About Us

Artist Replete started online in 2017 as a middle ground between traditional gallery representation and independent artists. Guided by our mantra, Some Traditions Were Made to Be Broken, we curate thought-provoking exhibitions and projects that push beyond the expected. Today, Artist Replete operates as a contemporary art gallery in downtown Chicago, presenting monthly exhibitions featuring both local and internationally recognized artists.

Working across a wide range of mediums, Artist Replete engages painting and sculpture alongside assemblage, skate deck art, and public art commissions. Our programming extends beyond the gallery walls, supporting artists through exhibitions, site-specific installations, and collaborative projects that connect contemporary art with real spaces and audiences. While the majority of works are available to view online, select pieces and exhibitions are occasionally reserved for an in-gallery experience.

In early 2023, Artist Replete opened its first official flagship location inside Water Tower Place, one of Chicago’s most visited cultural and retail destinations. Situated on level two, the gallery operates in a highly public-facing environment, introducing contemporary art to a broader audience through rotating exhibitions and curated installations in the heart of the city.
