For over a decade, Robert Fontaine Gallery has been a fixture on the Miami arts circuit, making a name for itself with shows that switched up established Post-war artists (think Robert Rauschenberg and Ed Ruscha) with young, mainly Miami-based emerging talents, such as Henrietta Harris and Ashley Oubre.Â
Gallery founder Robert Fontaine recently decided it was time to move the gallery one-hour north to Palm Beach and foster a new set of collectors. The freshly renovated gallery, which will officially open later this month, is on the exclusive Worth Avenue strip.
The gallery is inaugurating the space with a colorful group exhibition featuring artists including Wolf Kahn, Keith Haring, Ellsworth Kelly, Donald Sultan, Andy Warhol, and contemporary artists like the street-inspired painter Anthony Lister and Montreal-based artist Vickie Vainionpaa.Â
