Alissa Friedman has returned to Salon 94, the New York gallery where she spent 15 years shaping its identity, after a stint at Stephen Friedman Gallery's US outpost, which is closing. In an interview with ARTnews, she discusses the gallery's early days in the mid-2000s, its unconventional program that embraced Indigenous artists, ceramics, and design before such categories were widely accepted, and how the art world has since aligned with that vision. She also explains her departure in 2021 when founder Jeanne Greenberg Rohatyn joined LGDR, as Friedman preferred working directly with living artists.
