion, the Modern Wing designed past Renzo Piano, opened in 2009 and increased the museum's footprint to nearly i million square feet, making information technology the second-largest art museum in the United States, after the Metropolitan Museum of Art.[4] The Art Found is associated with the Schoolhouse of the Fine art Plant of Chicago, a leading fine art schoolhouse, making it 1 of the few remaining unified arts institutions in the United States.

In 2017, the Art Institute received 1,619,316 visitors, and was the 35th most-visited fine art museum in the world.[5] Yet, in 2020, due to the COVID-nineteen pandemic, the museum was closed for 169 days, and attendance plunged by 78 percent from 2019, to 365,660.[6]

History [edit]

In 1866, a group of 35 artists founded the Chicago Academy of Blueprint in a studio on Dearborn Street, with the intent to run a free school with its own art gallery. The organisation was modeled afterwards European art academies, such as the Majestic Academy, with Academicians and Associate Academicians. The University's lease was granted in March 1867.

Classes started in 1868, coming together every solar day at a cost of $ten per month. The Academy's success enabled it to build a new home for the school, a five-story stone building on 66 West Adams Street, which opened on November 22, 1870.

When the Dandy Chicago Fire destroyed the building in 1871 the Academy was thrown into debt. Attempts to proceed despite the loss past using rented facilities failed. By 1878, the Academy was $10,000 in debt. Members tried to rescue the ailing institution by making deals with local businessmen, before some finally abandoned it in 1879 to found a new arrangement, named the Chicago University of Fine Arts. When the Chicago University of Design went bankrupt the same twelvemonth, the new Chicago Academy of Fine Arts bought its avails at auction.

In 1882, the Chicago University of Fine Arts changed its name to the electric current Art Plant of Chicago and elected as its first president the broker and philanthropist Charles 50. Hutchinson, who "is arguably the single most important private to have shaped the management and fortunes of the Art Institute of Chicago".[7] : 5 Hutchinson was a director of many prominent Chicago organizations, including the University of Chicago,[viii] and would transform the Fine art Institute into a globe-class museum during his presidency, which he held until his expiry in 1924.[ix] As well in 1882, the organization purchased a lot on the southwest corner of Michigan Avenue and Van Buren Street for $45,000. The existing commercial building on that property was used for the organization'due south headquarters, and a new improver was constructed behind it to provide gallery space and to business firm the school's facilities.[seven] : 19 By January 1885 the trustees recognized the need to provide additional infinite for the organization's growing collection, and to this terminate purchased the vacant lot straight s on Michigan Avenue. The commercial edifice was demolished,[10] and the noted architect John Wellborn Root was hired by Hutchinson to pattern a building that would create an "impressive presence" on Michigan Avenue,[7] : 22–23 and these facilities opened to smashing fanfare in 1887.[7] : 24

With the announcement of the Globe's Columbian Exposition to be held in 1892–93, the Fine art Institute pressed for a building on the lakefront to be constructed for the off-white, but to be used by the Institute later. The city agreed, and the building was completed in time for the second year of the fair. Construction costs were met by selling the Michigan/Van Buren property. On October 31, 1893, the Institute moved into the new edifice. For the opening reception on December eight, 1893, Theodore Thomas and the Chicago Symphony Orchestra performed.

From the early 1900s (to the 1960s the school offered with the Logan Family (members of the lath) the Logan Medal of the Arts, an award which became one of the most distinguished awards presented to artists in the US. Between 1959 and 1970, the institute was a key site in the battle to gain art and documentary photography a place in galleries, under curator Hugh Edwards and his assistants.

As Director of the museum starting in the early on 1980s, James N. Wood conducted a major expansion of its collection and oversaw a major renovation and expansion project for its facilities. As "one of the near respected museum leaders in the land", equally described past The New York Times, Forest created major exhibitions of works by Paul Gauguin, Claude Monet and Vincent van Gogh that set records for attendance at the museum. He retired from the museum in 2004.[eleven]

The Institute began construction of "The Modern Wing", an addition situated on the southwest corner of Columbus and Monroe in the early 21st century.[12] The project, designed by Pritzker Prize–winning architect Renzo Piano, was completed and officially opened to the public on May xvi, 2009.

The building houses the museum'southward world-renowned collections of 20th and 21st century art, specifically mod European painting and sculpture, contemporary art, architecture and design, and photography. In its inaugural survey in 2014, travel review website and forum, Tripadvisor, reviewed millions of travelers' surveys and named the Art Institute the world'south best museum.[xiii]

The museum received possibly the largest gift of art in its history in 2015.[14] Collectors Stefan Edlis and Gael Neeson donated a "collection [that] is among the world'south greatest groups of postwar Popular art ever assembled".[xv] The donation includes works past Andy Warhol, Jasper Johns, Cy Twombly, Jeff Koons, Charles Ray, Richard Prince, Cindy Sherman, Roy Lichtenstein and Gerhard Richter.

The Art Constitute's famous western archway on Michigan Avenue is guarded by two bronze panthera leo statues created by Edward Kemeys. The lions were unveiled on May 10, 1894, each weighing more than ii tons. The sculptor gave them unofficial names: the s panthera leo is "stands in an attitude of disobedience", and the north lion is "on the prowl". When a Chicago sports team plays in the championships of their respective league (i.e. the Super Bowl or Stanley Cup Finals, not the unabridged playoffs), the lions are frequently dressed in that squad's uniform. Evergreen wreaths are placed around their necks during the Christmas season.

The Chicago Tribune editorial page criticized the Intitute'due south letter announcing the modify and the motion to a new model, arguing that "[o]nce you cut through the blather, the letter basically said the museum had looked critically at its corps of docents, a group dominated by mostly (simply not entirely) white, retired women with some fourth dimension to spare, and found them wanting as a demographic."[66] The Establish'due south director, Robert M. Levy, responded in a Tribune op-ed supporting the alter, and described the Tribune's editorial as having "numerous inaccuracies and mischaracterizations", noted that the docent programme had already been largely on interruption for the by 15 months due to the COVID pandemic, and argued that the conclusion was not almost anyone'southward identity, it was in keeping with changing modern museum practices around the world.[67]

Following a volunteerism surge in the late 1940s, the plan had been created in 1961 to revitalize and expand "programming for children."[68] Amongst other matters, since 2014 the program had been trying to attract a more diverse socioeconomic perspective set of art-tour guides, given the unpaid time commitment needed.[69]
