Galerie Gmurzynska will relocate its New York operations to the Fuller Building, at 595 Madison Avenue, later this month. The gallery moved into its previous space, at 43 East 78th Street, in 2018; its last show their, per its website, closed at the end of May.
Its forthcoming move brings the gallery into the storied Art Deco–style building with an equally important art historical connection. The Fuller was once a hub for New York’s galleries, with previous tenants including Pierre Matisse Gallery, Charles Egan Gallery, André Emmerich, Marlborough-Gerson Gallery, Hammer Galleries, Tibor de Nagy, and Robert Miller, among others. (The building was built between 1928 and 1929 by the Fuller Construction Company, which had built the Flatiron Building nearly 30 years prior as its first headquarters.)

Galerie Gmurzynska, which was founded in Cologne, Germany, in 1965, is known for a program focused on 20th-century modernism, having staged exhibitions for the likes of Pablo Picasso Kurt Schwitters, Fernand Léger, Lyonel Feininger, and Robert and Sonia Delaunay.
Though Galerie Gmurzynska has not officially announced the news of its move to the Fuller Building, it posted on its website that the gallery will be relocating to the space. After ARTnews went to press, a representative for the gallery said that it would inaugurate the space on September 16, with an exhibition of works by Joan Miró and Roberto Matta.
Though the Fuller Building is no longer the famed gallery hub it once was, it is also the current home to Luxembourg + Co., which shows a range of modern and contemporary art. Galerie Gmurzynska’s move there could point to other galleries stepping up shop there.
