Immediate Release (02/15/09)
New Art Gallery Project Managed by
Empire Projects, Inc.
A new art
gallery --- project managed by Empire Projects, Inc. --- has
opened in Manhattan.
The gallery
is located on West 57th Street, and features the work of the
artist Ana Tzarev.
The area of
the project is approximately 10,000 sf, and is organized around
a dramatic triple-height space, which in turn is anchored by a
unique, oval, glass elevator.
The
materials of the gallery were chosen with care. They make an
architectural statement which nevertheless defers to the
artistic statement of the paintings displayed in the space.
The new
entrance facade is a handsome glass curtain wall, framed by
black stone panels, with a bronze entrance portal marking the
entrance from the street.
The interior
features terrazzo floors and wood floors, a curved stair with
terrazzo treads wrapping the elevator, concealed lighting, and
clear and translucent glass panels. The understated neutral
color scheme provides an appropriate backdrop to the large,
brightly-colored paintings displayed in the gallery.
The project
featured a wide range of infrastructure upgrades, including new
hvac systems, new electrical systems, new humidifcation system,
new elevator, new structural support, new sprinklers, new fire
alarm system, new security system and new art storage system.
Project
management of an art gallery design and construction project
requires an understanding of what makes a successful art gallery
design, and how that design can be implemented appropriately
through the construction process. In addition, the art gallery's
location in Manhattan, required expertise in the logistics of
building in Manhattan, as well as the approval process of the
New York City Building Department, and the New York City Fire
Department.

information about how to project manage the design and
construction of a successful art gallery in an urban setting
such as Manhattan, please contact art gallery project management
