The Lower East Side pioneer explains how radical cinema shaped his vision

Meet Miguel Abreu Gallery

‘I’ve used my filmmaking approach to design the gallery experience.’ – Miguel Abreu, founder of Miguel Abreu GalleryMiguel Abreu was among the first to open a gallery in the Lower East Side, a Manhattan district which is today teeming with art spaces. Abreu’s vision has been shaped by cinema, and in particular by the work of experimental filmmakers Jean-Marie Straub and Danièle Huillet. The gallerist has applied this passion to the gallery, curating his exhibitions as film sequences for over a decade.In its debut presentation at Art Basel in Hong Kong, Miguel Abreu Gallery will show works by Pamela Rosenkranz, Yuji Agematsu, Jean-Luc Moulène, Liz Deschenes, Sam Lewitt, and Pieter Schoolwerth.
