In 1963, renowned American sculptor Chaim Gross and his wife Renee converted an art storage warehouse in Greenwich Village into their home and studio. They added a sculpture studio to the ground floor, which is illuminated by an enormous skylight that underwent extensive restoration work in 2017-18. The first floor showcases work spanning Gross’s entire career in both the studio and the adjacent gallery. The second floor houses a temporary exhibition space. On the third floor, see how the Gross family lived surrounded by their global, world-class art collection in their historic, salon-style installation of African, American, European, and Pre-Columbian collections.
