56 Henry (art gallery)

56 Henry is an American contemporary art gallery owned by Eleanor Rines. It is located at 56 Henry Street in New York City.[1]

History

Rines opened her first gallery, 55 Gansevoort, in New York's Meatpacking District in 2013. The gallery was known for showcasing unique emerging and established artists in its modest storefront space.[2] When the space was sold by the owners in August 2015, Rines moved the gallery to 56 Henry in New York's Two Bridges neighborhood of Lower Manhattan, bordering Chinatown, and changed its name accordingly.[3] It is located at street level, and the gallery’s exhibitions are visible to the public twenty-four hours a day. 56 HENRY’s first exhibition was Polly Apfelbaum’s FREE, December 11, 2015 – January 31, 2016.[4]

56 HENRY is dedicated to fostering the development of emerging artists who provide refreshing and unusual perspectives within the contemporary art scene.[5] It is a member of the New Art Dealer’s Alliance (NADA) and regularly participates in its annual art fair held in Miami.[6] 56 HENRY partnered with Detroit gallery Reyes | Finn on the exhibition Nick Doyle: No Vacancy, held as part of the collaborative exhibition series Condo New York 2019.[7]
