Plane Space
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Plane Space is a contemporary art gallery located in the Greenwich Village district of Manhattan. The gallery features mixed media work by emerging to mid-career artists in the U.S. and abroad.
Plane Space opened on August 28, 2002 in an 1855 firehouse. It's mission is to show the most engaging contemporary art being created today. The interior of the gallery was designed by the New York-based firm Deborah Berke & Partners Architects LLP. Its 1,300 square foot ground floor space has housed 35 exhibitions to date.
The gallery's programming consists of eight exhibitions annually of emerging to mid-career American and international artists working in sculpture, installation, drawing, painting, photography, and video.
Plane Space features a summer artist residency program. A selected artist living outside of New York City is invited to live in the quarters above the gallery and work in the exhibition space during Plane Space's dormant month of August. As a result, each season, begins with a site-specific installation.
