Fisher Landau Center

The Fisher Landau Center was a contemporary art museum housed in a former industrial factory building in Long Island City, offering exhibition galleries across three floors. Inside, visitors could walk through spaces displaying works from artists working in painting, sculpture, and other media across several decades of modern creation.

The museum was established in 1991 by art collector Emily Fisher Landau as a way to share her growing collection with the public. Over its existence, it became known as a place where the history of postwar and contemporary artistic movements could be explored through works gathered over decades.

The center reflected the role of private collecting in shaping New York's contemporary art scene, with galleries that drew both art specialists and curious visitors exploring recent creative work. The space itself invited people to see how artists from different backgrounds approached similar questions about color, form, and meaning.

The building sat in an accessible neighborhood of Queens where visitors could arrive by subway or car, with parking options nearby. Before planning a visit, it was worth checking current information about access and hours, as this facility was no longer operating.

The conversion of the building from a parachute-harness factory to an art space was handled by Max Gordon, an English architect who had previously worked on major art collection projects in London. This industrial-to-gallery transformation created a distinctive setting where the raw character of the original factory remained visible within the modern exhibition design.
