Since 1997, Pavel Zoubok Gallery has specialized in collage, assemblage and mixed-media Installation. From the outset, the gallery’s program has presented modern and contemporary works in an effort to create a cohesive art historical context for collage and its related forms, spanning most of the major art movements of the postwar period. While the primary market has always been a driving force of our program, represented by a diverse group of gallery artists, we maintain an inventory of works by important proponents of the medium, including Hannelore Baron, Joe Brainard, Joseph Cornell, Al Hansen, Ray Johnson, Jiri Kolar, Mimmo Rotella, Anne Ryan, Jacques Villeglé and David Wojnarowicz. Since the gallery’s 2004 relocation to a ground floor space in the heart of Chelsea, we make a regular practice of publishing exhibition catalogues collaborating with numerous scholars and critics including Alexander Andersen-Spivy, Dan Cameron, Edward Gomez, Robert Hobbs, Charlotta Kotik, Carlo McCormick, Robert Rosenblum and Dickran Tashjian. Our audience continues to broaden and we continue to develop relationships with institutions. Museum associations have included Wadsworth Atheneum of Art, Brooklyn Museum, Katonah Museum of Art, New Britain Museum of American Art, Newark Museum, Norton Museum of Art, and others. In addition to our stated focus, we have also maintained a tangential but related interest in Surrealism, establishing an inventory of works by artists such as Max Ernst, Yves Tanguy, Roberto Matta, George Hugnet, Kay Sage and Stella Snead. In 2009, Pavel Zoubok Gallery was made a member of the ADAA (Art Dealer's Association of America).

Hollis Taggart Galleries was founded in 1979 with a gallery mission of presenting museum-quality works of art, maintaining an inventory and exhibition program motivated by scholarship, and offering personalized support in all aspects of art collecting. Over the past 36 years, the gallery has offered significant works in the American vernacular, from the Hudson River School to Impressionist, Modernist, Abstract Expressionist, and Contemporary Art. The gallery has organized groundbreaking exhibitions curated by our own directors in conjunction with the foremost scholars in the field. Hollis Taggart Galleries has organized countless critically acclaimed shows and has proudly collaborated with over thirty museums and institutions to produce scholarly catalogues that reflect our commitment to advancing research and scholarship in the field of American Art. Hollis Taggart Galleries has sponsored three catalogue raisonné projects. The first was the two-volume catalogue raisonné of Pennsylvania Impressionist Daniel Garber, which was published in 2006 and includes over 1,500 entries. In 2000 the gallery launched the Frederick Carl Frieseke catalogue raisonné that is currently being compiled by the artist’s grandson. Most recently, we have undertaken the compilation of the catalogue raisonné of Surrealist artist Kay Sage, in partnership with Mark Kelman and Sage scholar Stephen Robeson Miller. In the summer of 2015, Hollis Taggart Galleries opened a spacious 4,000-square-foot gallery in Manhattan’s Chelsea gallery district. The gallery also retains an elegant, by-appointment-only gallery space on the Upper East Side. Our two venues afford our clients the ease of meeting and viewing gallery inventory where most convenient. Our current gallery program emphasizes Post-War American art, yet we continue to promote the American Modernists who we have highlighted over the years. The gallery will also represent a select group of contemporary artists whose aesthetic we feel is consistent with our historical vision. Above all, we are committed to the advancement of art-historical scholarship and to continuing the lively discourse between contemporary and historical art. Hollis Taggart Galleries welcomes all inquiries from collectors who may wish to sell or consign works of art or estates. The gallery can provide appraisal services as well.

The enduring legacy of a fine arts education is not just an appreciation of great accomplishments and styles, but to create a structure to give visual form to what is seen, known and felt, and thus provide a basis from which to develop. The Chelsea Classical Studio Core Program is an integrated curriculum of Drawing, Painting and Sculpture taught by figurative painters and sculptors from different educations and backgrounds, who strongly believe that artists need more than one perspective in order to flourish. The special significance of an education based on the figure, in addition to its history as a profound subject of expression, is its crucial role in developing the artist’s judgment and ability to apply concepts. The infinite movements of the figure force the student to cope with change and rely heavily on critical thinking and composition to help solve artistic problems. The lessons learned serve as the foundation for visual intelligence, and can apply to drawing, painting and sculpture, as well as other related fields such as architecture, illustration, animation and graphic design. The principles that will be taught and discussed are numerous, including: design, composition, rhythm, line, value, mass, edges, volume, planes, form, light, key, visual perception, impression, focus, temperature, color, anatomy, structure, geometry, symmetry, proportion, perspective, techniques, methods and materials. Though each of these subjects has its own specific nature, it is how they all relate to each other and are used to overcome artistic problems that make them vital. The Chelsea Classical Studio strongly believes that critical thinking and diverse points of view are very important factors in an artist’s education and development. Featuring experienced artists working alongside students and providing instruction, critiques, demonstrations and a constant exchange of ideas, it seeks to bring together visual artists of various mediums, skill levels, backgrounds and ages. Applicants will be carefully considered and chosen based on art experience, education, and a demonstrated passion and willingness to learn. The Core Program is a 5 day a week, weekday morning program. Students may attend on a part time basis.
