Curatorial Ethos
The gallery champions and showcases the art of self-taught masters working outside the continuum of art history, emphasizing a pioneering program that highlights the crossover between vernacular and mainstream artistic traditions. Its mission involves managing key estates of artists such as Martín Ramírez, William Hawkins, and Domingo Guccione, while producing seminal books with major publishing partners to elevate the status of these visionary creators.
Ricco/Maresca Gallery is a commercial art gallery located at 529 West 20th Street in New York's Chelsea district, founded in 1979 by Frank Maresca and Roger Ricco. The gallery specializes in Outsider, Self-Taught, Contemporary, and historically significant American Folk art, having helped blur the lines between conventional art-historical categories and "marginal" art for over 40 years. It maintains two exhibition spaces on the third floor: Gallery One for major exhibitions and Gallery Two as an ever-changing salon showcasing the crossover of vernacular traditions into the mainstream.
