Since opening the doors of D. Colabella Fine Art at 446 Main Street in 2021, Dee Dee Colabella has been on a mission: to elevate the voices of emerging and mid-career artists and bring their work directly to collectors across the country. After four dynamic years of exhibitions, community engagement, and artistic growth, the brick-and-mortar gallery will officially close its Ridgefield location this winter—marking the beginning of an exciting new chapter.
“The goal was never just to hang art on walls,” says Founder and Curator Dee Dee Colabella. “It was to move the needle forward for artists—to take their work beyond the gallery and into spaces where it can spark conversation, connection, and collection.”
The next chapter includes the launch of a mobile gallery—a fully transportable exhibition space that will bring curated collections of work directly to collectors. This innovative approach enables D. Colabella Fine Art to meet collectors where they are, creating immersive art experiences in unexpected locations while providing artists with the visibility they deserve.
Currently in the D. Colabella Gallery is the final show, Color Intensive, which runs through January 11th. After that is the Scottsdale Art Week and the Meacum Auctions in Glendale, Arizona, which will be the inaugural use of the mobile gallery.
Colabella adds, “I’m endlessly grateful to the Ridgefield community, to the collectors who have supported us, and to everyone who walked through our gallery doors. You helped us grow to this point. You believed in the artists and in our mission. Now, we invite you to follow us on our social channels and on Artsy.net to stay up to date with our latest shows and new works.”
While the physical gallery at 446 Main Street closes, viewing appointments are still available at the RPAC Art Center located at 410 Main Street in Ridgefield, where select works from the D. Colabella roster can be viewed upon request. •
