VGA is delighted to partner with Open House Contemporary (OHC) for a summer survey of video game art. As a Chicago-based organization that brings art into residential settings, the OHC is a singular venue whose primary audience are guests of the OHC's Galerie Soirée, a vacation rental and exhibition space in Chicago's River West neighborhood, available for private booking here. The survey will highlight distinctive game art by emerging and established artists and game developers from across the field and across the world, as drawn from the VGA print collection.  This exhibition is organized by VGA Gallery in partnership with OHC. 

VGA Gallery is generously supported by the Illinois Arts Council Agency, individuals and private and corporate foundations. 

About Open House Contemporary: Open House Contemporary offers a unique vision on the role of art in the life of the viewer, home, city and the community.  By bringing together a diverse collection of contemporary artworks in residential settings, OHC places art front and center in people's lives, while at the same time recognizing that art can be just as compelling in a living room as in a gallery.
