Paul,
You are fortunate to be coming to a city rich in fine-art photography.
Besides the Art Institute, the Museum of Contemporary Art, and the
Museum of Contemporary Photography, there are many photography
galleries, five of which (Edelman, Weinberg, Hauser, Schneider, and
Daiter) are all within a block of each other in the River North
neighborhood, near the Loop. (There's even a Leica store with a gallery
right next to Weinberg.) Right now at the Art Institute are two shows:
Irving Penn's street detritus work
(http://www.artic.edu/exhibition/irving-penn-underfoot), and the group
show, "When Collecting was New"
(http://www.artic.edu/exhibition/when-collecting-was-new-photographs-robert-taub-collection).
(I'm seeing both today.) Daiter now has a group show of landscape
photography
(http://www.stephendaitergallery.com/dynamic/exhibit_display.asp?Exhibit=Current&EventID=2).
