History

Carol Greene and Gloria Naftali founded Greene Naftali in 1995, making it one of the first galleries to open in Chelsea.[2] The gallery shows contemporary art in various media—including painting, video, music, and fashion—and has a reputation for championing emerging artists as well as historical figures,[3] including Rachel Harrison, Dan Graham, Jacqueline Humphries, Peter Halley, Paul Chan, Helen Marten, Michael Krebber, and Tony Conrad. Greene Naftali is also renowned for its ambitious performance programming with music events by Thurston Moore, the NNCK Blues Band, Dan Graham, Loren Connors, and Electrophilia with Jutta Koether & Steven Parrino. The gallery has been featured in several "top galleries" lists, in publications such as Flash Art, Modern Painters (magazine), and artnet.[4][5][6]

Locations

The gallery occupies two spaces in the West Chelsea Building at 508 W. 26th Street: an 8th-floor space, which opened in 1995 with a group exhibition including Laura Owens, and a ground floor space, which opened in 2014 with a solo exhibition by Dan Graham.[7][8]
