- A small agallery located just south of Chelsea in the Meat Packing District. Originally CKFA from Brooklyn New York, the Leo Kesting Gallery started in 2003 and developed an aggressive campaign to introduce new figurative artists to collectors and art supports. Leo Kesting offers the art viewing public an opportunity to see forthcoming talents in an intimate setting where new undiscovered cutting-edge artists are exposed to the contemporary art scene. In this way, we present our collectors with an off-the-beaten-path approach to acquiring artwork for our minds and culture.
The gallery is located at 812 Washington St at the corner of Gansevoort in Manhattan's Meat Packing District. A, C, E, or L train to 8th Ave and 14th Street or 1,2,3 train to 14th Street. Gallery hours are Tuesday to Sunday from 11am until 7pm.
