Cheim & Read Gallery
Cheim & Read was founded in 1996 by co-owners John Cheim and Howard Read. The gallery focuses primarily on the representation of an international group of leading contemporary artists, whose diverse practices include painting, drawing, sculpture, photography and video. Each artist represented by Cheim & Read has exhibited extensively in museums and galleries throughout the world.

The gallery’s program is best characterized by its adherence to a rigorous curatorial model and its strength in presenting critical monographic exhibitions for the work of its artists. Cheim & Read is also known for organizing historically significant group exhibitions including: “Le Tableau: French Abstraction and Its Affinities” and “The New Landscape/The New Still Life” an in-depth examination of Chaim Soutine’s influence on modern art.

Since its founding, Cheim & Read has also specialized in the resale of select works of art from the 20th century by artists such as Jean-Michel Basquiat, Cy Twombly and Andy Warhol. Members of the Art Dealers Association of America (ADAA), the gallery subscribes to the highest standard of connoisseurship, scholarship and ethical practice, and offers an effective and confidential alternative for the transfer of important works of art from and on behalf of private individuals and institutions.
