Martin Lawrence Galleries Los Angeles
This Los Angeles gallery is part of the larger group – featuring 11 galleries distributed throughout mainland US, and one in Hawaii. A blue chip gallery as it were, which of course leads to a major benefit of being able to provide a wide selection of art.
The gallery has a collection that would make any art lover envious, and you might conclude that this makes the gallery inappropriate for the average visitor. There is some truth in that: few have the requisite funds for a Picasso, Chagall, or Warhol. However, this does not mean that the staff at the gallery are aloof – or, let’s get to the point – snobby. The result is a credit to the gallery: talking about art is clearly not just about making a sale. By extension, it seems to me that making loans to institutions is not just about the resulting publicity. Instead, you get the feeling that the people involved are primarily interested in the art itself.
We recommend that anyone considering a visit to this gallery takes a look at the galleries website as a next step.
An extract from the galleries website – all credit Martin Lawrence Galleries:
What does an art dealer have to stand on other than the quality of the artwork represented and ultimately, the value of his/her reputation? With an unprecedented collection of exceptional artwork— each of which is owned by our company—including the largest collection of Warhol, Picasso, Chagall, Francis and Haring—and as the publisher and representative for Erté, Kondakova, Hallam, Lalonde, Bertho and Ricker—we at Martin Lawrence Galleries certainly value the trust you place in us and take our responsibility to preserve and enforce our reputation seriously. In the last 15 years, we have lent nearly 250 different artworks by 16 different artists to 32 different museums around the world. This includes the loan of works by: Picasso, Chagall, Magritte, Calder, Warhol, Francis and many other artists…
