The gallery’s collection focuses on unique artworks and limited edition prints by internationally renowned artists. Modern art refers to works from the late 19th to mid-20th centuries, while Contemporary art reflects global and technological changes in the late 20th and 21st centuries.....[1], [2].
With galleries in New York and London and an office in Miami, the gallery is also known for its art historical research, producing exhibition catalogues, monographs, and related materials for collectors and the public. Upsilon Gallery routinely participates in notable international art fairs across the United States, Europe, and Asia.
