Established in 1995 in NYC by co-founders James Cavello and Margarite Almeida, Westwood Gallery NYC is dedicated to recontextualizing art history, supporting the local Bowery Arts community, and rescuing, preserving, and archiving the works of overlooked artist estates. In 2016, the gallery moved into its current space at 262 Bowery, dedicated to exhibiting the internationally known and historically overlooked artists that have called New York City’s Bowery neighborhood their studios and homes. Recently, the gallery has expanded its program to include veteran New York artists working in all media.
