A Family-Owned Art Gallery
Est. 1979
Our History.
Our first gallery opening took place on December 15th, 1979 in Park Slope. Because of the rapport with Bearden he became our mentor and advanced our knowledge of the history and tradition of Black art in the United States. He encouraged us to devote our talents to establishing a gallery dedicated to the work of the Black fine arts masters and the result was the foundation of Essie Green Galleries.
Essie Green Galleries features the works of Black Masters such as Romare Bearden, Charles Alston, Lois Mailou Jones, Jacob Lawrence, Norman Lewis, Henry Ossawa Tanner, Charles Ethan Porter, Edwin Bannister, Allen Stringfellow Sam Gilliam Alma Thomas, William S. Carter and many other artists of the 19th and 20th centuries.
