Louis Stern Fine Arts, Contemporary art gallery in West Hollywood, United States.
Louis Stern Fine Arts is an art gallery in West Hollywood housed in a building on Melrose Avenue, presenting rotating and permanent exhibitions. The collection includes various works spanning abstract paintings, impressionist pieces, and contemporary art forms.
The gallery was established in 1988 by Louis Stern, a Morocco-born art dealer who built on expertise developed in his earlier career with his father Frederic. The space later focused more on West Coast abstraction and became an important exhibition venue for Hard-edge movement artists.
The gallery plays a role in the contemporary art world by showcasing artists who work with abstraction and modern techniques. Visitors can see how artistic movements have developed in the region and which local and international artists are currently featured.
Visitors can arrange private viewings to explore the collection at their own pace and speak with gallery staff. It helps to check opening hours in advance, as the gallery may not be open daily for walk-in visits.
The gallery initiated the Alfredo Ramos Martinez Research Project, a research effort that began in 1991 and focuses on documenting Mexican modernist art history. This project shows a deeper commitment to researching and preserving artistic traditions beyond commercial exhibitions.
