exhibition to benefit the Student Mobilization Committee to End the War in Vietnam. The show included works by Carl Andre, Dan Flavin, Donald Judd, Robert Mangold and Robert Ryman, among others, as well as Sol LeWitt’s first wall drawing. For over fifty years, the gallery’s artistic agenda has remained focused on, though not limited to, conceptual and minimal art. In 1996, the gallery moved to Chelsea to occupy an award-winning redesigned 19th century building. The architect was Richard Gluckman. In 1999, Paula Cooper opened a second exhibition space at 521 West 21st Street. </p> <p>Beyond its immediate artistic program, the gallery has regularly hosted concerts, music symposia, dance performances, book receptions, poetry readings, as well as art exhibitions and special events to benefit various national and community organizations. For 25 years until 2000, the gallery presented a much celebrated series of New Year’s Eve readings of Gertrude Stein’s <em>The Making of Americans</em> and James Joyce’s <em>Finnegans Wake</em>.</p> </div> </div></div></div> </section> <section id="wrapper-contact"> <div id='screen-contact'> <div class="container "><header class="section-header divider "><h1>Contact</h1></header></div> <div class='container'> <div class='text-three-columns'> <div class='content paragraph-styling'> <div class="column"> <p><strong>Locations and Hours:</strong><br /> <a href="https://goo.gl/maps/c8kSYmQgPg5rTzML9">534 West 21st St, New York, NY, 10011</a><br /> <a href="https://goo.gl/maps/CrSsCQXZns8uppMR6" target="_blank">521 West 21st St, New York,NY, 10011</a><br /> <a href="https://goo.gl/maps/GxwReW3jc82DHYdA8" target="_blank">529 West 21st St, New York,NY, 10011</a><br /> <span style="letter-spacing: 0.24px;">Telephone: (212) 255-1105</span></p> <p>Hours<br /> Tuesday - Saturday, 10am – 6pm</p> <p><br /> <strong>The gallery is not able to review unsolicited artist submissions.</strong></p> </div> <div class="column"> <p><strong>Correspondence:</strong><br /> 534 West 21st Street, New York, 10011</p> <p><strong>General Inquiries:</strong><br /> <a href="mailto:鈥媔nfo@paulacoopergallery.com">info@paulacoopergallery.com</a></p> <p><strong>Press Inquiries:</strong><br /> <a href="mailto:press@paulacoopergallery.com">press@paulacoopergallery.com</a><br /> <br /> <strong>Image Requests:</strong><br /> <a href="mailto:eve.arballo@paulacoopergallery.com">images@paulacoopergallery.com</a></p> </div> <div class="column"> <p><strong>Mailing List:</strong><br /> <a href="http://eepurl.com/bllJtn">Subscribe to our newsletter</a></p> <script src="//s3.amazonaws.com/downloads.mailchimp.com/js/mc-validate.js" type="text/javascript"></script><script type="text/javascript">(function($) {window.fnames = new Array(); window.ftypes = new Array();fnames[0]='EMAIL';ftypes[0]='email';fnames[1]='FNAME';ftypes[1]='text';fnames[2]='LNAME';ftypes[2]='text';fnames[3]='MMERGE3';ftypes[3]='text';fnames[4]='MMERGE4';ftypes[4]='text';fnames[5]='MMERGE5';ftypes[5]='text';fnames[6]='MMERGE6';ftypes[6]='text';}(jQuery));var $mcj = jQuery.noConflict(true);</script> <p><strong>Follow Us:</strong><br /> <a href="http://instagram.com/paulacoopergallery" target="_blank">Instagram</a> / <a href="http://www.facebook.com/pages/Paula-Cooper-Gallery/267802929992076" target="_blank">Facebook</a> / <a href="https://twitter.com/PaulaCooperNY" target="_blank">Twitter</a></p> <link href="//cdn-images.mailchimp.com/embedcode/classic-061523.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css" /> <style type="text/css">#mc_embed_signup{background:#fff; false;clear:left; font:14px Helvetica,Arial,sans-serif; width: 400px;} /* Add your own Mailchimp form style overrides in your site stylesheet or in this style block.
