Di Donna Galleries is an American art gallery in New York City. It specializes in Modern and Surrealist art.[1]

The gallery was initially located on the second floor of The Carlyle Hotel at 981 Madison Avenue, New York City, the former home of Ursus Books.[2] In May 2016, the gallery moved a few blocks south to a new 6,000 square foot space at 744 Madison Avenue at East 64th Street. [3]

The gallery was founded in November 2010 and was formerly known as Blain Di Donna. A number of monographic, museum-quality exhibitions were staged there such as René Magritte, Dangerous Liaisons (2011);[4] André Masson, The Mythology of Desire: Masterworks from 1925 to 1945 (2012);[5] Jean Arp: A Collection of Wood Reliefs and Collages (2012),[6] Paul Delvaux (2013), in collaboration with the Paul Delvaux Foundation.[7][8]
