Momenta Art is a not-for-profit exhibition space whose mission is to promote the work of emerging artists through two person shows, allowing artists separate project rooms and the distinct opportunity to present a substantial body of work. For most of these artists, this is their first opportunity to exhibit in New York outside of a group show. For each exhibition we publish a newsletter which lists other local galleries while providing further information about  the work exhibited in our project rooms. This newsletter also contains a map of art spaces in the area, so for those unfamiliar with Williamsburg, Momenta is an excellent first stop in Brooklyn.
