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]

History

The gallery was founded in 1991 and operated privately in SoHo, New York, until 1995. The original list of artists represented included Marina Abramović, Joseph Kosuth, James Casebere, Robert Mapplethorpe[3][4] 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, Sean Kelly Gallery moved to 29th Street in the Chelsea gallery district. In 2012, it moved to a 22,000 sq ft (2,000 m2) space in the new Hudson Yards neighborhood.[5] The two story gallery was designed by architect Toshiko Mori.[6]

In 2018, the gallery opened a project space in Taipei.[7]

In 2021, Sean Kelly Gallery announced plans to open a 10,000 sq ft (930 m2) space in the Hollywood neighborhood of Los Angeles, again designed by Mori.[8]
