The Luhring Augustine Gallery is an art gallery in New York City. The gallery has three locations: Chelsea, Bushwick, and Tribeca. Its principal focus is the representation of an international group of contemporary artists whose diverse practices include painting, drawing, sculpture, video and photography.
History[]
Luhring Augustine Gallery was founded in 1985 by co-owners Lawrence R. Luhring and Roland J. Augustine.[1][2] From 1989 until 1992, the gallery also partnered with Galerie Max Hetzler on establishing Luhring Augustine Hetzler in Los Angeles.[3] The 4,500 square feet (420 square metres) space was located in a refurbished building at 1330 4th Street in Santa Monica.[4]
In 2012, Luhring Augustine opened a space in Bushwick, Brooklyn.[5] In 2020, it opened a new 3,500 square feet (330 square metres) space in Tribeca.[6]
The gallery is a member of the (ADAA).[7] Roland Augustine served as president of the ADAA from 2006 to 2009.[8]
Artists[]
Each artist of the gallery has exhibited widely in museum and gallery contexts and has been regularly included in international exhibitions such as the Venice Bienniale, The Carnegie International and Documenta. The exhibition program is best characterized by its adherence to a rigorous curatorial model that has incorporated critical monographic exhibitions such as Marcel Duchamp (1987), Gerhard Richter (1995) and Donald Judd (1999), which have served as historical antecedents for the contemporary program of the gallery.
