Inman Gallery - Houston - USA

Inman Gallery was founded by Kerry Inman in 1990 as a project space dedicated to showcasing the work of younger artists who were under-recognized by the contemporary gallery scene in Houston of the late 80's. Since that time, Inman Gallery has steadily grown into a nationally recognized venue that encourages innovative, thoughtful visual presentations and nurtures talent. Emphasizing visual exploration and conceptual thinking over purely formal solutions have been cornerstones of the gallery programming since its inception.
The gallery mission is three-fold: 1) to showcase the work of a select group of artists, helping to grow the reach of their visions, locally, nationally and internationally, 2) to encourage the local community to support contemporary art-making by collecting the work of living artists and 3) to provide a supportive venue for education and the exchange of ideas. We accomplish these goals through a series of exhibitions which include solo shows for gallery artists, and carefully selected group exhibitions designed to provoke discussion and educate the viewer about particular ideas or trends. Gallery publications accompany several exhibitions per year.
The gallery was recognized in 2003 by the International Art Critics Association (AICA-USA). Dario Robleto's solo exhibition was awarded first place for “Best solo exhibition in a commercial gallery nationally”. Two gallery artists, Dario Robleto and Robyn O'Neil were included in the 2004 Whitney Biennial. Gallery artist Amy Blakemore was included in the 2006 Whitney Biennial.
On July 9, 2004, Inman Gallery held its first exhibition in the gallery's beautiful new quarters in Houston's up and coming Midtown district, located less than a mile from the city's Museum District.

John Cleary Gallery - Houston - USA

John Cleary opened the gallery in 1996, in its current location on Gallery Row, and the gallery has evolved into the premier photography gallery in Houston. His passion for the medium was apparent, his knowledge evident, and his honesty as an art dealer unparallel. His personal collection of photographs of children, referred to as his “Kid Collection,” is known around the world, and his preference for mid-century French street photography is still evident in the gallery today.
Unfortunately, John passed away in February of 2008. His greatest wish was that the gallery continue, realizing that a gaping hole would be left in the Houston art world if it were to close. Having worked with John since 1999 as the gallery’s manager and director, I seemed the logical choice, and I take the responsibility of carrying on the John Cleary Gallery tradition with all the gravitas it is due.Even though my job has changed drastically since John’s passing, my passion for this business has not. My philosophy on dealing art has always been that it is not my job to sell anything to anyone. I am here to present work, offer information, and facilitate one finding a photography that will enhance his or her life. I love meeting first-time collectors who are really excited about a purchase, and I find a lot of joy in tracking down a rare or sold-out piece for a collector with a special request.

Berenberg Gallery - Boston - USA

The Berenberg Gallery (est. 1999) brings to the Boston area the dynamic creations of contemporary folk and self-taught artists. Working outside and often unaware of the conventions of the mainstream art world, these artists produce rich, highly personal images that reflect their inner world as well as the world around them. Many self-taught artists create their art in isolation due to rural lifestyles, institutionalization, and physical or emotional disabilities. At times using only available or recycled materials, they create distinctive works of art that are diverse in style, technique, and subject matter. Drawings, paintings, sculptures, textiles, and ceramics give shape to the artists' visions from the whimsical to the profound. Berenberg Gallery showcases the work of both established and emerging artists.
Lorri Berenberg opened the Berenberg Gallery after completing a twenty­five year career in museum education. As associate director of education at the Museum of Fine Arts, Boston she developed some of the museum's most popular and innovative programs. Her passion for contemporary folk and self-taught art comes as a natural extension of her work with artists, individuals with disabilities, and members of diverse communities.

Mercury Gallery - Boston - USA

The group formed in 1935 and counted Mark Rothko, Louis Schanker, Adolph Gottlieb and Joseph Solman among its members.

Mercury Gallery exhibits paintings, works on paper, sculpture and ceramics by twenty established artists, whose work has received national and international recognition and acclaim. The gallery emphasizes the important historical and visual link between the 1930s work of The Ten and its contemporary artists, who share a philosophy articulated by Joseph Solman: “I have long discovered for myself that what we call the subject yields more pattern, more poetry, more drama, greater abstract design and tension than any shapes we may invent.”In 2001, Mercury Gallery in Rockport, Massachusetts opened, featuring work by the same artists with an emphasis on works depicting Cape Ann.
Amnon Goldman, Director, has worked in the arts for over thirty-five years. He ran a gallery in Israel, was a private art dealer in London and has worked as a designer, teacher and curator.

