Nicodim

Mihai Nicodim opened his first gallery in 2006 in Los Angeles with a focus on exposing emerging and overlooked American, African, Asian, and European artists to an international audience. Nicodim opened a Bucharest gallery in 2014 and expanded to an additional location in Soho, New York in 2021. The artists on the gallery's roster share a common interest in reassessing art history from an outsider's perspective and challenging its established framework. The gallery was early to present Isabelle Albuquerque (United States), Liang Fu (China), Dominique Fung (Canada), Adrian Ghenie (Romania), Devin B. Johnson (United States), Rae Klein (United States), Ciprian Muresan (Romania), Oscar Murillo (Colombia), Katherina Olschbaur (Austria),Thania Petersen (South Africa), Serban Savu (Romania), and Moffat Takadiwa (Zimbabwe) in major solo exhibitions, placing their works in important private and public collections, and helping their careers blossom into global prominence. The gallery maintains relationships with prominent institutions and has in recent years placed works by the gallery’s artists in the collections of Dallas Museum of Art, Denver Art Museum, the Hammer Museum in Los Angeles, Institute of Contemporary Art in Miami, Los Angeles County Museum of Art, M+ in Hong Kong, Museum of Contemporary Art, Los Angeles, and the Studio Museum in Harlem, amongst others.
