CLOSING SOON! The Cleve Carney Museum of Art (CCMA), located on the College of DuPage campus (425 Fawell Blvd.), will present “Chair-ish,” the first collaborative exhibition between Chicago-based artists Alex Chitty and Norman Teague. In this exhibition, Chitty and Teague explore material, memory and spatial dialogue through distinct yet complementary practices.

“Chair-ish” opened in January and will close on April 11, 2026.

In this exhibition Chitty and Teague explore material, memory, and spatial dialogue through distinct yet complementary practices. Both Chitty’s sculptural investigations and Teague’s work disrupt perception and gesture toward the poetic in the everyday; drawing on vernacular design, cultural heritage, and the social histories embedded in form. The artists examine the intimacy of the objects we interact with daily.
