Gallery Conversation: Provenance Research at the Art Institute of Chicago

The Art Institute's Provenance Research team leads a gallery conversation that traces how artworks moved from studio to collector to museum — a detective story told through objects. On Thursday, November 19, from 2:00 to 3:00 PM, meet in Gallery 261; the group will visit several galleries on different levels, with elevators available. The program is led by three researchers whose specialties span medieval objects, ancient American art, and textiles, so the discussion draws on real cases from the collection rather than generic theory. Free, no registration required, and ASL interpretation or assisted listening devices are available with two weeks' notice.
