Photo: Selections from Death Unto Our Enemies, June 5 - September 25, 2009

1975 is a mobile gallery living in a semi-permanent space within SURFACE salon in the South Wedge neighborhood in Rochester, NY. We are dedicated to exposing talented artists to a community that might otherwise overlook them and facilitating the would-be collector. 1975 is born of a labor of love. As with all great love, it needs to be shared.

Building on over 14 years of art collecting experience, owner/curator Erich Lehman started 1975 as a means of sharing his love of art and helping others learn how to build their own collections while exposing the countless gifted artists he has become friends with over the years to an audience that might otherwise not encounter them. 1975 was also conceived as a potentially mobile gallery, and as it moves into its second year, plans are underway for shows in alternate locations in addition to its homebase at SURFACE salon.

Partnering with Lee Gray, owner of SURFACE salon, in September of 2008, 1975 Gallery at Surface Salon held it's first opening on October 2, 2008.

1975 Gallery at Surface Salon is currently accepting show proposals for the 2009-2010 calendar.
