The Painting Center
The Painting Center is a non-profit organization in New York City with strong roots in the art community and a reputation for integrity in its programming. Our mission is to provide exhibition opportunities for emerging, mid-career, and established artists. Curators use our space to present contemporary thesis exhibitions on visual arts, artists, and art-making practices. The Painting Center has continually built upon its purpose of offering an alternative space dedicated to the exhibition of painting and various media, regardless of market appeal. The Painting Center is a gathering place for artists and those who love art; it is a democratic arena that fosters dialogue, experimentation, and community among artists. It does not champion one school or tradition but welcomes and encourages diverse viewpoints.
