The Chassidic Art Institute (also known as the CHAI Art Galley) was established in 1977 after the massive response to the six-week exhibit, Chassidic Artists in Brooklyn, at the Brooklyn Museum. In the 46 years of our existence we have represented and helped develop the careers of hundreds of talented Jewish artists around the world. It is our mission to help promote these artists, whose works provide an enduring link to the history and experience of the Jewish people.

​

Some of the accomplishments of the Chassidic Art Institute include:

​

• Many short-term traveling group exhibitions around the world, with the most recent being a major art show at the Boca Raton Museum of Art for three months in 2014-2015.

• Four art books published on the art of Zalman Kleinman, Chenoch Leiberman, Samuel Rothbort and Michael Gleizer.

• Fostering the increased exposure of Jewish art to a wider audience.  We are proud to have some of of the artists whom we represent sell at institutions such as Sotheby’s and Christie’s.
