Nancy Shaver's Henry Store in Hudson to Close After 25 Years

After 25 years of operation, Nancy Shaver's store, Henry, located in Hudson, New York, will shut its doors in mid-July due to the landlord's need for the space. Shaver has referred to Henry as "my right arm, my left leg, my eye," highlighting its significance as both a retail outlet and an extension of her artistic work, merging art with commerce. Looking ahead, she intends to transform Henry into pop-up events, commencing at Pidgin in Oak Hill, New York, in October, followed by Parker Gallery in Los Angeles in November. Friends and fellow artists, such as Robert Gober, Ann Lauterbach, and Mónica de la Torre, have shared their thoughts on the store's distinctive environment and its impact on their artistic journeys.
