The Bruce Lurie Gallery was established in the early 1980s in New York’s East Village. Lurie has a history of launching emerging artists into the main-stream art scene, including assisting Leo Castelli in showing Jean-Michel Basquiat’s early works. “We were actually the first gallery in Chelsea from 1989 through 2001.
After 9/11, Lurie made a decision to move out of New York. He was in Miami from 2004 to 2008, before relocating to the West Coast.
