Welcome to Wick Monet, located in Pittsburgh's central Shadyside neighborhood. Wick Monet is a place where art connects people. Our gallery is a responsive canvas for experiencing diverse art forms, engaging in workshops, and participating in grounded events like film screenings and social gatherings. It's an open space where art is approachable and made by someone as real, vulnerable, as adventurous, and as driven as you.
The people, essential to the formation and foundation of Wick Monet form the Wick Monet Art Collective. This group, eclectic in backgrounds and life experiences, mirrors our multifaceted world. Embodying empathy, they channel varied life journeys into their work. The collective believes in interdependency, driving them to create art that resonates deeply and fosters understanding. They are brilliant, introspective, and fundamentally good-hearted, using art for genuine human connection and societal impact.
Wick Monet’s focus is centered on three key areas:
Supporting Artists: Understanding the challenges artists face, we offer them the necessary resources to thrive. Our support extends to providing spaces for creation and exhibition, marketing assistance, and a nurturing network. We believe in empowering artists to focus on their craft while we handle the practical aspects of showcasing their work.
Empowering Art Amplifiers: Recognizing the importance of those who work behind the scenes, we also provide support to curators, marketers, photographers, and others who play crucial roles in the art world. Wick Monet values these contributors, understanding their success is essential to the overall health of the art community.
Dope Events: Our gallery space is versatile, hosting a range of events that bring people together. From lively dance parties to introspective exhibitions, each event is an opportunity for connection and community building. We believe in the power of these gatherings to unite people under the shared passion for art, fostering a sense of collective growth.
Wick Monet is a journey into the depths of creativity and human connection. In a world where art's value is often overshadowed by commercial interests, we operate as a space for authenticity and exploration. We value art for its ability to stir emotions, challenge viewpoints, and connect us on a deeper level.
