This event has ended.
Bowery Gallery Founding Members 1969 is a retrospective group exhibition that celebrates both the creation of one of the earliest co-operative galleries on the Lower East Side of New York City in 1969 and the spirit of an emerging figurative art movement that existed at that time and place.
A group of young artists who shared an interest in figurative art and a passion for keeping representational painting alive started the Bowery Gallery on October 31st, 1969. It was a gallery of artists for artists. This exhibition will feature artwork from 19 of the 23 founding members. Their work includes paintings, sculpture, watercolors and drawings from the late 1960s to the present day in order to demonstrate the formative influence those early years had on these artists’ development.
