Madron — home to Madron Gallery, Madron Press, and the Skolnik family’s private art collection — is taking a new approach to artistic patronage. Established in 2001, Madron’s scholarship driven programming creates exhibitions and publications that champion the work of significant, yet often lesser-known artists in the history of art. With an interest in Jewish and Chicago artists, Madron’s inventory of 19th and 20th century paintings, drawings, sculptures, photographs, and prints—displayed en suite in our gallery alongside curated exhibitions of both historical and contemporary artists—illuminates artistic connections across decades.

Exhibition essays and publications from the in-house Madron Press are available online.
