nyc apartment galleries

Across New York City, a growing number of artists and curators are turning their apartments into informal exhibition spaces, including Iowa in Crown Heights, Interrobang in Sunset Park, Drama in Bushwick, and Club Rhubarb near the Bowery. These home galleries, born from necessity and a rejection of the traditional art market, host shows in living rooms, kitchens, and stairwells, prioritizing intimacy and creative freedom over commercial viability. Antonia Oliver, founder of Iowa, describes her space as an "apartment gallery" that allows her to program without market pressures, exemplified by a recent performance piece by Anna Thérèse Witenberg.
