THE ART INSTITUTE OF CHICAGO SHARES ITS SINGULAR COLLECTIONS WITH OUR CITY AND THE WORLD. WE COLLECT, CARE FOR, AND INTERPRET WORKS OF ART ACROSS TIME, CULTURES, GEOGRAPHIES, AND IDENTITIES, CENTERING THE VISION OF ARTISTS AND MAKERS. WE RECOGNIZE THAT ALL ART IS MADE IN A PARTICULAR CONTEXT, DEMANDING CONTINUAL, DYNAMIC RECONSIDERATION IN THE PRESENT. WE ARE A PLACE OF GATHERING; WE FOSTER THE EXCHANGE OF IDEAS AND INSPIRE AN EXPANSIVE, INCLUSIVE UNDERSTANDING OF HUMAN CREATIVITY. THE MUSEUM ACHIEVES THIS THROUGH BUILDING AND STEWARDING ITS RENOWNED PERMANENT COLLECTION, PRODUCING EDUCATIONAL PROGRAMMING AROUND THE COLLECTION WITH PERFORMANCES, AND OTHER SPECIAL EVENTS, AND PRESENTING WORLD CLASS EXHIBITIONS HIGHLIGHTING BOTH ITS COLLECTION AND OBJECTS LOANED FROM OTHER INSTITUTIONS. IN FY22, FEATURED EXHIBITIONS INCLUDED "BARBARA KRUGER", "ANDRE KERTESZ: POSTCARDS FROM PARIS", "IGSHAAN ADAMS: DESIRE LINES", AND "CEZANNE".GeographiesNot indicatedDatesJul 1, 2021 – Jun 30, 2022Source990No causes providedNo populations provided–$89M
