Chicago's Art Institute of Chicago holds 3 works by Amedeo Modigliani (1884–1920) — the city's entire known holding of this artist in a single institution.
Modigliani's elongated portraits and nudes — the almond eyes, the long necks, the simplified forms — are among the most distinctive images in early 20th-century art. In person, the paint surface of his best work is richly textured, and the faces have a psychological presence that their stylisation seems at first to preclude.

The Art Institute of Chicago is at Millennium Park — take the Red or Green CTA line to Adams/Wabash. Allow at least three hours; the Impressionist collection alone warrants a full morning. Illinois residents receive free entry on select days.
