FOUNDER
11:Eleven gallery was founded by curator Nicola Charles, whose work bridges the Washington, DC, and international art scenes.
Nicola completed curatorial studies at Sotheby’s Institute of Art, London, and has worked alongside leading dealers in the secondary market, gaining insight into blue-chip contemporary art.
Originally from London, she brings an international perspective to the gallery’s programme and the Washington, DC art scene. She currently serves on the global curatorial board for Artfinder.com and on the board of Directors at Project Create, which supports arts education for underserved youth.
