Our mission is to empower you, the collector, to create the unique and sacred art environment in which you will choose to thrive. Representing a wide variety of well established, gallery and museum collected contemporary artists, from Texas, New York, California, Mexico, and around the globe, Cothren Contemporary is uniquely positioned to assist each collector in their creative vision.

Cothren Contemporary’s relaunch in the HTX, with “LatinX Abstract: 713 to 210”, finds abundant inspiration from Jasmin Hernandez’ “WE ARE HERE Visionaries of Color Transforming the Art World”. Jasmin Hernandez is the founder of Gallery Gurls, and continues to be an important force for women and bipoc representation in the contemporary art world. Much gratitude to Fabian Flores LatinX Publishing for putting this book on our radar! Check FFP out, for all the fab LatinX reads you can dream of, at www.fabianflorespublishing.com and @fabianflorespublishing. “WE ARE HERE”, available at www.abramsbooks.com.

Available online at jillmoser.net and at the Metropolitan Museum of Art NYC. We love flipping through these pages for a quick mood lift. It is quite literally a dose of juicy art therapy! Enjoy!
