Muriel Guépin Gallery
Gallery in The Lower East Side area
The Muriel Guépin Gallery aims to make art more accessible, while allowing artists to increase their visibility and reach within their own community. The gallery exhibits works of exceptional quality by both emerging and more established artists, with a strong focus on artists who are Brooklyn based. It was founded in December 2008 as Shop Art, and in January 2010, it reopened into a new, larger space, and was renamed the Muriel Guépin Gallery.
With the reopening into the bigger, new space, the gallery aims to exhibit larger pieces of art, as well as installations and sculptures. Also, the bigger space now allows for an ambitious new art program for both children and adults.
Muriel Guépin, the owner of the gallery, has been collecting art for the past 18 years. She has an extensive collection of Brooklyn based and international artists, some of which are now part of museum permanent collections or have moved to well established galleries. Previously working in finance for the past 20 years, she decided to share her appreciation for the arts and help people in her community discover some of the artists she has been collecting over the years.
