Berry Campbell is pleased to announce the exclusive representation of Janice Biala (1903-2000). In April of this year, in collaboration with the Estate of Janice Biala, Berry Campbell organized the critically acclaimed solo exhibition Biala: Paintings 1946-1986. This survey featured 30 paintings and works on paper from the Estate of Janice Biala, highlighting several works that have not been on view since they were created. This exhibition was accompanied by a fully illustrated, 100-page catalogue featuring an introduction by Mary Gabriel and an in-depth essay by Jason Andrew, Director of the Estate of Janice Biala. As part of this announcement, the Estate released this statement:

This collaboration marks an exciting new chapter in honoring Biala’s unique talent and extraordinary legacy. Berry Campbell’s deep appreciation for artists of Biala’s generation and beyond makes them an ideal partner, and we trust their expertise will elevate her profile and connect her with new audiences. We look forward to seeing Biala’s legacy thrive under their care.

Berry Campbell recently sold a Biala painting as part of their presentation at The Armory Show and will include a rare early painting at The Art Show (ADAA). Additionally, Biala’s La Seine: Paris la Nuit, 1954, is on view at the Addison Gallery of American Art, Andover, Massachusetts, as part of the Americans in Paris: Artists Working in Postwar France curated by Debra Balken and Lynn Gumpert, co-organized with NYU Grey Art Gallery, New York. Biala is also featured in Seeing Red: Renoir to Warhol at the Nassau County Museum of Art, Roslyn, New York. Berry Campbell looks forward to a long and fruitful partnership with the Estate of Janice Biala.
