Gallery artist Carlos Salazar-Lermont is opening a solo exhibition at the Drawing Room of The Arts Club of Chicago, (May 11-September 15, 2026). The exhibition brings together works produced across different moments and geographies of the artist’s practice, including pieces made in Venezuela, during his time in St. Louis, and more recent work developed in Chicago in 2026. By assembling works from distinct periods, the exhibition foregrounds continuities and shifts in Salazar-Lermont’s approach to performance, video, and socially engaged practices. The presentation resists a linear narrative, instead emphasizing recurring concerns that persist across contexts, including migration, cultural translation, and the construction of Latin American identity. A central component of the exhibition is Sacramento (2026), a collaborative work developed with Chilean artist Fernando Saldivia Yáñez, an alumnus of the School of the Art Institute of Chicago and faculty member in the Film, Video, New Media, and Animation (FVNMA) department.
