“Big. Bold. Brilliant.," the theme of Goodman Theatre’s 2015/2016 Season, infused the evening of the Season Opening Celebration on September 21 honoring the company’s Artistic Collective—a group of world-class
artists who call the Goodman their creative home. Individually and collectively, these artists’ contributions to the Goodman provide a diverse scope of theatrical style and vision. This Artistic Collective includes
Robert Falls, Brian Dennehy, Rebecca Gilman, Henry Godinez, Steve Scott, Chuck Smith, Regina Taylor, Henry Wishcamper and Mary Zimmerman. On this night, 300 guests gathered at the Standard Club, where they enjoyed cocktails
and a three-course dinner before proceeding to Goodman’s 856-seat Albert Theatre for the sold-out opening night performance of Disgraced, Ayad Akhtar’s Pulitzer Prize-winning “daring…hard-hitting drama” (Chicago Tribune) that was directed by Kimberly Senior. After the show, guests continued the celebration at an after-party at River Roast hosted by Chicago's Levy
Restaurants and James Beard Award-winning chef Tony Mantuano. “When I became the Artistic Director of the Goodman Theatre nearly three decades ago, I knew that the creation of an artistic vision for a truly great theater could not depend on the ideas and talents of one person alone,” explained Falls to the attendees. “If the Goodman were going to
be, as I hoped it would, a theater for all of the residents of Chicago, it needed to reflect the enormous diversity of the city in its artistic leadership.” The first artists invited
into this group were directors with whom Falls had enjoyed a close creative relationship during his years as artistic director of the Wisdom Bridge Theatre, Frank Galati and Michael Maggio. Within a few years, the group had expanded to include new
voices--directors David Petrarca and Mary Zimmerman--and established talents--Chuck Smith, whose decades of work in Chicago had made him the unofficial dean of the city’s African American theater community, and triple-threat actor/playwright/director Regina Taylor. Other associates—including actor/educator Cheryl Lynn Bruce and actor/director
Harry Lennix—would soon join the Collective, contribute to the evolution of the Goodman’s diverse aesthetic, then move on to pursue careers in other performance arenas, leaving an indelible impact on the distinctive identity of the Goodman. Today’s Artistic Collective is widely regarded by critics, audiences and theater professionals as the most accomplished of its kind in the American theater. Amen to that!

More than 150 art world influencers, artists, community leaders, philanthropists and cultural leaders gathered on Chicago’s South Side on Saturday, September 19, in celebration of the Rebuild Foundation’s inaugural BUILD/REBUILD Benefit. Established by Theaster Gates Jr. in 2010 and overseen by CEO Ken Stewart, the Rebuild Foundation welcomed guests to a private viewing of the newly restored Stony Island Arts
Bank, the Foundation’s largest and most ambitious project to date. The evening was hosted by honorary co-chairs Amy Rule and her husband, the Mayor. The host committee of ‘Builders’ included Anita Blanchard, Lisa Yun Lee, Liz and Eric
Lefkofsky, Sandy Reynolds, Cari and Michael J. Sacks, Chelsea and James Smith, and Chance the Rapper. Attendees enjoyed a cocktail hour that included a private viewing of the new, 17,000 square foot space and inaugural
installation by Portuguese artist Carlos Bunga that premiered to the public on October 3rd as part of the Chicago Architecture Biennial. (This event on Saturday attracted over 1400). Designed by William Gibbons Uffendell and built in 1923, the bank fell into disrepair in the 1980s and remained abandoned until purchased by Theaster Gates and the Foundation in 2012. Newly
restored, the Stony Island Arts Bank will provide a platform for site specific commissions and exhibitions, a venue for artist and scholar residencies and archival collections essential to the history of art,
architecture and black culture. Visitors were seated for dinner at tables with pottery created by Gates and treated to the culinary inventions of mk Executive Chef, Erick Williams. Guests enjoyed remarks by CEO Ken Stewart and Artistic Director Gates plus a reading of a personalized
letter to the artist by President Obama and First Lady Michelle. An impromptu speech by fellow artist Carrie Mae Weems followed. The evening continued upstairs with musical performances by Meshell Ndegeocello and Jebin Bruni, followed by Jason Moran and
Gates, before dancing the night away to deejay Alan King who led the after-party spinning records from the Stony Island Arts Bank’s collection of the archives of “godfather of house music” Frankie Knuckles. Special guests included artists David Adjaye (architect), Cheryl Lynn Bruce, Nick Cave, Glenn Ligon, Kerry James
Marshall, Chris Ofili, Lorna Simpson, Mike Starn, Hank Willis Thomas, and Carrie Mae Weems. U.S. and City Officials in attendance included Michelle T. Boone (Commissioner of the City of Chicago’s Department of Cultural Affairs and Special
Events), Penny Pritzker (U.S. Secretary of Commerce Directors and Curators), Ian Alteveer (Associate Curator of Modern and Contemporary Art, Metropolitan Museum of Art), Michael Darling (Chief Curator at MCA Chicago), Okwui Enwezor (Curator of the 56th International Art Exhibition of the Venice Biennale), Thelma Golden (Director of Studio Museum

EXPO CHICAGO and The MCA’s Vernissage welcomed more than 7,000 guests on opening night of this world renowned art fair, now in its 4th year. “I want to extend the deepest thanks and appreciation to Tony Karman and the entire EXPO CHICAGO team
for ensuring that Chicago is spoken about in the same sentence as world class art fairs once again and always,” said Michelle T. Boone (Chicago's Commissioner of Public and Cultural Affairs).“Not only has EXPO CHICAGO cemented Chicago’s place as
an international art fair, but Tony has done a tremendous job to connect the fair to the city through numerous collaborations and partnerships with our galleries, museums and cultural institutions extending the reach of EXPO city wide.” EXPO CHICAGO presented artwork from
140 leading galleries, representing 16 countries and 47 cities from around the world, and included EXPOSURE—a section that afforded younger galleries the opportunity to participate in a major
international art fair. Karman (event founder) then introduced MCA Chicago’s Pritzker Director Madeleine Grynsztejn. “It is in Chicago’s DNA that really magical things happen when the business sector, cultural sector and civic sector of our city join together to support art education, and that is exactly what is happening tonight.” She added,
“Every penny from tonight goes to education and exhibition programs for students and people of all ages." Karman closed by saying, “This exposition fuels the cultural ecosystem of Chicago." With that, a bottle of Champagne was popped and all rejoiced in a celebratory toast. Immediately
following Vernissage, guests were invited to the official after-party on the Spirit of Chicago boat docked at Navy Pier. Co-produced with CIMMfest and sponsored by The Beaches of Fort Myers and Sanibel, the party kept guests dancing to music by The Cecy Santana Band and DJ Warp with Saraswathi Ranganathan.
The kick-off party for the 51st Chicago International Film Festival attracted more than 250 friends, filmmakers, sponsors and board members to the Roof of the Godfrey Hotel on September 21. Hosted by media sponsor Dan Uslan of Michigan Avenue Mag
