Current Exhibition
What We Saved: Femmage Revisited
May 15 - July 10, 2026​
The Gallery of Contemporary Mosaics and the Chicago Collage Community are proud to present, "What We Saved: Femmage Revisited". This exhibition opens on May 15 and will be on display until July 10, 2026 in the Gallery of Contemporary Mosaics.
​
This exhibition highlights collage as a uniquely feminine art form of saving, fragmenting, and mending to tell women’s stories. 26 artists from the Chicago area exhibit work that explores themes of saving, collecting, and feminist narratives. This exhibition aims to honor collage and its history while inspiring contemporary collage artists to reconsider their work through the Femmage framework, which is both openly political and deeply personal.
