David Peter Francis

About the Gallery
David Peter Francis is a contemporary art gallery founded in 2024 in New York City. The intergenerational program focuses on artists that defy simple categorization, with conceptually and poetically rigorous practices that exist across media and disciplines. Exhibitions at the gallery have been featured in The New York Times, Artforum, Frieze, The Art Newspaper, ArtReview, Interview Magazine, T Magazine, Aperture, and Artnet News. 

About the Presentation
David Peter Francis will debut at Independent with a solo presentation featuring work by Carrie Schneider. Schneider’s practice emerges from a 25-year investigation of chromogenic photo paper, and considers the feminine face as a contested site. Rooted deeply in feminist image practices, Schneider works across photography, film, and installation to challenge our inherent assumptions of image—the beauty, the form, and the terror that they can hold.
