Best Gallery:
Green Gallery
The Green Gallery got its start in a Riverwest attic in 2004. And founder John Riepenhoff's gleefully experimental approach to art dealing has paid off – the gallery represents internationally acclaimed artists like José Lerma, whose work has been featured in solo exhibitions at the Museum of Contemporary Art in Chicago and elsewhere. Riepenhoff's exhibition roster injects some edginess to the local art scene, and for that we applaud him.
