Background:
SUNDAY was founded by artist and curator Clayton Sean Horton in the summer
of 2006 and the gallery opened its first exhibition on October 6, 2006.
The gallery is located in a renovated storefront on the ground floor of
a residential building in the historic Lower East Side of New York City.
The humble, domestically scaled space provides an intimate, casual environment
for viewing art and includes a modest main space and a small, adjacent
project space. The Lower East Side, which has been home to generations
of artists over the years, was chosen with the firm belief that the burgeoning
art scene of the neighborhood provides a more fitting context for emerging
artists and those who may have been overlooked by the marketplace. In
this regard, the gallery’s aim is to offer the numerous benefits
of its unique location to a diverse, intergenerational group of artists
(many of whom explore religious culture, regional vernacular, sexuality,
and semiotics) and to cultivate relationships with collectors, critics,
and curators who favor our approach to business.
