EVANSTON – The unique and popular Pop Up Art Show featuring the sale of one-a-kind fine art created by well known area artists - some award winning - continues through February 19 in a 1,200 square foot Evanston storefront.

The show runs every day from 10:00 a.m. to 6:00 p.m. at 1627 Chicago Ave., in Evanston (across from Whole Foods). Admission is free. For more information, please call (847) 881-6026, or email popupartshow@gmail.com.

Created by well known art gallerist Joy Horwich and her daughters, Jill Bernstein, Highland Park; and Penny Keeshin, Deerfield; the show displays the celebrated work of 30 artists, including:

Deborah Eppstein and Jack Kraig (both of Evanston), Judith Roth, Laurie Rubin, Phillip Feitelberg, Chuck Wickler, Mark McMahon, Gary Weidner, Gretchen Sigmund, Joyce and Steve Rebora, Rebecca Zemans, Eileen Neill, Eric Jensen, Nina Weiss, Ezra Siegel, Didier Nolet, Anna Dibble, Susan Clayton, Jill Specks, Robert T. Knill, John Showalter, Scott Fincher, and Scott Fishman.

Said Horwich: "The show features a diverse mix of painters, photographers, sculptors, ceramists, and jewelers. All their work is colorful, delightful, and finely executed. Everything is for sale. This is a nice way to herald these fine artists.”

This is the third such Pop Up Art Show created and run by Horwich, Bernstein, and Keeshin; the first was a one-week event in Highland Park, the second was held one weekend last October at Steinhafels new, 101,000 square foot, state-of-the-art furniture store in Vernon Hills.

Followers of Horwich, who for 25 years operated the Joy Horwich Gallery on Ontario Street in Chicago, are expected to view the elaborate display of art work and jewelry. The art consultant also is highly regarded for her guided "Joy-us-Jaunts" tours, including day trips and excursions to art events in Chicago, its suburbs, and other cities in the U.S. and around the world.

The Pop Up Art Show is a trend which started in London that involves showcasing the work of select artists at a variety of unique venues for a limited amount of time.
