Some of the most renowned and respected artists of the 20 century would have remained unknown to American audiences if not for the few trailblazing women gallerists who recognized the true value of their art in the 1950s and 1960s.
The upcoming exhibition at the David Nolan Gallery will honor four pioneering women art dealers, Jill Kornblee, Martha Jackson, Eleanore Saidenberg, and Eleanor Ward, with an exhibition, MAD WOMEN. Their exceptional careers and respective exhibition programs of the Kornblee Gallery, Martha Jackson Gallery, Saidenberg Gallery, and Stable Gallery will be closely examined with the highlight on a connective tissue that tied these remarkable women together in the 1960s New York.
