Rena Bransten Gallery

Since its inception, Rena Bransten Gallery (founded by Rena Bransten in 1974), has sought to define its artistic program by including established and emerging artists whose work engages with contemporary, social, and cultural climates. While originally focused on ceramic sculpture, often by California artists, the physical gallery space and scope of exhibitions quickly expanded to include a multidisciplinary program –while sustaining a deeply rooted connection to the crafted object.

Over forty years later, the gallery continues to exhibit national and international contemporary artists in one-person and thematic exhibitions which maintain a dialog with other galleries, museums, and curators.
