Gallery Background:

Western Exhibitions is a commercial gallery showing and representing emerging and established artists who work in contemporary idioms. Begun in 2002 as a "portable gallery", in which director Scott Speh exercised all of the functions of an art gallery without a bricks-and-mortar space until 2004, when Western Exhibition moved into a three-room former factory space on Chicago's west side. Western Exhibitions moved to Chicago's West Loop gallery district in September 2008. The gallery focuses on working with a varied roster of conceptual-minded artists, helping them to achieve their artistic and professional goals. Western Exhibitions stages solo shows of gallery and non-gallery artists who are given complete freedom to realize their projects in Gallery 1 and in Gallery 2, exhibits artist projects and thematic group shows. Western Exhibitions shows work in all media and maintains a specific inventory of artist books and multiples, gathered together on our sister entity's website, WesternXeditions
