About the Gallery
With two exhibition spaces, AREA 919 is committed to presenting both high quality shows of works by established and emerging contemporary artists alongside an evolving collection of carefully selected antiques and decorative objects. By addressing these two intersecting but often distant worlds, AREA 919 attempts to establish a dialogue that will use the energy of Philadelphia's emerging art scene to activate a renewed taste and love for the objects that have given texture to the everyday lives of the past. In their turn, these rescued pieces will act as reminders for an integrated approach to artworks as objects and processes we live and grow with, rather than merely visit, creating an inheritance of culture within our own lifetime. AREA 919 would like to intervene in the places we inhabit through the art and objects that inhabit us.
