Copro Gallery was founded in 1992 as an entity to curate art exhibitions of emerging artists and publish the highest quality limited edition prints. Copro Gallery also became a base for assisting and curating museum exhibitions which it continues to do. In 1994 owner Greg Escalante co-founded Juxtapoz magazine and the gallery participated with the magazine to curate, publicize and be a media sponsor of many events inside and outside of the gallery and further promote artists.
In 2005 The Gallery moved to Bergamot Station arts complex in Santa Monica CA . The gallery is divided into two exhibition spaces, sometimes featuring a single artist but often two or three. Large group exhibitions are also featured often in conjunction with outside curators . In following with it's original mission, Copro participates in International Art Fairs and curates outside exhibits to help promote their artists.
Focusing on museum quality installations showcasing emerging artists, Copro also exhibits many established and master painters. Placing works in museums and private collections throughout the world, Copro strives to assist collectors new and experienced in building the most exciting collections possible.
