218 Pearl Street
Hartford, CT
An art gallery in Hartford
From 2014 to 2019, Gallery owner and founder Eric Ben-Kiki produced exhibitions and events bringing a wide spectrum of contemporary art to Downtown Hartford. Located on the street level of the Historical Goodwin Building, this new gallery space was perfectly suited for presenting small focused one person shows of contemporary artwork, with an eye for those seeking a way to acquire art from truly accomplished artists.
Although the space is no longer active, the shows produced are viewable in full on this page. Each exhibit is also an introduction to the artist’s ongoing body of work. Below you will find a link (click on an image or where it says “online gallery”) to each exhibit web page of the shows that were produced. The artwork that is available in each exhibit will also have a gallery pricing sheet as a PDF file to view, print or download.
You are also invited to subscribe to the email list where you will receive announcements for future projects and exhibits.
