About Gertie

Gertie is a platform for contemporary art and performance in Chicago—built on the conviction that complex, uncompromising practices can be deeply felt by a general audience. Through our exhibition program and membership community, we work to close the distance between ambitious art and curious people: equipping audiences to understand how the art world actually works, why it matters, and how to move through it with confidence. We partner with artists, curators, galleries, and institutions to connect Chicago to the world and the world to Chicago.
