Some news that feels pretty unreal to say out loud: Isabel Sullivan Gallery, along with multiple works from our exhibitions, was featured in Interior Design Magazine’s ✨The Ones to Watch✨ issue, celebrating bold ideas and the creatives shaping what comes next!!

For nearly 90 years, Interior Design Magazine has been one of the places professionals turn to for inspiration, so seeing Liu Shuishi’s exhibition “Existential, Being” featured alongside Sophie Collé’s clock “Just for Fun” from our ONNI exhibition felt pretty surreal. Especially surrounded by such outstanding global projects and ideas.

I want to tell you: this mentioning made our whole team feel so seen.

Because we spend a lot of time thinking about what kind of gallery we want to be — not only what we show, but how we show up in people’s lives. We want art and design to feel welcoming, exciting, transformative. The kind of work that makes someone stop for a second and think: oh, WOW. That’s why we launched ONNI in December together with Lyle Gallery, as a labor of love celebrating true craftsmanship, thoughtful design, and the beauty of handmade objects.

Right now we’re all seeing visually unbelievable things online every day, increasingly things made by AI in seconds. So that visual ”wow” doesn’t always hit the same way.

But what still moves people, and what we believe always will, is human creativity.

That moment of seeing something and thinking:

Someone actually made this.

Someone sat with an idea for months, or years. Obsessed over tiny details. Made mistakes, changed direction, tried again.

Whether it’s art, design, or architecture, that human creativity is what drives us to do what we do. Because it reminds us what we’re actually capable of, and what being human is all about.

We’re incredibly grateful to journalist Lisa Di Venuta for including these works in an article celebrating creativity that thinks outside the box.

And if you’re curious, Sophie Collé’s clock is currently on view at our Chelsea gallery, while a few of the last available works from Liu Shuishi’s exhibition can still be viewed by appointment ✨

Overhearing people notice something about the art is one of my favorite things as a gallery owner.

Recently, someone pointed at a Cat Spilman painting and asked with genuine curiosity:

“Why is there a little dot in all of them?”

If you’ve seen Cat’s work, you’ve probably noticed it too. The answer is deeply personal and far more emotional than you might expect. So I wanted Cat to tell the story herself:

“My work has always been about a sense of place, identity, separation and belonging. My late husband died during a Covid lockdown three months after we moved from NYC to the UK. I barely knew anyone in the country and isolation and grief compounded each other.

My studio, my work, was the place I could remember who I was as I started putting pieces back together. I started obsessively painting shapes and lines, always connected by a thin cord to this Dot. Over and over again I painted this Dot, usually in a far corner away from the bulk of the painting. It took me a long time to realise that I was the shape, and this Dot was home. It was the feeling of familiarity, the feeling of being known. I was reaching for it over and over again.

Over the years, as I’ve built a life in the UK, the Dot has gone from this thing which is out of reach to one that has been cultivated, and is now cradled and protected.
Every day when I come to the studio I paint to see where and how lam, to make peace with myself and to feel known. I’m now preparing for my first solo exhibition in the US, and am having to confront some unexpected feelings about what ‘home’ is.”

“Dear New York” - A solo exhibition - is on view through June 7 at .gallery.nyc

More than 70,000 women serve in Ukraine’s Armed Forces. Since women are exempt from the military draft, all of these servicewomen are volunteers.

On May 14, the photography exhibition “Through Her Eyes” – organized by the American Ukraine Committee – opened at our Tribeca location.

The exhibition features the work of seven Ukrainian women soldiers documenting the war’s effect on everyday life. The photographs capture both devastation, strength, and resilience, offering deeply personal perspectives from within the conflict itself.

On view at 39 Lispenard Street in Tribeca, New York City, through June 6, the exhibition is accompanied by a 176 page photography book containing 76 photographs.

Proceeds from both the exhibition and the publication will go to the American Ukraine Committee, a 501(c)(4) membership organization founded in 2024 to transform broad public and congressional support for Ukraine into durable political action in Washington.

We are honored to support this project and collaborate with activist and American Ukraine Committee co-founder Olga Sunden.

New Arrivals ‼️ Rare Richard Hambleton silkscreens from the 2000s. Hambleton created these works in collaboration with art dealer Rick Librizzi, experimenting with the screen on different colored sheets of paper. Each work is hand-signed and marked “A/P” for artist proof. Hambleton never went on to produce a numbered edition, adding to the rarity of these works.

There are four available and they are viewable at our Chelsea location.

Fun fact: As well as collecting art, Isabella Stewart Gardner (the pioneering American art collector and philanthropist who opened her museum in Boston in 1903) had a passion for orchids. During the coldest months of the year, a celebrated collection of tropical plants adorns the Courtyard of the Isabella Stewart Gardner Museum, among them Cymbidium orchids.

Indigenous to parts of Asia and Australia, these flowers have long been associated with virtue, purity, and enduring friendship, and have been thought to have healing properties.

This painting by titled “Patterned Silk” features Cymbdium orchids paired with Mexican bush sage (the dark purple blooms). Known for its resilience, Mexican bush sage thrives in harsh conditions while flowering vividly, and is often associated with longevity and healing.

This painting is part of Stephanie’s show “Wild Flower” – a collection of works featuring arrangements of different flora species from across Australia. The show is up through tomorrow at our Tribeca location 🌷
