Hansel and Gretel Picture Garden Pocket Utopia

"[9] After hosting exhibitions, salon discussions and other events for two years, Pocket Utopia reopened on Henry Street in Manhattan[10] and represented five artists: Sharon Butler (publisher of Two Coats of Paint[11]), Paul D'Agostino,[12] Kris Graves, Ellen Letcher (Co-founder of the now-closed gallery Famous Accountants[13]), and Matthew Miller.

The merger with Hansel and Gretel Picture Garden came after a three-month collaboration between the two galleries beginning with Austin Thomas’ presentation of her drawing practice, "Utopian.

"[15] Hansel and Gretel Picture Garden Pocket Utopia's kunsthalle-like program has included alternative exhibitions from the unveiling of a single painting, to an anonymous show, to work curated from Etsy.com.

A collaboration with Polly Apfelbaum and D'Amelio Gallery[16] resulted in 'Flatland: Color Revolt,' an exhibition of hundreds of piles of loose glitter poured onto soft pancake-like bases.

Examples include the gallery's public conversations with MoMA, and the launch of 'The Glimmering Room,' one of poet Cynthia Cruz's collections of poetry.
