Testimonials

  • “Salon 21 has not only introduced me to amazing artists — it’s truly a place for community. From dinners to figure drawing nights in the studio, they curate experiences for their guests that you can’t find anywhere else.”

    Katie Romero, Content Creator

  • “Alex Bass has been instrumental in shaping the art and cultural landscape of downtown Manhattan. Through Salon 21, her distinctive eye for curation, detail, and design has brought a vivid and fresh perspective to the gallery space. Her exhibitions are not only visually compelling but are brought to life through a thoughtful series of programs that are as insightful as they are dynamic. Alex’s ability to blend art, culture, and experience sets her apart as a visionary curator and interior designer.”

    Tanu Vasu, Artist

  • “For young collectors, there is almost no better place to discover artists and work than the spot-on curation of Salon 21. We especially love that the selected works span across mediums and that shows offer pieces across the spectrum of affordability. Plus their events and openings are never to be missed.”

    Anna & Garett, Cool Stuff NYC

  • “In a time when it’s becoming harder to find genuine spaces to connect in real life, Salon 21 stands out as something truly special. Whether it's an event for founders, art lovers, or creatives of any kind, I always leave feeling inspired and fulfilled. The space Alex has created is not only visually stunning but also opens the door to intentional conversations. Once you experience Salon 21 you immediately know it’s something you want to be part of."
