No Expo, No Problem

Sept. 5–Jan. 18

MONET AND CHICAGO

Art Institute of Chicago, Loop

Why this Monet exhibit? The Art Institute owns the largest collection of Monets outside of Paris — 33 paintings and 13 drawings — and is supplementing those with works from local private collections, many of which have rarely been shown.

Look for Five Figures in a Field, an 1888 portrait of Monet’s family in Giverny that hasn’t been exhibited since 1995

Tour virtually? No

Cost $25

Sept. 8–Nov. 22
