About the Gallery
Bernard Goldberg Fine Arts, LLC specializes in American art created in the early 20th Century, with a specific interest in early modernism, the Ashcan School and the Steiglitz Circle. Along with paintings, works on paper and sculpture, we also exhibit decorative works by modernist artists such as Samuel Yellin, Edgar Brandt and Frank Lloyd Wright.

Art Deco was born in France in the early 20th century and made its official debut at the Exposition Internationale des Arts Décoratifs et Industriels Modernes held in Paris in 1925. At Independent 20th Century, Bernard Goldberg Fine Arts will celebrate the centenary of the movement and the dazzling decade that defined it—the Roaring Twenties. This group presentation captures the spirit of an era marked by liberation, jazz, and high design. From recently rediscovered mural panels by Robert Winthrop Chanler to the sleek modernist sculpture of Alexander Archipenko, the exhibition explores how artists and designers embraced a new visual language to reflect the energy of a changing world.
