Night Gallery is celebrating one decade as Los Angeles' leading platform for emerging Artists. Founded by Davida Nemeroff in 2010, the Gallery was first housed within a strip-mall storefront in the city's Lincoln Heights neighborhood, where Openings were held between 10 PM and 2 AM. In 2013, Night Gallery moved to its current location on the southern edge of downtown L.A.- enlisting well-regarded architect Peter Zellner, known for designing the Matthew Marks gallery in West Hollywood and Susanne Vielmetter gallery in Culver City- to design the 6,200-square-foot Gallery. Over the past 10 years, Night Gallery has become the locus of Los Angeles' thriving Contemporary Art community- representing many of today's foremost considered and consequential Artists, including: Mira Dancy, Samara Golden, Wanda Koop, Jesse Mockrin, and Robert Nava.

Wand Koop

Over the course of her career, Wanda Koop has had over 60 one-person exhibitions throughout Canada, as well as in Great Britain, The Netherlands, Germany, India, Brazil, China, Japan, and Italy (the latter was in conjunction with the 2001 Venice Biennale). The National Gallery of Canada together with the Winnipeg Art Gallery mounted a major survey exhibition of her work in 2010-2011. 

Wanda Koop has been the recipient of numerous awards. She received the Queen Elizabeth II Golden and Diamond Jubilee Medals, and the Japan Fund Award from the Canada Council, she was appointed a Member of the Order of Manitoba and in 2006 was appointed a Member of the order Of Canada, the highest civilian honour given to Canadians.
