The Chicago Imagist gallery is a group of paintings, sculptures, drawings and prints by artists who exhibited as the Hairy Who, Nonplussed Some and False Image. They are now called the Chicago Imagists. Chicago Imagism shows the human body as distorted, stylized and colorful. The artwork embraces political, racial and sexual content in a humorous manner.

​

Chicago Imagism can be dated back to earlier works made by a group of post-World War II artists known as Monster Roster. These artists drove off the line of style established in the 1960s, shown in the work of this gallery.
