Conner Contemporary Art
Interior of the gallery

Conner Contemporary Art is a fine art gallery in Washington, DC founded by Leigh Conner in 2000. The gallery represents diverse contemporary artists working in all media. The curatorial program is unified by strong conceptual bases, including identity, materiality, historicity and popular iconography, which define and adjust contemporary art's function within the current of cultural change. In addition to its exhibition schedule, the gallery implements artistic initiatives such as performances, web-casts and off-site projects. Conner Contemporary also participates regularly in international art fairs including Pulse London, Pulse Miami, Pulse New York and MACO, Mexico City.

*gogo art projects

Conner Contemporary Art launched *gogo art projects in fall 2006 to incubate emerging and experimental art. *gogo evolved from Conner's annual BFA/MFA graduate exhibition, Academy, begun in 2000. Promoting new talent engendered a strategic initiative to mobilize promising artists toward the next professional level.
