Blair Clarke

Alumna Blair Clarke is the founder of Voltz Clarke Gallery in New York.

Founded in 2002 in New York City, Voltz Clarke originally focused on private art advisory and curating international popup exhibitions. Expanding on its program, Voltz Clarke moved to its permanent gallery space on the Upper East Side in 2015.

The gallery maintains a roster of emerging and mid career artists focusing on introducing international artists to the New York and wider US market. Founder Blair Clarke believes one should cast the net wide in order to identify new talent. In a market, which is increasingly globalized, she is intrigued by the rich diversity in work found often in unexpected places. Clarke’s experience combines over eighteen years of East coast gallery associations and curatorial projects. In 2015, after thirty years of experience at Christie’s and Sotheby’s auction houses, Alistair Clarke joined the gallery as President.
