Gallerist Bernice Steinbaum To Close Miami Gallery!

Bernice Steinbaum, one of the most energetic and dedicated gallery owners I've ever worked with—in New York and then Miami—is closing her Miami gallery after 12 years.  I remember when she left her New York Soho gallery to open her Miami gallery, I was shocked then, and shocked now that she won't own her own gallery any longer.  At 70 (which surprises me, as she seems ageless), it's time for a change.  Bernice has always worked with extremely talented artists, with whom I've had the pleasure of working, including Ken Aptekar, Hung Liu, and MacArthur "Genius" Award winner Deborah Willis, to name a few.

Bernice, you are a force of nature! You shall be missed!
