Self, Made: Fourteen Modern Artists from the Richard and Ellen Sandor Family Collection

Lee Godie captioned one of her photo-booth self-portraits with a note to herself about which side of her face to show, as if she had to talk herself into the pose. From 1968 until the late 1980s she lived outdoors between the Art Institute and the Drake Hotel, selling her paintings on this museum's steps. Now she is inside, in Gallery 188.

She is one of 14 artists from the collection of Richard and Ellen Sandor, an economist and an artist who hung self-taught makers beside art-world names in their Gold Coast apartment, in a room they called the "Outsiders' Café". You'll find William Edmondson's carved stone eagle in the same show as Cindy Sherman, Kara Walker, John Waters and Annette Messager, mostly photographs, drawings and sculpture the Sandors gave the museum.

Come for people who invented themselves. It is included with museum admission ($32 for adults, less for Illinois and Chicago residents) and closes on 9 November.
