Newcity Breakout Artists - 22nd Edition Exhibition Opening

Chicago Artists Coalition is pleased to announce our partnership with Newcity, in which CAC will host a centerpiece exhibition of this year's Newcity Breakout Artists. The exhibition will have an opening reception on Wednesday, April 23, 2025 from 5-8pm. This event is free and open to the public, hosted at our new location. The exhibition will be on view until June 5, 2025.

Of the 150+ Breakout Artists before this year, over 40 now have gallery representation, ranging from Hauser & Wirth to numerous Chicago galleries; most of the others, including those who've chosen less commercial paths, show regularly at museums and institutions around the world.
