WHEN THE GALLERIST Ellie Rines wants to show work in storage to collectors, all she has to do is head up to her bed. “You start to fall down really slowly, then it happens really fast,” she says, recounting one of her tumbles. She now pays $3,350 a month for 56 Henry, where she uses her shower as an improvised storage unit. Rines supplements her gallery’s income with a job as the director of Ceysson & Bénétière, a blue-chip gallery on the Upper East Side. Less financially secure artists and galleries found themselves pushed farther out from Manhattan, to Brooklyn and, in many cases, beyond.