Huff Harrington Fine Art - Atlanta - USA

What happens when two committed Francophiles and art lovers get together over a bottle of red wine? A fine arts gallery with a little je ne sais quoi is born.
Huff Harrington Fine Art, Ltd. is the collaboration of two Atlanta women, Ann Huff and Meg Harrington. Prior to establishing our joint gallery, we separately represented more than 20 American and European artists. For several years, we actively and successfully sold fine art privately in metro Atlanta. Over the years, we became friends and fans of each other’s work. It was a natural progression to merge our businesses and open a retail gallery.
Next came the task of finding gallery space. We were delighted to find our cottage, located in Atlanta’s busy Buckhead neighborhood. With plenty of wall space, excellent lighting and homey feel, we knew the cottage was perfect and in keeping with our philosophy of selling art in a comfortable, homey and friendly environment.
Over the years, we’ve found that our taste in art has connected well with that of our clients. We feel strongly that one of our goals at Huff Harrington Fine Art, Ltd. is to responsibly help our clients begin or expand their collection of art from established and emerging artists. Part of that responsibility is to represent reputable artists whom we know and like, and to offer original art that is unique, enjoyable and attainable.
Likewise, we are deeply committed to promoting and growing with our artists. Our wide repertoire includes local, regional and out-of-state artists, and several French painters whom we’ve gotten to know and respect over the course of many extended trips to Provence. Our finely selected art ranges from traditional, impressionistic paintings to modern, abstract work. In fact, we like to think there’s something at this gallery to suit every art lover's taste.

Mason Murer Fine Art - Atlanta - USA

Mason Murer Fine Art was opened in May of 2004 by gallery owner Mark Mason Karelson and art collector Glenn Murer. The two businessmen had been developing a relationship over the years: Karelson owned The Modern Primitive Gallery in Atlanta’s Morningside neighborhood, and Murer, a developer and entrepreneur, was a frequent customer.
At Modern Primitive, the focus had long been on folk and outsider art, but the two men shared an interest in emerging artists. Karelson had begun showing more contemporary work, broadening the scope of his roster, and Murer was collecting the works of local talent. They frequently discussed launching a new gallery space that would allow for a wide range of discipline and content, from the commercial to the experimental, and the opportunity came when one of Glenn Murer's large commercial properties became available.
The 24,000 square foot space on Armour Drive was a bit off the beaten path, but it was convenient to the concentration of interior design businesses in the area, and large enough to accommodate several galleries, or possibly even a mix of exhibition spaces, artist studios, and food service. Karelson and Murer met with architect Amy Landesberg to discuss the possibilities. Eventually, it became clear that the only way to proceed was to create a single massive gallery space unlike anything else in the Southeast. The challenge then became how to best convert the unstructured industrial space into a venue that allowed for the display of painting, sculpture, and photography without overwhelming the viewer.
Landesberg decided that the large uninterrupted interior of the building needed to be subdivided into small, intimate spaces that would allow for the exhibition of small format works as well as larger paintings, sculpture, and installation pieces. Instead of carving the space into a warren of rooms and hallways, the final design called for a series of freestanding pods, each creating a semi-enclosed gallery within the gallery. These white roofless structures vary in size, shape, and height, creating the illusion of a minimalist walled city arranged around a central plaza, which constitutes the main gallery. This allows for the staging of multiple shows at the same time. The pods also feature carefully aligned portals, creating intriguing lines of sight, allowing a viewer in the main gallery a glimpse of several exhibits simultaneously.
Mason Murer Fine Art has become an art and special event destination, hosting several exhibitions a year and showcasing a wide range of work from the Southeast and around the world. Its unique interior has made the gallery an in-demand venue for corporate parties, non-profit fundraisers, and cultural events.

