HISTORY
Originally established in 1999, Leo Koenig Inc. presented emerging, mid-career and established artists for more than a decade. Quickly recognized for the strength of its sculpture and painting program as well as its support of German and American artists, the gallery opened an adjacent project space on West 23rd Street in 2008.
Leo Koenig Projekte extended the gallery’s curatorial platform to include international artists working in a range of media, including film, video, photography, and performance.
With a desire to fully integrate both endeavors Leo Koenig partnered with Margaret Liu Clinton and re-opened the gallery Koenig & Clinton on West 19th Street in September of 2013. Koenig & Clinton remains focused on actively building a cross-generational gallery program that reflects the rich diversity of cultural and aesthetic approaches that are historically characteristic of New York City.
In addition to producing exhibitions, publishing catalogues, and participating in art fairs internationally, Koenig & Clinton also hosts events in support of critics, poets, educators, independent publishers, and non-profit institutions in the arts community.
