Kohn Gallery

Since its establishment in 1985 by former Flash Art editor Michael Kohn, Michael Kohn Gallery has presented historically significant exhibitions in Los Angeles alongside exciting contemporary exhibitions, creating meaningful contexts to establish links to the greater art historical continuum. Significant exhibitions include Andy Warhol’s Campbell’s Soup Boxes in December 1986, which opened just weeks before the artist’s untimely death; She: Works by Richard Prince and Wallace Berman which brought together—for the first time—two generations of leading artists from different coasts; Bruce Conner: Work from the 1970s, which inspired the artist’s first solo retrospective in Europe at the Kunsthalle Wien and Kunsthalle Zurich (2010). Exhibitions of important New York-based artists have included new works by Christopher Wool, Richard Tuttle, Mark Tansey, Kenny Scharf, and Keith Haring. Michael Kohn Gallery represents important West Coast artists with long careers and rich histories such as Joe Goode, Lita Albuquerque and Sharon Ellis as well as the Estates of Martha Alf, John Altoon, Bruce Conner and Wallace Berman. Finally, Michael Kohn Gallery boasts an exciting roster of emerging and mid-career artists including Kate Barbee, Jinhin Chen, Mark Innerst, Heidi Hahn, Nir Hod, Caroline Kent, Rosa Loy, Gonzalo Lebrija, Sophia Narrett, Mark Ryden, Ilana Savdie, Chiffon Thomas and Troika.
