Join us on Saturday, July 30th from 8-10PM to celebrate Sarah Leuchtner’s new installation in the Whistler Storefront Gallery.

Sarah Leuchtner is a Chicago-based contemporary artist working in painting, drawing and sculpture. Born and raised in Chicago, she draws inspiration from city life and her surroundings, as well as iconography, contemporary culture, vintage signage, guilty pleasure media and television. Leuchtner’s imagery includes an alphabet of imagined or found shapes, varying interpretations of the grid, and a combination of what has been and what is to come. Leuchtner works out of her studio in the East Garfield Park neighborhood of Chicago.

Leuchtner received her BFA from the School of the Art Institute of Chicago in 2016. A selection of her recent exhibitions in Chicago include; Lawrence and Clark Gallery, Hans Gallery, and Bianca Bova Gallery, as well as Northeastern Illinois University. She showed at NADA Chicago in 2020 and EXPO Chicago in 2022. Leuchtner was included in a museum show at The CICA Museum of Contemporary Art in South Korea in 2020. She has also exhibited in New York at Below Grand Gallery (formerly Superdutchess Gallery) and at the International Centre for the Arts in Monte Castello, Italy. Leuchtner has upcoming solo exhibitions at Belong Gallery (Chicago) in November 2022 and at Cleaner Gallery (Chicago) in March 2023.
