ABSTRACT :
Throughout the past two decades, Tanya Bonakdar Gallery has developed a leading contemporary program that now represents more than thirty distinguished artists. Committed to presenting work across all media, the gallery has maintained a rigorous exhibition schedule that features more than ten rotating exhibitions by its artists each year. Founded in 1994, Tanya Bonakdar Gallery opened at 130 Prince Street in New York City's Soho neighborhood, where it remained until relocating to 521 West 21st Street in Chelsea in 1998. Following a major renovation in the spring of 2006, the gallery doubled in size by acquiring 5,000 square feet along the ground-floor of its existing location. In 2018, Tanya Bonakdar Gallery opened a second gallery location at 1010 N. Highland Avenue in Los Angeles, California, expanding its exhibition capabilities as well as its programming.
