The Art Institute of Chicago.

The AIC, founded in 1879 as both a museum and school, opened on its present site at Michigan Avenue and Adams Street in 1893. Built on rubble from the 1871 Chicago fire, the museum housed a collection of plaster casts and had a visionary purpose: to acquire and exhibit art of all kinds and to conduct programs of education. The collection now encompasses more than 5,000 years of human expression from cultures around the world, and the school’s graduate program is continually ranked as one of the best in the country. Recently a new modern wing, designed by the famous Italian architect Renzo Piano, has been opened, making the AIC the second biggest museum in the US. (www.artic.edu/aic)
