DOCUMENT is a contemporary art gallery located in Chicago and Lisbon with a focus on image-based practices, sculpture, and installation art. Since its inception in Chicago in 2012, the gallery has organized over 100 exhibitions and actively promotes the work of emerging and established international artists.
In 2017, DOCUMENT relocated to a larger space in Chicago’s West Town and has since anchored its program as a conversation between emerging voices and established figures. The gallery has developed a reputation for championing artists and exhibiting challenging works across disciplines. DOCUMENT has successfully placed works in a number of national and internationally renowned institutions and collections, and artists from the roster regularly participate in major exhibitions and biennials on the global art scene.
In 2022, the gallery opened a second location in Lisbon, Portugal, allowing it to expand the gallery’s outreach to the international scene. DOCUMENT has participated in major art fairs such as Art Basel Miami Beach, Art Basel Paris, Paris Photo, Arco Lisboa, The Armory Show, and EXPO Chicago among others.
Operating conjointly as a professional printmaking studio in its Chicago headquarters, DOCUMENT facilitates the production of works by artists from the region and beyond, making a wide range of printing techniques available for gallery artists to realize their works.
