The Merchandise Mart has pulled the plug on the latest incarnation of Art Chicago, ending the three-decade run of what was once considered one of the world's most important art exhibitions.

Exit Art, the New York alternative art space, which previously announced plans to close after the death of its cofounder Jeanette Ingberman, will mount its final exhibition on March 23.
