This episode we are so excited to be joined by an amazing gallerist and dear friend, Kavi Gupta. Kavi is the founder of the Kavi Gupta Gallery, which opened in Chicago’s West Loop neighborhood in 2002.
Since then, the gallery has grown to two permanent locations that host more than a dozen museum-quality exhibitions each year; representing artists such as: Mickalene Thomas, Manish Nai, Firelei Báez, Angel Otero, (and one of my personal favorites) Jeffrey Gibson - just to name a few. Working alongside these artists to develop new projects, original scholarship, and historic archives, Kavi Gupta's program is renowned for its strong academic focus and forward-thinking vision.
In addition, Kavi Gupta Gallery is a three-time recipient of the prestigious International Association of Art Critics Award for Best Show in a Commercial Space Nationally. You can follow the gallery on Instagram @kavigupta_
