Gavin Brown to Launch Rome Gallery in Historic 8th Century Church Space
Gallerist Gavin Brown will open a new gallery in Rome on 6 April, adding to his existing portfolio of spaces. The decision was driven by the unique venue—an 8th century church restored in the 17th century, featuring 30-foot ceilings. Brown currently operates multiple locations: a main gallery on New York’s West Side, an East Side project space, the artist-run 356 Mission in LA, and an occasional public space in his Harlem townhouse. He also plans to relocate his primary New York gallery within months. The inaugural exhibition for the Rome venue remains unconfirmed.