Lowe Art Gallery - Atlanta - USA

Under the ownership and direction of Bill Lowe, Bill Lowe Gallery represents artists who share powerful and eloquent visions supported by a highly advanced mastery of their media. The Lowe's stable is noted for the visceral emotional quality and the sheer physicality of its work. These qualities lend a highly theatrical flavor to the gallery's offering.
Imagistically, the gallery's scope ranges from complex, narratively-driven, figurative works to those which skew to the extremes of meditative minimalism. Thematically, the gallery's aesthetic is characterized by a metaphysical yearning articulated by process and imagery which is strongly psycho-spiritual and psycho-sexual in nature.
Bill Lowe Gallery maintains an accelerated exhibition schedule which features three one-person shows per month. Typically, the gallery will juxtapose an internationally renowned artist in its grand salon with a mid-career and emerging artist in adjoining galleries. Each show features strong elements of sculpture, painting and drawing.
Bill Lowe Gallery has gained an international reputation for its curatorial skills. Committed to a standard of excellence amplified by great visual drama, the gallery's ability to mount exhibitions which resonate powerfully with critics and viewers alike has become legend.
In 2002, Bill Lowe Gallery expanded to the West Coast with a spectacular second gallery located in Santa Monica, California. Modeled after the Atlanta gallery, the Santa Monica venue offers the same rich configuration of style and content long associated with our vision. Both galleries have become the scene of a diverse and potent array of special events that have helped forge a deeper, broader culture around Bill Lowe Gallery. These include special fundraisers for organizations ranging from The Elton John AIDS Foundation, Make A Wish Foundation, and Camp Sunshine to more personal events such as the "post-party" for Neil Young's recent film. The Santa Monica gallery provides a bi-coastal perspective to the gallery's long-term plans which include a third gallery in New York.
In August 2008, Bill Lowe moved his legendary art gallery to a new, 13,000 square foot, two story space at Two Peachtree Pointe in the heart of Midtown Atlanta. The multi- level Bill Lowe Gallery features architecturally provocative design elements including 18-foot high loft style cement ceilings, interior catwalks, mezzanines and bridges.

A creative mind, Anne established Anne Irwin Fine Art in 1985, setting out to illuminate emerging regional artists. Anne worked as an agent for these artists as well, engaging other galleries around the nation to more closely examine the undiscovered talents of the day. Her eye for excellence paid off, and now many of those artists have work hanging in some of the country’s most coveted galleries, including Anne’s own fine art gallery on Bennett Street in Buckhead.
More than 20 years later, Anne Irwin Fine Art is thriving with creative energy and artistic pursuits. Anne Irwin edits judiciously when selecting works for her space, representing a lively mix of more than 30 premier contemporary artists from as close by as Atlanta and as far away as California and Canada. The gallerist travels to the West Coast and New York scouting new talents, seeking the perfect artists to introduce to the South. Anne regularly takes her staff on educational art trips, ensuring that they have much to offer her collectors and artists in both knowledge and understanding.
Anne Irwin Fine Art offers extensive knowledge, training and experience in selecting just the right artists to suit the tastes of individuals, businesses and corporations at every level. Irwin’s personal philosophy is that art is very powerful and, when displayed, has the ability to either uplift or depress the spirit. It is her goal to uplift the surroundings of the collector with meaningful art painted by dedicated artists. Irwin is an approachable gallerist, and her gallery is one of the most highly regarded destinations for collecting fine art in Atlanta.

Alan Avery Art Company's ambition is to remain at the cutting edge in presenting art, while making a major contribution to art education and art appreciation in the community. Alan Avery Art Company constantly searches for artists whose goal is not to reinvent techniques, but to push their techniques, surface and mediums to their limits.

Any artist should know the classical rules of line, perspective, composition and color. Alan Avery Art Company looks for artists who venture beyond these limits to convey a piece of their inner selves--a piece of their souls," says owner Alan Avery.

Galerie Jamileh Weber - Zürich - SUI

Jamileh Weber opened her gallery in Zurich in 1974. At that time a group of young artists was emerging in Zurich who were making personal, complex, narrative statements at a time when critical attention addressed itself, for the most part, to "mainstream art" (including "minimalism", "color-field", "pop", and impersonal art). It was this very exciting, local phenomenon in Zurich that prompted Jamileh Weber to become involved with living artists. By 1980, she had established a stable of artists there, such as Mario Comensoli, Manon, Rosina Kuhn or Alex Sadkowsky.

