It all began for Essex Flowers in 2013, in the basement of the eponymous flower shop located at 365 Grand Street on the Lower East Side of Manhattan. Bill Frazer, the flower shop’s owner, sought the artists out, looking for individuals to show art in his space. Nine artists began the endeavor, adopting a flexible gallery model—part-artist co-op, part kunsthalle. They’ve since moved and grown in members. And while still in search of a permanent space, the founders maintain their pursuit to show the artists they want to see.
