The gallery sells limited editions by many prominent artists: Leon Golub, Philip Pearlstein, Richard Hunt, Audrey Niffenegger, and more. They also have a collection of artworks available for $300 or less. The Tony Fitzpatrick prints shown here fall within the more expensive category, but we've rounded up some affordable picks below...

Boy, I really love that Harvey Daniels print, and his others on the "Affordable" webpage. They have a great mid-C flair and color and would be perfect in my office. They are just expensive enough to cause serious internal tsuris about whether I should splurge for one or not. Thanks for posting this, though. It's a wonderful resource for not-run-of-the-mill decoration.

SOMEWHAT UNRELATED BUT INTERESTING UPDATE IN CHICAGO ART SCENE --- there is a new non-denominational, Christian church at the corner of Avers and Irving Park Road called Tapestry. Mark Johnson is the pastor and he has very innovative ideas on how to draw his community together. He offers GALLERY ART SHOWINGS now and then. Sorry, I don't have the phone number, but I'm sure you can find it at superpages.com or some such place.
