INSIDE NEW YORK 2009

Black & White Gallery was founded in New York in 2002. From the start, the Gallery has been committed to cultivating promising artists in the initial and more advanced phases of their careers exploring contemporary themes and concepts through multiple mediums.The Gallery's original location was a unique industrial indoor/outdoor ground floor space in Williamsburg, Brooklyn - the breeding ground of emerging talent at that time. From 2006 to 2010 Black & White Gallery operated from two locations - Williamsburg and Chelsea. In 2010 the Chelsea location was closed and not-for-profit Black & White Project Space was established. From 2010 to 2012 both the Gallery and Project Space operated side by side presenting simultaneous exhibition programs out of the Gallery's original indoor/outdoor location in Williamsburg. 

From 2015 to 2018  Black & White Gallery / Project Space operated from its new brick-and-mortar space in Bushwick, Brooklyn - the new creative hub of New York City.

In the summer of 2021 the Gallery opened its new location in Southampton, NY. It occupies the converted art studio space combining the bi-level barn and sculpture garden.

Going forward, the Gallery will continue to experiment with different exhibition modules both in digital and physical spaces. We will devote our resources to development, production and promotion of cutting-edge creative ideas and expansion into online content.

BLACK & WHITE ART FUND

The Fund was established in the summer of 2013. The purpose of the Fund is two-fold: to support living, practicing artists by acquiring their work through the Fund’s Acquisition Program, and to encourage museums and other public collecting institutions across the globe to accept the acquired works as gifts through the Fund’s Museum Gift Program. Acquisition funding will be achieved through grants, direct donations and Charitable Sales campaigns conducted by Black & White Gallery/Project Space at art fairs and its new location to be announced soon.

It is NOT an investment fund. The purpose of the Fund is two-fold: to support living, practicing artists by acquiring their work through the Fund’s Acquisition Program, and to encourage museums and other public collecting institutions across the globe to accept the acquired works as gifts through the Fund’s Museum Gift Program.
