The Huysman Gallery was an art gallery in Los Angeles, California that operated from December 1960 to summer 1961.[2][3][note 1] It was located at 740 North La Cienega Boulevard, across the street from the noted Ferus Gallery.[1][5] Curator Henry Hopkins,[6] who founded the gallery, named it after the French decadent novelist Joris-Karl Huysmans.[7] The gallery showcased the works of several young artists who later had great success, including Joe Goode, Ed Ruscha, and Larry Bell.[5]
