SUMMARY:Chair-ish Art Exhibit
DESCRIPTION:Chair-ish\, an exhibition of Chicago-based artists Alex Chitty and Norman Teague\nJanuary 22–April 11\, 2026 | Cleve Carney Museum of Art\nFor the first time\, Chitty and Teague are working together to explore material\, memory\, and spatial dialogue through distinct yet complementary practices. Chitty’s sculptural investigations and Teague’s work both challenge perception and movement while suggesting the poetic within the everyday. Their work draws on vernacular design\, cultural heritage\, and the social histories within shape and form. Together\, the artists examine the intimacy of the objects we encounter every day\, with an installation that mirrors this sentimentality through works that feel simultaneously new and familiar. \nThis pairing presents a conversation between two approaches to object-making that are both deeply grounded in process and open to reinterpretation. The exhibition invites viewers to consider how materials can hold personal and collective meaning\, and how space can be used as a site for inquiry\, assembly\, and reimagining. Together\, their works occupy the museum like echoes not in opposition\, but in soft dialogue. What emerges is a parallel consideration of structure\, memory\, and the body in space. Their shared attention to material integrity and the unspoken knowledge of making\, reminds us that form can hold meaning beyond language. \nRead More >
