Strange Loop Gallery
A live art gallery on the Lower East Side of New York City
History
Established in 2011.
Strange Loop Gallery was founded by artists Claire Fleury and Alesia Exum. They strive to create a ‘Living Environment’ for the art that they exhibit. For every exhibition, which is usually based on a theme, they recreate the entire space to accomodate the art in an uplifting and inspiring way. The names of their exhibitions give a hint to what to expect: Love Conques All — Renaissance — Anthem, a song of celebration — XX as in Female Chromosomes.
