Galleries that maintain a permanent collection

[Kirk Gittings]

are to trying to set a new world record for work in public collections?

[Drew Wiley]

Probably half the galleries I've ever dealt with began as private collectors. Beyond that, most in that particular category were independently wealthy and probably never actually made money on the gallery itself. Nor did they tend to do a very good job for their featured artists. ... not that their intentions were bad. But when
you don't have to turn a profit, and are just looking for a tax write-off, the incentive level isn't that high. But storing a lot of prints is expensive enough in its own
right. That's a job for museums, who have their own funding problems. Oh well ... I better get of my arse and start selling again, or I won't have anywhere to store
my own prints.

the people at light work (org) have a permanent collection. they also run a gallery without sales.
they do hold work from a large number of artists, many of whom will never be collectible. They tend to regard themselves as 'regional' ---

they may be able to offer other help.

Thanks!

Maybe I clicked on a different site, all I saw was some incredible bw street and interior portraits.

not sure I saw any HDR.

Thanks!

no problem… the original founders of LW have long since moved on… one heads the ICP events or such program. the other owns a mexican restaurant, actually 2 restaurants…


if it tastes good, it goes boom twice…
