"ACE Gallery founder Douglas Chrismas opened his own frame shop and gallery in Vancouver at the age of 17. His gallery became known as a venue where Vancouver artists could show alongside major New Yorkers, and get the feeling of belonging to a bigger scene. In the 60s and early 70s he brought artists such as Robert Rauschenberg, Carl Andre, Sol LeWitt, Bruce Nauman, and Donald Judd to Vancouver, Canada.
The gallery expanded to Los Angeles in 1967 at the former Virginia Dwan Gallery space in Westwood, and then further expanded to New York in 1994. The galleries were noted for doing museum-level exhibitions by up-and-coming and internationally renowned artists."
ABOUT THE SERIES:
Originally commissioned by Chrismas for the ACE Gallery (1976-1977). "The portrait depicts Russell Means, an American Indian rights activist and member of the American Indian Movement. Warhol's portraits of Russell Means (18 in total) have become an emblem of the crises of contemporary America and the importance of its minorities."
