Modern West Fine Art

Modern West is a gallery created by Diane Stewart to support established and emerging contemporary artists who, in compelling and varied ways, reframe our understanding of the West. The gallery opened in 2014 in downtown Salt Lake City and relocated further West, to a larger location, 412 South 700 West in 2019.

Representing approximately 30 artists the gallery also features guest artists in curatorially driven shows. With our expansion we have integrated a curated selection of TASCHEN books, an outdoor sculpture courtyard and a creative event space, upstairs@Modern West. 

We host regular artists workshops and lecture series to engage our patrons. Through thoughtful exhibitions, the gallery illuminates both new and historical bodies of work that are relevant and meaningful for today's audiences. Our beautiful space is also available for events, meetings, photography and community gatherings.

Our mission is not only to educate and inform, but to inspire and enlighten through community minded events that drive social causes and are reflected in our artists work. Shalee Cooper, Tyler Bloomquist, Liberty Blake and Rennie Stewart are excited to engage the community to gather in the space and experience art with a contemporary influence.
