32nd Annual Midwest Seaons

Original works should draw inspiration from Midwest impressions and activities (i.e. the excitement of summer sports, the fresh scents of spring awakening, the warmth of a hot cup of soup in the bitter winter, or the crisp autumn colors).

Program Highlights

NEXT at Christie's: London 2022 Open Call

Next at Christie’s: London 2022 is a hybrid — physical and virtual — exhibition of works by the next generation of artists, taking place in January 2022 and hosted at Duke Street Gallery, Christie's, London. The open call welcomes all London-based artists — either currently studying or recently graduated, and not represented by a commercial gallery. The concept addresses the absurdity of contemporary reality by allowing the ‘Absurd’ to take over the exhibition's artistic and curatorial expression.
