abstract: label: Summary
content: The Martha Jackson Gallery records consists of 2 microfilm reels and one letter, measuring 0.01 linear feet, and date from 1954 to 1964. Materials on microfilm are mostly artists' files containing mainly correspondence with Jackson and her son David Anderson concerning exhibitions, resumes, price lists, exhibition catalogs, checklists, and receipts. The one item in the collection that is an original document is a letter dated March 29, 1963, from John Hultberg in San Miguel de Allende, Mexico. Hultberg writes of the artist colony there, the difficulty of acquiring artist supplies in Mexico, studio arrangements, his sense "of serenity," his plans, and arrangements for an upcoming exhibition at the Martha Jackson Gallery. The letter was also microfilmed with the rest of the collection.
bioghist: label: Biographical / Historical
content: The Martha Jackson Gallery (est. 1953) was a gallery in New York City. Dealer and collector Martha Jackson founded her gallery at 22 E. 66th Street and moved locations to 32 E. 69th Street three years later. The gallery specialized in modern American and European painting and sculpture, particularly Abstract Expressionists. After Martha Jackson's death in 1969, her son David Anderson took over the gallery, renaming it David Anderson Gallery. Anderson moved to Buffalo, New York in 1988 and the gallery closed operations in 1989. 

Martha Kellogg Jackson (1907-1969) was born in Buffalo, New York. She studied art history at Johns Hopkins University. After graduation, she returned to Buffalo and joined the advisory council of the Albright Art Gallery, now the Albright-Knox Art Gallery. In 1949, Jackson moved to New York City and became a student of artist and teacher Hans Hofmann, who encouraged her to open her own gallery.
