History[]

John Gibson was the first director of Park Place Gallery in 1963, and later opened his own gallery in 1967. By 1966, SoHo had a growing artist community, and had revolutionized what was possible for young artists. The original gallery members[1] were all of the cutting edge. Attracting funding from the Lannan Foundation and private collectors, and with John Gibson and later Paula Cooper as directors, Park Place became a center of attention for the downtown art scene.
