A circular rubbing with the word EAT appearing twice in a cruciform design in the center. A ring surrounding the circle contains the text "The American Company." "New York" appears below the circle.

Vintage exhibition posters from the galleries of Jill Kornblee, Martha Jackson, Eleanore Saidenberg, and Eleanor Ward, adorn the stairwell. Frayed corners and creases in the black and white flyer for Louise Bourgeois at Stable Gallery (Ward’s outpost) and the solid red announcement for Jim Dine at Martha Jackson adds a touch of nostalgia to a thoughtfully organized “greatest hits” show. Curators Damon Brandt and Valentina Branchini are staking a claim in the pedigree of Madison Avenue itself as an incubator of revolutionary art of the sixties, and more importantly presenting women gallerists as dynamos of culture at that time.
