Naomi Gates Gallery was founded in 1996 in SoHo, New York City. Since its inception the Gallery's mission has been to represent and support the work of emerging international artists of all media. The Gallery's first generation of artists has gone on to enjoy significant international acclaim, as has the Gallery's second group of artists brought on between 1999-2001.
Since 2001 the Gallery has added several artists with strong existing careers to the program. In concert with the Gallery's move to its new ground floor home designed by Sir Norman Foster and Partners on West 22nd Street in Chelsea, the Gallery has again focused on its original and ongoing mission by adding seven recent art school graduates to its roster of artists. In March 2008, this gallery was showing works from artist Yazmany Arboleda that dealt with the presidential elections and the character assassination of democratic candidates Obama and Clinton.[1]
In March 2008, the Gallery unexpectedly shut down Yazmany Arboleda's show [[2]
