History
Roberts Projects was founded in 1999 as Roberts & Tilton by partners Bennett Roberts, Julie Roberts and Jack Tilton in Los Angeles.[1] Following the passing of Jack Tilton (1951- 2017),[2] the gallery changed its name to Roberts Projects on January 1, 2018.[3]
Roberts & Tilton opened its first space in 2000 at the 6150 Wilshire gallery complex located in the Miracle Mile section of LA, a focal place for viewing art in the early 2000's. From 1986 to 1992 Bennett Roberts co-owned Richard/Bennett Gallery. [4]Julie Roberts started her career at Burnett Miller Gallery in 1990 and later worked in the secondary market before launching Roberts & Tilton. Since 2008, Roberts Projects has occupied a former coffee-roasting factory in Culver City.[5]
In August 2020, Roberts Projects was elected as a member of the Art Dealers Association of America.[6]
