The Jackson Junge Gallery is a remarkable contribution to the flourishing arts community of Wicker Park / Bucktown in Chicago. Co-owned by the talented Chicago artist Laura Lee Junge and her husband / partner Chris Jackson, this gallery serves as an exclusive local venue for Junge’s captivating paintings and other exquisite works of art.&nbsp; Before the gallery’s opening in the fall of 2009, Junge’s artwork was only available for limited viewing at her studio, seasonal art fairs, and through distributors outside of Chicago. Since then, the gallery has introduced Chicagoans to a dynamic hometown talent who has gained significant international recognition from art lovers and critics alike. While the spotlight shines on Junge, the gallery also showcases a diverse selection of works by other contemporary artists from Chicago and beyond.&nbsp; Throughout the year, guest artist exhibits are hosted, adding to the variety of art on display. Located on a bustling section of Milwaukee Ave. just north of Division St. and south of North Ave., the Jackson Junge Gallery draws a diverse clientele. From the avid art collector to the casual admirer, visitors delight in the comfortable ambiance and welcoming atmosphere found within its walls.&nbsp; In an effort to make art accessible to a wider audience, the gallery offers exceptional quality giclee reproductions and prints for purchase, alongside original pieces. The use of sophisticated technology ensures the production of superior quality prints. Furthermore, all Junge giclees are created in-house at the Jackson Junge Gallery and are subject to the artist’s personal inspection.&nbsp; The Jackson Junge Gallery also provides a comprehensive range of custom framing services on-site. With the guidance of skilled craftsman and gallery co-owner Chris Jackson, customers can find the perfect mount, protection, and frame for their art, photography, and other treasured possessions.

The Jackson Junge Gallery proudly presents NO COLOR, their first group exhibition of the year. An exhibition that will explore the endless creativity that art can still present with little to no color, black and white are naturally opposites. White is the presence of all colors on the light spectrum and is frequently a symbol for pure light. While Black is created through the combination of all colors in art, and many times represents darkness. NO COLOR gives artists the chance to show what can be created when black and white come together.Image: Bryn Gleason, 2023, Acrylic &amp; Water on Birchwood, 30" x 24" x 1 ¾"
