In Galerie Sardine, a New Idea of What the Art Gallery Can Be

Artist Joe Bradley and his wife Valentina Akerman, neither of whom had run an art gallery before, opened Galerie Sardine in a 1701 farmhouse on Main Street in Amagansett, Long Island. The gallery, named after a small fish to convey modesty and portability, attracted crowds of local and visiting art lovers, including prominent dealer Larry Gagosian. The article profiles the couple's backgrounds—Akerman, an architect and former art director from Colombia, and Bradley, a painter who rose to prominence with a solo show at MoMA PS1 in 2006 and now shows with David Zwirner.
