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

Mercury Gallery was opened in 1994 by Amnon Goldman with a focus on the work of the New York expressionist group known as The Ten. 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.
