Jeremy Stone Gallery

In 1980, Jeremy Stone moved to San Francisco and within two years, she established her own gallery. The Jeremy Stone Gallery was a seminal presence in the San Francisco art scene from its founding 1982 until its closure in 1991. Located in the vibrant heart of California's cultural landscape, the gallery was the brainchild of Jeremy Stone, daughter of renowned New York art dealer, gallerist, and collector, Allan Barry Stone. Her early exposure to the art world, through part-time work at her father's gallery during her high school and college years, and her subsequent academic and professional engagements, laid the groundwork for her own venture into the art business.

The Jeremy Stone Gallery. The gallery focused on modern and contemporary art, providing a platform primarily for emerging and mid-career American artists. Among those were notable figures such as Sylvia Lark, Marshall Crossman, Mary Lovelace O'Neal, Carlos Almaraz, Arshile Gorky, James Havard, Richard Hickam, Franz Kline, Joanne Leonard, Sue Miller, Richard Sheehan, Wayne Thiebaud, Susan Hauptman, Inez Storer, Guy Diehl, and Stanley Goldstein. Over its nearly decade-long operation, the gallery curated and mounted over 80 exhibitions, significantly influencing local and national art narratives.