Galerie Mark Müller - Zürich - SUI

Die Galerie Mark Müller wurde 1990 in Zürich gegründet. Sie verfolgt seit anhin ein klares, kontinuierliches Programm mit nationalen und internationalen Positionen, die regelmässig in konzentriertem Zeitraum in den Räumlichkeiten der Galerie ausgestellt werden. Die von ihr vertretenen Künstler stammen aus der Schweiz, Deutschland, Frankreich, Australien, Neuseeland und den USA. Neben der Betreuung von bereits etablierten Künstlern wird in der Galerietätigkeit dem Aufbau und der Entwicklung von jungen Künstlern besonders Gewicht beigemessen.
Schwerpunkte der gezeigten Arbeiten sind im abstrakten, konzeptuellen und radikalen Bereich der zeitgenössischen Malerei, Zeichnung und Skulptur angesiedelt; einzelne Positionen fokussieren exakt auf die Spannungsfelder der verschiedenen Techniken und Ansätze und bewegen sich innerhalb derselben. Dabei werden die Räume der Galerie zuweilen zu ganzen Installationsträgern: Wände werden bemalt oder besprayt, der Boden durchbohrt oder ausgehoben und die vorgegebene Architektur der Räume als Ausgangs- oder Dreh- und Angelpunkt in das Kunstwerk integriert.
Des Weiteren ermöglicht die Galerie seit einigen Jahren jungen Künstlern eine Ausstellungsmöglichkeit im sogenannten Guestroom, parallel zu den Ausstellungen in den Haupträumlichkeiten.

Havana Galerie - Zürich - SUI

Nach meiner mehrjährigen Unterrichtstätigkeit in Kuba und nach zwei Ausstellungen mit kubanischer Kunst, die ich in Zürich organisierte, eröffnete ich im März 1998 die Havana Galerie.
Dank der ausgezeichneten Ausbildung, welche die jungen Kubanerinnen und Kubaner geniessen, entstehen künstlerisch hochstehende und handwerklich professionelle Arbeiten, die sich in ihren Bildfindungen in einem internationalen zeitgenössischen Kontext bewegen.
Oft spielen in ihren Werken religiöse Themen eine Rolle, die jedoch für uns kaum als solche zu erkennen sind, werden doch Symbole, Mythen und Philosophien hauptsächlich aus den afrokubanischen Religionen geschöpft. Andere Künstler befassen sich mit der politischen Situation des Landes, dem Inseldasein und Alltagssituationen, gemischt mit Träumen, Aggressionen und Erotik.
Die Formensprachen die benutzt werden, sind so verschieden wie die Menschen die sie kreieren. Wie überall auf der Welt, wo wahrhaftige Künstler am Werk sind, und davon hat es in Kuba in der aktuellen Generation sehr viele. Zu sagen haben sie alle etwas, das ist nicht verpönt, es wird ausdrücklich gefordert.
So ist auch das internationale Interesse gegenüber dem kubanischen Kunstschaffen gross, wird doch damit in unserer Zeit ein echter kultureller Beitrag geliefert. Es ist mir ein Anliegen, einen Teil dieses Reichtums in meiner Galerie zu präsentieren.

Delicious Artspace - Zürich - SUI

Delicious Artspace was founded in Berlin in 2000 and is located in Zurich since 2009. We are focused on upcoming young art and want to open up unconventional modes of presenting art for public consumption. The aim is to make artistic works comprehensible and tangible within a wider objective reality.
The projects of Delicious Artspace attempt to explore cultural practices and examine them in terms of their usefulness. The underlying approach is that art is comprehended as a process that represents not the individual output of a single person, but always arises in a context that has an effect on the art itself. We feature works from artists from 47°22' N to 64°10' N. All projects are collectively staged and are developed in close cooperation with the artists; the exhibitions, shows and projects are the result of an intensive and creative exchange regarding the theory of art.
In line with the broader understanding of art in the present day, a diverse range of forms of expression in contemporary art finds a place at Delicious Artspace. In addition to the classic forms such as painting, sculpture, photography and graphic arts, forms such as installations, video art and fashion are also represented.
