The Sidney Janis Gallery was established in1948 and over the ensuing decades became a beacon for some of New York City's most avant-garde artists. Art collector, dealer and businessman Sidney Janis, along with his wife Harriet, swiftly established the gallery's reputation by curating exhibitions of Fernand Léger, Piet Mondrian, Jean Arp, Tom Wesselmann, Willem deKooning, Jackson Pollock, Mark Rothko and Josef Albers.
In 1952, Sidney Janis gave Jackson Pollock the first of three solo shows, further establishing the cultural dominance of Abstract Expressionism. Ten years later, the gallery put on its most famous exhibition, The New Realists. Throughout the gallery's existence, it ably and consistently measured the pulse of the New York Art world by showcasing some of the finest and riskiest avant-garde art of the 20th century.
