DC Moore Gallery

DC Moore Gallery Representing contemporary and 20th-century American artists Founded in 1995, the Gallery recently relocated to Chelsea.

DC Moore Gallery represents a lively mix of more than twenty contemporary artists and also offers the finest in twentieth-century American painting, sculpture, and works on paper, including Modernism, Ashcan, African American, Regionalism, Social Realism, and mid-century Abstraction. In our expanded space, we organize fifteen to twenty exhibitions a year, ranging from historical presentations of s

pecific periods and themes to focused one-person shows and major career retrospectives. Our publications program produces a wide range of catalogues and books with essays by well-known art historians and critics. We also frequently work with museums and other institutions, organizing joint exhibitions and sending our traveling exhibitions to their venues. Contemporary artists represented include Eric Aho, Theresa Daddezio, Janet Fish, Mary Frank, Chie Fueki, Mark Innerst, Yvonne Jacquette, Valerie Jaudon, Joyce Kozloff, Robert Kushner, Whitfield Lovell, Duane Michals, Carrie Moyer, Katia Santibañez, Claire Sherman, Barbara Takenaga, Darren Waterston, and Alexi Worth. The Gallery also represents the foundations and estates of Romare Bearden, Charles Burchfield, Robert De Niro, Sr., David Driskell, Jacob Lawrence, Ralph Eugene Meatyard, George Tooker, and Jane Wilson. We are dedicated to providing expertise and guidance to both beginning and established collectors, as well as working with museum, corporate, and other art professionals in the acquisition and sale of works of art. DC Moore Gallery is a member of the Art Dealers Association of America.

DC Moore Gallery is deeply saddened to announce that Duane Michals passed away on June 9, 2026. He was 94 years old.

One of the most influential photographic innovators of the 20th century, Michals is widely celebrated for his work with sequences, multiple exposures, and text. Michals first made significant, creative strides in the field of photography during the 1960s, an era heavily influenced by photojournalism and Henri Cartier-Bresson’s "decisive moment." Rather than seeking to reproduce reality, he was interested in the expression of interior worlds, dreams, and metaphysical questions.

Throughout his career, Michals continued to push the boundaries of photography, incorporating painting, collage, sculpture, and film into his practice. His restless curiosity pushed him to innovate and surprise, as the artist said, “The focus changes constantly. And the more it changes and the older I get, the less sure I am about everything and the less I seem to know. I seem to ask more and more questions. I’m completely bewildered. That also is a kind of wisdom, allowing oneself to unlearn. My work is about the absurdity of this condition.”

Duane Michals is predeceased by his partner of 51 years, Fred Gorrée (1931-2017). We are grateful to have worked with Duane for many years and learned from his boundless creativity, keen perception, and one-of-a-kind humor.
