tilton gallery closure 1234753483
Tilton Gallery in New York has announced that its upcoming exhibition, featuring late abstract painter Ruth Vollmer, will be its last. The show runs from September 30 to November 15, after which the gallery will vacate its Upper East Side space. The decision was made by Connie Rogers Tilton, Jack Tilton's widow, who has run the gallery since his death in 2017. She stated it is time to pursue her own projects in a more private setting. The gallery was founded in 1983 by Jack Tilton, who previously worked for Betty Parsons, and was known for launching careers of artists like Marlene Dumas, Nicole Eisenman, and Glenn Ligon, as well as promoting Chinese artists in the 1990s.
