SAN FRANCISCO, CA.- Becky Koblick has joined Gallery Wendi Norris as Director. Koblick comes to the gallery from Altman Siegel, where she served as Managing Director for the last six years. She will start her tenure at Gallery Wendi Norris’ inaugural presentation at FOG Design+Art, January 21 - 25, 2026.
Under Koblick’s stewardship at Altman Siegel, the gallery attracted critical praise and institutional attention for its conceptually rigorous and uncompromising programming. She worked closely with Bay Area and international artists, from Trevor Paglen to Lynn Hershman Leeson, to develop thoughtful exhibitions within and beyond the gallery, advocated for their inclusion in major institutional exhibitions and biennials, and cultivated long-standing relationships with private collectors, museum directors, curators, trustees, and partner galleries worldwide.
Before joining Altman Siegel, Koblick held senior leadership roles at galleries and art fairs in San Francisco, Los Angeles, London, and Brussels, including Art Los Angeles Contemporary, Michael Benevento, MOT International, and Patrick Painter, Inc. She holds an MFA in curating from Goldsmiths, University of London, and a BFA from Otis College of art and design, and is actively engaged in the Bay Area arts community through board and committee service with the San Francisco Art Dealer Association, Headlands Center for the Arts, and Southern Exposure.
“I could not be more thrilled to welcome Becky to our team,” Wendi Norris remarked. “She shares the gallery’s and our artists’ values and commitment to thoughtful, challenging, and deeply resonant work. Her history of nurturing artists and forging meaningful relationships across the Bay Area and beyond makes her ideally positioned to connect our artists’ ambitious practices with collectors, institutions, and audiences.”
"I am honored to join Gallery Wendi Norris as Director, advancing a program of visionary artists whose boundary-crossing work summons insight and wonder across generations and continents," said Koblick.
