About this Event
Art, Design & Architecture Mixer | Chicago
ARTSRVE and PATRON are hosting an evening for Chicago's art and design community.
Art professionals, architects, and interior designers are rarely in the same room. All of them shape the same spaces, just from different sides. This is a chance to close that gap and meet in person.
Come if you're any of the following, or simply want to be around people who are:
- Architects
- Interior designers
- Artists working across painting, sculpture, photography, installation, and mixed media
- Art advisors, consultants, and agents
- Appraisers and conservators
- Gallerists and dealers
- Collectors
- Art framers, installers and handlers
- Art insurers, lenders, and attorneys

6:45 PM — Announcements and introductions from ARTSRVE and PATRON, followed by tour of the gallery
7:00 PM — Mingling continues
8:00 PM — Event ends
Complimentary refreshments, including wine, will be served throughout the evening.

PATRON (https://patrongallery.com/):
PATRON is a contemporary art gallery in Chicago created by Julia Fischbach and Emanuel Aguilar in 2015.

About the show
PATRON presents their second solo exhibition, Errantry, with Chicago-based artist Lindsay Adams. Adams’s new body of work extends an exploration into the query at the root of her practice; Where can I go to wander? As she moves across her canvases with an intuitive choreography, delicate gestures evidence errant modes of being, and moving through the world. Errantry marks her first exhibition since the unveiling of her mural commission at the Obama Presidential Center.
PATRON is proud to announce Tannic Waters, their second solo exhibition with Claire Sherman. Over the past two decades, Sherman’s conceptual approach to landscape painting has drawn upon researching, extensive hiking and photographing, and the development of a painterly language that shifts in and out of representation. Her emotive, intimate renderings of the natural world, of places filtered through her own psyche, shift from traditions of land ‘captured’ to an examination of nature as artifice that informs societal and personal narratives.
