As New York began to rebuild from September 11, 2001 and move into the 21st century, a new wave of younger people became successful art dealers. Scott Zieher and Andrea Smith (now, Andrea Zieher) opened ZieherSmith in 2003 and helped lead the way… — Julie Chae, The Huffington Post
ZieherSmith is a contemporary art gallery located in Nashville, Tennessee. The gallery was first established in 2003 in New York City’s Chelsea art district. In 2019, we relocated to Nashville, and in 2025 we opened a newly renovated gallery space near Music Row and the Gulch that was named “Best New Gallery” by The Nashville Scene.
Pulitzer Prize winning art writer Jerry Saltz selected ZieherSmith as one of his top 25 new NYC galleries in New York Magazine, leading critic Roberta Smith named the gallery among the top Chelsea galleries in The New York Times, and Art in America including ZieherSmith in its annual listing of top 500 art galleries worldwide. We have placed work in some of the world’s top museum collections, including the Whitney Museum of American Art and the Metropolitan Museum of Art. In addition to our regular programming, we facilitate secondary market sales and offer art advising services.
When ZieherSmith opened its doors earlier this year, my expectations were high. When Andrea and Scott Zieher lived in New York, their gallery was a long-running fixture in Chelsea, and their frequent trips back to Andrea’s hometown of Nashville often intersected with pop-up exhibitions that were both fun and relevant. Still, the Edgehill-area gallery space exceeded my expectations. The inaugural event was a blockbuster two-person exhibition of Nashville-based artists Raheleh Filsoofi and Vadis Turner, and it showed that locally curated and cultivated art shows in Nashville can be just as dynamic, thoughtful and meaningful as they would be in any city. Add to that an ambitious gallery roster and a cute storefront area and you’ve got all the makings of a community-building art space. - Laura Huston Hunter, The Nashville Scene, October 2025.
The gallery includes includes The National Life, an art concept shop and is located in a storefront space in the AMEC building at 1207 King Hollands Ave in Nashville’s Edgehill neighborhood. We are steps from the Gulch and Music Row with free easy parking. Our street was recently renamed and your GPS might prefer 1207 South St as a prompt.
There is street parking in front of the gallery, as well as a parking lot in the rear of the building off 13th Ave S. We are the central storefront location in this building, next to the AMEC chapel and headquarters.
