bioghist: label: Biographical / Historical
content: The Prince Street Gallery is a cooperative gallery founded in New York, New York, in 1970 by fifteen artists. The gallery was and continues to operate as an entirely artist-run organization, initially exhibiting only figurative art but ultimately expanding to include representational and abstract art. The gallery had close ties with two other artist-run galleries, Bowery and Blue Mountain Gallery. All three applied for grants together, occupied the same buildings, and held joint benefit events. Prince Street was located in the Soho neighborhood of Manhattan until its move to Chelsea in 2001. Prince street also held lectures, poetry readings, and juried exhibitions in addition to its member's shows.
