Revolution Tattoo & Art Gallery came to be as a result of the vision of Cheri Basak and Omar Gutierrez. They wanted to provide an ever-changing, creative environment for themselves and more importantly, their clients. Most of the artwork shown and sold here is illustrative, usually low-brow, religious, sexual, sometimes controversial, and for obvious reasons, tattoo related. We have been operating successfully as an art gallery since 2002 and have featured many local fine artists and tattoo artists. To keep everyone artistically inspired, we change our exhibitions every six to eight weeks, not to mention our opening night receptions are legendary. For information on upcoming shows or if you are interested in submitting artwork for future exhibits please contact Cheri Basak.

Cheri Basak, co-owner/curator of Revolution Tattoo & Art Gallery is always looking to view new artwork that will appeal to our clientele. Please contact her at 773.486.8888 or via email.
