WideOpen

Hurricane  Sandy  may  have set us back a couple of months, but Wide Open 4 will be opening  May 11 - bigger and better than ever in our newly  rebuilt  gallery.  The show will be running for twice as long, with double the opportunity for attendance and sales.

Ours  is  a  truly unique gallery - a massive Civil War-era warehouse on  the  Red  Hook waterfront in Brooklyn, NY. Its enormous space affords  us  the  opportunity to exhibit really huge work, and we welcome it. We will be using 8,000 square feet for this show, and  look  forward to exhibiting artists' work from all around the country, work  in all sizes, subjects, and media, except film (it's  almost  completely wide open).

The vista of New York Harbor, spanning the Statue of Liberty to the Verrazano Bridge is one of the best in the city. Our 18,000 annual visitors also  enjoy  the  nearby restaurants and bars. With every medium and style  of  artwork  represented, our shows are as spectacular as the setting.

She has worked on many exhibitions at the Museum, most recently "Sherrie Levine: MAYHEM." 

The  Brooklyn  Waterfront  Artists Coalition, organized in 1978, has grown to  become  Brooklyn's  largest artist-run organization with over 400 members.  Our  three  annual mega-exhibits and outdoor  sculpture show present a wide variety of contemporary visual arts from the traditional to the experimental cutting edge.
