MOTI HASSON GALLERY, located in a 4,000 square-foot ground floor space in Chelsea at 535 West 25th Street designed by Architect Mark Dubois, first opened in January 2005 in New York's Hell's Kitchen. In the past few years, Moti Hasson Gallery has established itself as a destination for the presentation of an innovative program, and in foregrounding premier solo and group exhibitions by an international array of artists. With an eye on the larger field of international art-making, the Gallery works with leading arts professionals in developing the careers of the artists it showcases through exhibitions, art fairs, catalogues, special events, projects, and public programs.

Featuring work by artists worldwide, Moti Hasson Gallery promotes a vital and energetic discourse between artists of different socio-political upbringings and varied schools of thought. As such, the Gallery has garnered recognition from such prominent art publications as Art in America, Art Papers, Art: Review, Modern Painters, New York Magazine, Sculpture Magazine, The New Yorker, The New York Times, Time Out New York, The Village Voice and W Magazine among others, and has increased the profiles of David Kramer, Jiha Moon, Paul Pagk, Shinique Smith, Shirley Shor, and Tommy Hartung among an increasing roster of artists.

Maintaining its interest in engaging in a broader art discourse, Moti Hasson Gallery also produces publications including a limited series of full-color illustrated catalogues, each with an essay by such leading writers, artists, critics, and art historians as Isolde Brielmaier, Tim Davis, Irene Hofmann, Anne Ellegood, Edward M. Gomez and Sara Reisman.
