Sherry French Gallery

Gallery in The Chelsea 26th area

In 1983, Sherry French Gallery opened its doors in what was then the center of the art world, New York's midtown Manhattan, in order to focus exclusively on American contemporary representational painting and sculpture (a.k.a. Realist Art). Owner Sherry French says, "My premise was and still is: the American public has always loved what it knows to be real, can sense, feel and identify. I can best describe the gallery's focus as realism where the emotional or psychological element is heightened, whether it be via landscape, still life and figure painting or sculpture. This, to me, is what makes great art-- art that lasts over time. And having been an artist myself, I appreciate the time-honored skills of draftsmanship in drawing and craftsmanship in painting." A link to the past is the gallery's underlying theme. In addition to holding ten one-person and group shows every year, Sherry French has originated seventeen group theme shows that have traveled to over sixty museums around the country. With the millennial shift of the art world's center, Sherry French Gallery moved from Fifth Avenue and 57th Street to trendy Chelsea.
