Sean Kelly Gallery
Sean Kelly Gallery, founded in 1991 in New York City by British-born Sean Kelly, represents established and mid-career artists, particularly with work based in installation and performance.[1]
Owner Sean Kelly began in the British museum world by curating shows by sculptors such as Richard Deacon and Anthony Gormley early in their career. He opened a place in SoHo, Manhattan, in 1995, with artists such as Marina Abramović, Joseph Kosuth, James Casebere and Robert Mapplethorpe.[2]
History
The gallery was founded in 1991 and operated privately in SoHo, New York, until 1995. The original list of artists represented included Marina Abramovic, Joseph Kosuth, James Casebere, Robert Mapplethorpe[3] and Julião Sarmento, who are still represented by the gallery. In 1995, the gallery relocated to a street-level space in SoHo.[3]
In 2001, the Gallery moved to 29th Street in the Chelsea gallery district.
In 2012, Sean Kelly moved to a 22,000 square foot space in the new Hudson Yards neighborhood.[4] The two story gallery is designed by architect Toshiko Mori.[5]
