First: Amanda Browder and guest host Tom Sanford talk to New
York Gallerist Leo Koenig.
From the Leo Koenig Site:Leo Koenig opened his gallery in 1999 in Williamsburg, Brooklyn.
There, he presented both promising young talent and established, historically
significant artists. Within a year, the gallery moved to Manhattan, first to a space in Tribeca, then
to Centre street
in soho, where we were for 4 years. In August 2005, we opened our new ground
floor space at 545 West 23rd
Street in the heart of Chelsea.
For six years now, Leo Koenig Inc. has been
presenting a surprising mix of fresh exhibitions, anchored by a well-learned
tradition of publication. Ever vigilant that the artist's work be seen in an
appropriate context, the gallery has been dedicated to producing catalogues
with penetrating essays, and limited-edition artist books.
With a focus on painting and sculpture, Leo
Koenig Inc.'s current roster includes some of the most internationally renowned
emerging and mid-career contemporary artists. We are pleased to represent the
following artists:
Next: Brian Andrews, Marc LeBlanc and Patricia Maloney
