Hallwalls in an alternative space art gallery

Description of Hallwalls

The HALLWALLS art gallery entrance appears in black and white above text detailing its history and mission.

Top portion displays the exterior entrance to HALLWALLS gallery under an awning with a HALLWALLS sign; the lower portion contains printed text describing the organization. The text identifies HALLWALLS as an alternative space art gallery and summarizes its origins in the early 1970s when artists organized to exhibit outside established institutions. It states that during the fall of 1974 Robert Longo, Jack Griffis and Charles Clough began exhibiting in a hallway adjoining their studios at the Essex Arts Center, 30 Essex Street, and that other artists expanded HALLWALLS programming. Listed programming includes art exhibitions, visiting artists, lectures, writing, film, video, performance, music and guided tours, and funding sources named include the New York State Council on the Arts, the National Endowment for the Arts, CETA Special Projects, memberships and local contributions.
