Allgemeine Informationen

Founded in 2002 by Jörg Heikhaus, heliumcowboy opened in a small space in Hamburg St. Pauli, supporting emerging artists with the ability to blow away boundaries and establish the future aesthetics of art.

Positioned closely to the development and evolutional cycles of young art, heliumcowboy has been aiding artists who are the mould of the art world. The aim was to establish a place to conceive, show and experience art that is made by and for people living in the here and now, and that can be considered authentic in their reflection of our society and selves.

Since the beginning, our motto (and ethos) derives from an old 70ies song: "A cowboy's work is never done". This in mind, we quickly expanded the gallery’s reach by showcasing artists from around the globe, organizing exhibitions abroad and in unusual places (like this one), and taking part in acclaimed art fairs in New York, Miami or Basel.

heliumcowboy tirelessly supports artists by giving them the space and opportunity to fully explore and showcase their talent. Jointly, we have been getting our hands and minds dirty, achieving a shared goal: to establish a new breed of artists within the field of probably the most contemporary form of fine art today.

Our most current selection of available artwork can be found on our website, and if you want keep updated on our next ventures, please subscribe to our newsletter at www.heliumcowboy.com
