About the Gallery
The Meeting was founded in 2016 by Bill Cournoyer and is based in the West Village neighborhood of New York City. Its mission is to present a muti-generational and international program of contemporary artists. Its name references the painting “The Meeting, Or Bonjour Monsieur” by Gustave Courbet, a masterpiece that depicts an encounter between the artist and his patron, and which defines the synergetic relationship between them.
The gallery has presented the debut solo exhibitions of Andy Bennett, Nick Hoecker, Samuel Farrier, and Tod Lippy, as well as the first New York solo exhibitions of Andrew Chapman, Buck Ellison, Christopher Culver, Henry Belden, Hongyan, Jack Ryan, and Patrick Carroll.
