EXPO Chicago
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
EXPO CHICAGO is an international contemporary and modern art exhibition held each year in Chicago, Illinois. In 2012, it subsumed the role of Art Chicago, which was Chicago's longest-running major contemporary art exposition,[1] running from 1980 until its cancelation after the 2011 fair due to financial problems.[2]
