Zolla/Lieberman Gallery was established in 1976 by Roberta Lieberman and Robert Zolla within a then-desolate industrial neighborhood now known as the River North Gallery District. They transformed a vacant industrial space into a hub for contemporary art, laying the foundation for the thriving art community that the area is today.
Now located at 325 W Huron St, William Lieberman continues to uphold the legacy of quality and professionalism established since the gallery’s founding. Z/L represents a diverse range of artists and genres that offer a dynamic view of contemporary art in Chicago. They are dedicated to providing personal attention to both beginning and established collectors, as well as other art professionals.

Together, we will talk about the themes that shape her work, including questions of mortality, spirituality, and imagination, and how she uses materials and intuition to create an environment where the natural and the supernatural meet. This is a chance to hear directly from Lora about how she moves from idea to finished piece, and how her vision of the romantic sublime continues to grow.
Coffee, pastries, and light refreshments will be served.
