Art Institute of Chicago

Founded in 1879 and occupying its Michigan Avenue Beaux-Arts building since 1893, the Art Institute of Chicago is one of the oldest and largest art museums in the United States. Its encyclopedic collection of nearly 300,000 works spans five millennia, with celebrated holdings in Impressionist and Post-Impressionist painting — including Seurat's A Sunday on La Grande Jatte and Caillebotte's Paris Street; Rainy Day — alongside major American, European, African, Asian, and contemporary collections. The 2009 Modern Wing by Renzo Piano extended the campus and reframed the museum's engagement with modern and contemporary art.
