Salon is an expansive synthesis of New York Life Gallery's collection, combining new works with highlights from previous shows to illustrate the cohesive curatorial vision that connects each vastly different artist in the installation. Salon draws upon historical and social etymology. The gallery will function as a literal salon - a social gathering spot with a program of events intended to stimulate cultural conversation and offer creatives a meeting place to exchange ideas.
Works will be hung salon style across the walls of the gallery by artists including David Armstrong, Daniel Arnold, Alexander Brook, Drake Carr, Hugh Cecil, Daniel Celentano, Steven Cuffie, Arthur B. Davies, George Valentine Dureau, Charles Warren Eaton, Maurice Grosser, George Platt Lynes, Pierre Amédée Marcel-Beronneau, Sam Penn, Bradford Perin, Elsa Schmid, Moses Soyer, Raphael Soyer, and Tony Viramontes.
