Monique Meloche Gallery

Wicker Park, Bucktown & Ukrainian Village


One of Chicago's tastemakers, Monique Meloche has an eye for emerging artists, such as Amy Sherald, who painted Michelle Obama's official portrait. Her gallery features provocative paintings, neon and mixed media from local and international artists, with an emphasis on artists of color. Its new, expanded space is down a side street in a former industrial corridor of West Town.
