History

Anita Shapolsky was born in New York as Anita Kresofsky.[1] She attended Hunter College, where she earned a B.A. and where her interest in art began, and New York University, where she earned an M.A.[1][2] She married Martin (Meyer) Shapolsky, a realtor. They had a son, Ian, and a daughter, Lisa, together. Martin died in 1992.[1]

Shapolsky began collecting ancient art, and in the 1970s started to collect contemporary art, focusing on abstract expressionism.[3][1] Anita Shapolsky opened the gallery in 1982 on the second floor of 99 Spring Street in SoHo, in Manhattan.[1][4][5][6] It was originally known as the Arbitrage Gallery, or alternatively, the Arbitrage Art Gallery.[1][7] At the time, it housed a collection of American abstract art from the 1950s.[6]

In 1984, the gallery moved to 99 Spring Street and in that space they began to display Latin American and women artists.[1][4][6][8][9] In 1997, the gallery moved to two floors in a brownstone townhouse at 152 East 65th Street in the Upper East Side of Manhattan.[1][4][6][10]
