Philosophy
Beauty is subjective and can be found in anything, anywhere, anytime. For each individual, notions of beauty are shaped both by their culture and society and by their experiences and personalities. Uncommon Beauty Gallery looks at contemporary artists whose art reflects their vision of the world through different mediums and practices.
Uncommon Beauty Gallery's curating principles are:
Welcoming experimental, emerging, established practices
Fostering an open and flexible approach to Beauty
Creating a global community
… and contemporary.
About
Established in 2018 and based in New York, Uncommon Beauty Gallery represents artists from all over the world, predominantly featuring the work of female artists. Uncommon Beauty follows a socially conscious model and recognizes that minorities, female, queer and gender non-conforming artists are grossly under-represented in today’s art market. Uncommon Beauty is determined to contribute to improving this unfair imbalance.
The Founder
