Background
Patricia Correia Gallery (PCG) was first established in Venice,
California in 1991. Since then, the Gallery has provided a forum for
artists who create contemporary fine arts and artists who work in
various media including painting, sculpture, photography, printmaking,
installation, video, and new genre. In 1994 the gallery was invited to
participate at Bergamot Station Art Center in Santa Monica, CA. From
1991 through 2003, the focus of the gallery was on contemporary fine art
originating on the West Coast, with a concentration on artwork from Los
Angeles, California.
