About

Why this artist matters now

Sidney Janis was a wealthy clothing manufacturer and art collector who opened an art gallery in New York City in 1948. His gallery quickly gained prominence, for he not only exhibited work by the Abstract Expressionists, but also European artists such as Pierre Bonnard, Paul Klee, Joan Miró, and Piet Mondrian.
