Hannah is co-owner of 12.26, a Dallas-based contemporary art gallery, with her sister Hilary Fagadau. Before starting 12.26, Hannah spent three years on the development team at Dallas Contemporary. She holds a MA in Arts Administration from Columbia University.
After receiving a BFA in Studio Art from the University of Texas, Hilary Fagadau worked in art book publishing for Artbook D.A.P. in New York City. Most recently, she was the director of a contemporary art gallery in Los Angeles.
Hannah, Hilary, and I discuss running a new gallery during a pandemic, balancing the love of art and profitability, and what it means to be a woman in the art space.
12.26 was featured in Artsy, D Magazine, and Dallas Morning News.
