The Grommet Gallery
In 1976, Jean Dupuy acquired from George Maciunas the second-floor loft on the Broadway side of the Cast Iron Court Corporation, the last of the artists' co-ops that Maciunas created in New York City. Members of the co-op included Fluxus artists Nam June Paik, Shigeko Kubota, Yoshi Wada, Ay-O, and Simone Forti. Maciunas had used this loft as his studio for nearly a year before suffering a violent aggression in the space and subsequently deciding to leave New York and to take up residence in Great Barrington, Massachusetts. Shortly after moving into the space with Olga Adorno, Jean Dupuy opened the Grommet Studio, where for the next three years he presented the series of Collective Performance Concerts which are documented in his Collective Consciousness, PAJ Publications, NY, 1980.
In 1982, after beginning the realization of optical works, Jean Dupuy rented the front half of his loft to Emily Harvey, who was working at that time as a corporate art consultant. The Grommet Gallery opened under Emily Harvey's direction on January 15, 1982 with Olga Adorno's first solo exhibition. All of the gallery's shows for the next two years were curated by Jean Dupuy and Christian Xatrec. It was during this period that Emily Harvey first became acquainted with the Fluxus movement and the artists she would later represent. She refounded the gallery in her own name when Jean Dupuy and Olga Adorno moved to France in the spring of 1984.
