michael werner second new york gallery sanya kantarovsky
Michael Werner Gallery is expanding rather than contracting, opening a second New York space on the Upper East Side at 1018 Madison Avenue, just around the corner from its original location at 4 East 77th Street. The new venue was secured after the building housing the original gallery went up for sale, prompting partner Gordon VeneKlasen to search for alternatives. The inaugural exhibition features Sanya Kantarovsky, who is also joining the gallery's roster, with a two-part show titled "Scarecrow" opening May 7. The expansion was designed by architect Annabelle Selldorf, who previously worked with the gallery in 1989.
