Chicago Truborn
Founded in 2011, Chicago Truborn is a non–traditional gallery dedicated to promoting and supporting emerging and established artists, with a focus on graffiti and street art. The gallery is known for providing affordable art in a welcoming environment.
Multiple times, Chicago Truborn has been dubbed "Chicago's Best Gallery". Since its start, every exhibition has featured two (site-specific) murals to connect with the currently displayed body of work. This not only improves the aesthetics of the space, but also invites visitors to interact with the exhibit. Furthermore, creating murals inside the limitations of their studio work allows the artist to express themselves in a more varied manner: one that you may be more familiar with as a result of their public art endeavors.
Truborn Chicago, a small gallery in West Town, changes exhibitions every five weeks, so there's always something fresh to see. "Become a collector", the gallery's unofficial motto, and artists are frequently urged to create site-specific murals that compliment the paintings on display. In addition, prices are often low.
