History

Established in 2000.

FLATFILEgalleries, which was founded in Chicago’s West Loop gallery district as FLATFILEphotographyGALLERY, has since expanded to include contemporary art and sculpture, showing all artistic disciplines in one of the largest gallery spaces in Chicago. The work of the galleries’ emerging and established artists hang side by side in 30 shows in each of five gallery spaces throughout the year, with over 1,000 photographs and works on paper stored in 80 flat file drawers at all times, and many paintings and sculptures available for viewing. FLATFILE’s local and international artists’ work hangs in many of the world’s most important museums and private collections. The variety of work at a wide range of price points is ideal for anyone seeking interesting art, from first time buyers to seasoned collectors.
