Since opening in 2004, Corbett vs. Dempsey has presented a range of international artists as well as artists connected with the historical and contemporary legacy of Chicago. The gallery’s mission has included extensive exploration of widely known artists, including Ellen Berkenblit, Brian Calvin, Arturo Herrera, Charline von Heyl, Dick Higgins, Rebecca Morris, Albert Oehlen, Joyce Pensato, Arlene Shechet, and Christopher Wool, supporting emerging and mid-career figures including Christina Forrer, Gabrielle Garland, Magalie Guérin, David Hartt, Celeste Rapone, Rebecca Shore, Lui Shtini, Cauleen Smith, John Sparagana, Omar Velázquez, and Molly Zuckerman-Hartung, and championing artists of critical significance to post-war Chicago including Margot Bergman, Dominick Di Meo, Edward Flood, Philip Hanson, Thomas H. Kapsalis, Robert Lostutter, Christina Ramberg, Diane Simpson, Karl Wirsum, and Jimmy Wright.
Creative music has always been a feature of the gallery’s activities; in addition to having its own record label, CvsD is proud to represent Peter Brötzmann and the estate of Sun Ra.

3-D Doings Book Launch Featuring Ian Berry, John Corbett, and Jim Dempsey
Six years and every bit worth the wait, the giant catalog for 3-D Doings: The Imagist Object in Chicago Art, a 2019 exhibition at the Tang Teaching Museum in Saratoga Springs, New York, curated by Tang director Ian Berry and CvsD's Corbett and Dempsey. The book, which is bursting with color, interviews with living Imagists, and a cover sporting actual tufts of hair (!), will be on hand as the curators discuss the concept of the show and the artists in the book. A wonderful synchronicity with the current CvsD exhibitions, Aaron Curry and Nick Drnaso, both of whom are presenting work in the 3-D Doings lineage.
