Beth Urdang Gallery

Beth Urdang Gallery in Wellesley Square is one of metro Boston’s established exhibition galleries. It focuses on contemporary American painting and works on paper, along with important secondary market works from the American Modernist period of roughly 1915 to 1945. Exhibitions feature individual artists, such as a show of still-life paintings by Christopher Stott, who paints vintage and antique objects as symbols of human creativity and ingenuity.

Beth Urdang brings a painter’s training and more than a decade of New York gallery experience to the business. She earned a BFA and an MA in painting, then worked as Associate Director of the Zabriskie Gallery on 57th Street and as Director of Jeffrey Hoffeld & Co. on Madison Avenue between 1973 and 1984. The gallery’s program spans living American painters and the earlier Modernist generation.
