Sideshow Gallery - New York - USA

.
Sideshow Gallery was founded by Richard Timperio in 1999 to create a space that would foster young Williamsburg artists, giving them exposure and a means to create a dialogue with the larger artists community.

Timperio was an urban pioneer, who moved to Williamsburg 1979 when the neighborhood was dangerous and desolate.

“Williamsburg was a place for cheap rent and space and was removed from everything else,” Timperio said. “It was a place for working artists, but it had no outlets.”

I opened the first incarnation of Sideshow as an experiment in 1994 in a coffee shop on Bedford Avenue. “At that time, the main event was across the river. There was no place for people to congregate and exchange ideas,” “Sideshow provided a stage for unseen work.”

The gallery rapidly gained a following and soon moved across the street to an 11-foot wide storefront. Since September 2000, the gallery has resided at 319 Bedford Avenue the Champs Élysées of Williamsburg between South 2nd and South 3rd streets.

Now one of the largest private exhibitions spaces in Brooklyn, the gallery has remained committed to the concept of its artist/ founder, Richard Timperio, “that visual art is a language of the eyes as much as music is the language of the ear.” His mission is to provide a forum for “ all art that attains a high level of quality embodies integrity, regardless of style or approach. Where the art itself is the only thing that matters.” The Sideshow Gallery continues to show works by Brooklyn based emerging as well as an impressive line up of more established artists such as Chris Martin, Jonas Mekas, Larry Poons, Thornton Willis, Dan Christensen, Richard Mock, TODT, Robert C. Morgan, Robert Murray, Tadasky and many others, including traveling exhibitions from other institutions and on an international basis.

Exhibitions at the Sideshow Gallery have been reviewed in The Brooklyn Rail, The New Criterion, Art In America, The New York Times, The New York Observer, The New York Sun and other publications.

In addition to painting, Timperio has worked as an illustrator for The New York Times and as art director
for Showtime at the Apollo Theatre.

Allen Sheppard Gallery - New York - USA

.
The Allen Sheppard Gallery was established in 1994 as a home and program for emerging artists who are primarily interested in representational art -- painting, drawing and photography. Its founder, Allen Sheppard, an avid collector, committed to the goal of finding works of art that moved the viewer without the requirement of intellectual rationale to validate the work. An intriguing visual engagement or a visceral response of delight were the only prerequisites for selecting works for the gallery. Although this goal remains in place today the gallery has eagerly experimented in many art forms including non-traditional sculpture and installations. But exploring, witnessing the endless mysteries of painting and its profound rewards remain the central focus of the gallery’s mission.

Sperone Westwater Fischer was founded in 1975, when Italian art dealer Gian Enzo Sperone, Angela Westwater, and German art dealer Konrad Fischer opened a space at 142 Greene Street in SoHo, New York. (The gallery's name was changed to Sperone Westwater in 1982.) An additional space was later established at 121 Greene Street. The founders' original program showcased a European avant-garde alongside a core group of American artists to whom its founders were committed. Notable early exhibitions include a 1977 show of minimalist works by Carl Andre, Dan Flavin, Donald Judd, and Sol Lewitt; seven of Bruce Nauman's seminal early shows; eleven Richard Long exhibitions; and the installation of one of Mario Merz's celebrated glass and neon igloos in 1979 -- part of the gallery's ongoing dedication to Arte Povera artists, including Alighiero Boetti. Other early historical exhibitions at the Greene Street space include a 1989 group show, "Early Conceptual Works," which featured the work of On Kawara, Bruce Nauman, Alighiero Boetti, and Joseph Kosuth, among others; a 1999 Fontana exhibition titled "Gold: Gothic Masters and Lucio Fontana"; and selected presentations of work by Piero Manzoni. From May 2002 to May 2010, the gallery was located at 415 West 13 Street, in a 10,000-square foot space in the Meatpacking District.

Renowned American artists Bruce Nauman and Susan Rothenberg have been with Sperone Westwater since 1975 and 1987, respectively. They are joined by established and internationally-recognized artists, including Guillermo Kuitca, Richard Long, Malcolm Morley, Evan Penny, William Wegman and Not Vital, as well as a younger generation of artists like Bertozzi & Casoni, Wim Delvoye, Kim Dingle, Charles LeDray, Tom Sachs, Jan Worst and Liu Ye.

Sperone Westwater also has in its inventory work by Carla Accardi, Alighiero Boetti, Lucio Fontana, Heinz Mack, Piero Manzoni, Mario Merz, Otto Piene, Julian Schnabel, Richard Tuttle, and ZERO Group.

In September 2010, Sperone Westwater inaugurated a new Foster + Partner designed building at 257 Bowery in New York. Today, almost 35 years after its conception, the gallery continues to exhibit an international roster of prominent artists working in a wide variety of media.

Slag Gallery - New York - USA

.
Slag Gallery, since its opening in summer 2008, has focused on presenting contemporary works by Eastern European artists who have minimal exposure in the United States. In 2009 the gallery has begun featuring works by international artists in all media. Slag's founder is the Romanian born, Irina Protopopescu who has long been a supporter of artists. Slag Gallery shows works in all media and functions as a laboratory where artists can experiment within the walls of a gallery space. By calling the gallery Slag (Slag is a waste product in metal smelting, yet highly recyclable), Protopopescu is emphasizing that what might be worthless in one context has meaning in another and operates on that model...where one thing can evolve into another. The gallery pushes boundaries by presenting artists whose work explores geo-political, as well as social environments and issues.
