For 40 years, Russo Lee Gallery has been an integral part of the Pacific Northwest’s vibrant contemporary art commu- nity, fostering meaningful connections between artists, collectors and audiences. Founded in 1986 by the late Laura Russo, this milestone celebrates four decades of

thoughtful exhibitions, enduring artistic relationships, and a deep commitment to the artists and ideas that shape our cultural landscape. We look forward to honoring this remarkable history while continuing to champion contemporary art for years to come.
