Founded in 1979, Christopher Grimes Gallery presents a diverse yet rigorous program of contemporary art in a variety of media including painting, photography, installation, performance, sculpture and video. The gallery actively works with emerging and established artists such as Marco Brambilla, Takehito Koganezawa, Iñigo Manglano-Ovalle, Julião Sarmento, Allan Sekula and Tunga. The gallery has curated and traveled ambitious projects such as Amnesia: Contemporary Art from South America (July 1 – September 12, 1988), which included 16 artists (Waltercio Caldas, Iñigo Manglano-Ovalle, Oscar Muñoz, Ernesto Neto, Roberto Obregon, and Tunga, among others) from four South American countries (Argentina, Brazil, Columbia, and Venezuela). The exhibition traveled to Contemporary Art Center, Cincinnati, OH; Biblioteca Luis Angel Arango, Bogota, Columbia; Contemporary Art Museum, Tampa, FL; and Bronx Museum, New York, NY. This exhibition was accompanied by a publication. In July 2011 the gallery organized an artist-curated exhibition, Super 8 (July 9 – September 3, 2011), which brought together 40 video artists from eight international cities: Berlin, Dublin, Lisbon, London, Los Angeles, Rio de Janeiro, San Francisco, and Tokyo. The exhibition traveled to Yerba Buena Center for the Arts, San Francisco, CA; Kunstlerhaus Bethanien, Berlin, Germany; and Museum of Modern Art, Rio de Janeiro, Brazil.
