In 1971 Strelow founded a gallery for abstract contemporary art. Strelow suggested important exhibitions in the Rhineland - u. a. 1984 the exhibition Von hier aus - Two months of new German art in Düsseldorf with contemporary art by 64 artists - and was a co-founder of the Art Forum Berlin . Strelow represents the artists Emil Schumacher , Frank Stella , Günther Uecker , Ulrich Erben and Imi Knoebel .
Since 1981 his gallery has made a total of 25 solo exhibitions on Emil Schumacher. Galerie Strelow showed Frank Stella in 2017, the seventh solo exhibition since the early 1970s. In 1980 she had her first solo exhibition in Germany with paintings by Willem de Kooning .
