It's a cherished tradition in the Valley art scene: the annual "Chaos Theory" exhibition.

Dozens of Phoenix artists contributed work to this year's show, which was held at Legend City Studios, the downtown space co-owned by organizer Randy Slack.

The 24th edition of Chaos Theory was held Oct. 4 and 5. Here's a look back.
