Taglialatella Galleries

Only a quick walk from the High Line and a short bus ride away from Baruch College, is Taglialatella Galleries, which I recently visited and was delighted to find some treasures in. For nearly four decades, Taglialatella has built distinguished collections worldwide with locations in New York, Palm Beach, and Paris. Tagliatella Galleries opened in 1978 in Lambertville, New Jersey, and opened its New York City branch in 1981. Amongst the featured artists were Lichtenstein, Warhol, Indiana, Hirst, Christo, Frankenthaler, Appel, Calder, Hay, Katz, Young, Basquiat, Sanzi, and Wesselmann, some of the biggest names in the art industry.

When I visited the gallery, I had the opportunity to get up close to many of the pieces, and even got to watch as the curator and staff members hung up the artwork, made phone calls to what I might assume were potential buyers or collectors of these fine works, and every once in a while, stopped to just appreciate the environment they were in. The gallery had a busy vibe with everyone hustling and bustling to put all the artwork in place. The artwork was even reflective of this with its brightly colored Warhols, and fun Harrings.
