Community of art galleries grows in DUMBO
Two Trees Management Co., the founding developer of the now thriving waterfront community of DUMBO, has recently announced that Folioleaf and Art Dealer Stephen Romano will be joining DUMBO’s art gallery community. Both have leased space at 111 Front Street, joining fellow gallery tenants A.I.R. Gallery, Arcilesi Homberg Fine Art, Artadia: The Fund for Art and Dialogue, Brooklyn Arts Council, Giacobetti Paul Gallery, Klompching Gallery, MINUS SPACE, Mighty Tanaka and United Photo Industries.
Folioleaf, a new project by gallerist and fine-art entrepreneur Todd Masters, will present affordable editions by an international roster of artists, focusing on prints and photography. Folioleaf will open its doors to the public on Feb. 6, in conjunction with DUMBO’s First Thursday Gallery Walk. Its inaugural show “Make Shift” celebrates contemporary techniques, style, and methods of screen printing with a selection of editions published in Brooklyn since 2009.
