A selection from

The Estate of Rosa and Aaron Esman

Throughout their seventy-year marriage Rosa and Aaron Esman shared passion for the arts amassed into an exciting collection of Modern, Post-War, and Contemporary art. Rosa owned several art galleries including Tanglewood Gallery and Rosa Esman Gallery, and was a founding partner of Ubu Gallery. She was a pioneer print publisher of limited edition artworks while at Tanglewood Press, Original Editions, and Abrams Original Editions.

Dr. Aaron Esman was a lover of books, classical and jazz performances, and theater. He was deeply fascinated by the human mind as a psychiatrist and its connections to creativity and often wrote on the subject. Together the Esman’s built a rich collection of art influenced by their shared and individual passions full of Modernism, Dada, Russian Constructivism, and American Pop Art.
