December 4 - December 29, 2019

The most valuable work of art in a grand collection, may very well be the smallest piece. Begin your grand collection by joining us for our 15th Annual Small Works Show. This show will also kick off 440 Gallery’s year long celebration of our Quinceañera in 2020. In its 15th year, this small works show is our longest running annual showcase. It has helped us to survive and grow as a gallery in a difficult market and we invite you to celebrate with us! The show’s selection of a broad range of styles and media will be exhibited from Wednesday, December 4 through Sunday December 29, 2019.

Our juror this year is John Gagné, the founder of Gagné Contemporary, a gallery focused on emerging and mid-career New York artists. He is an art advisor to galleries and collectors, and often leads clients to artists’ studios and gallery districts all over the city. As an independent curator John has selected and exhibited artists in Manhattan and Brooklyn. He also consults with a number of non-profits, notably Arts Gowanus and Arts in Bushwick, helping organizations launch and stage arts events.
