About the Gallery
303 Gallery was first established by owner and director Lisa Spellman in 1984 at 303 Park Avenue South. In addition to its original address, the gallery’s name also references Alfred Stieglitz's "Intimate Gallery" artists-collaborative, which was located in Room 303 of the Anderson Galleries building. In 1986, the gallery moved to the East Village, where Spellman invited artists such as Christopher Wool and Robert Gober to organize artist projects and collaborations. The gallery subsequently relocated to Soho in 1989, moving into a space at 89 Greene Street. During its years in Soho, the gallery began working with artists such as Rodney Graham and Hans-Peter Feldmann and gave early exhibitions to Rirkrit Tiravanija, Karen Kilimnik, Doug Aitken, and Collier Schorr. In 1996, 303 Gallery was among the first galleries to move to Chelsea, opening at 525 West 22nd Street. The gallery opened its current location on 21st Street, in 2016 in a building designed by Norman Foster + Partners.
Hans-Peter Feldmann, a pioneer of artistic appropriation, is one of the least-known great living artists in the world.
Back in 1996, the astute dealer Lisa Spellman was among the first dealers to relocate from SoHo to Chelsea; now, 303 Gallery makes its home on the ground floor of one of the many brassy towers that have arisen in Highlineville.
The dust hasn't settled yet (and hard hats are still the fashionable back-of-house accessory), but come this Saturday, May 7, Spellman is swinging open her glass doors with the gallery's first solo exhibition, of work by the Berlin-based Alicja Kwade, whose reality-distorting sculptures toy equally with physical space and human emotion.
I love the tiny landscape paintings of Maureen Gallace, currently on view at the 303 Gallery, so intensely that it worries me.
This year, one of the greatest New York gallerists of our time and continuous force for artistic good Lisa Spellman celebrates her 30th anniversary.
