			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The Gallery Gevik is focused on showing work from established artists that represent the Canadian art scene at its best. The gallery also displays important historical works to which the collection is gradually growing in size.</p>
<p>From the Gallery Gevik website &#8211; all credit Gallery Gevik:</p>
<p><em>Phillip Gevik, director of Gallery Gevik, has been a driving force in the Canadian Art scene since the opening of his Don Mills gallery, Gallery Phillip, in 1976. Since its inception, he has been an avid supporter of Inuit art and has assembled an outstanding collection of graphics and sculpture.</em></p>
<p><em>Our Focus</em></p>
<p><em>Gallery Gevik presents a variety of artists that range from high realism to lyrical abstraction. The single element that unifies the group is a commitment to quality and clarity of vision that happens to be geographically defined by the borders of Canada. Artists affiliated with the gallery are established names in the Canadian and International art scene.</em></p>
<p><em>A Commitment to the Future</em></p>
<p><em>The collecting of paintings, sculpture and prints is not usually a series of random acts. For most people acquiring a work of art is a thought process of aesthetic considerations. Although each piece of art is a statement by a given artist, an entire collection says much about the collector.</em></p>
<p><em>Gallery Gevik strives to meet your personal demands when building a collection of quality art. We wish to assist you in choosing works from our selection of mid-career and established artists that will complement your personal vision. Gallery Gevik is a member of the Art Dealers Association of Canada.</em></p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>The Rosenberg &amp; Stiebel Art Gallery in New York is unassuming from the outside but holds a lot of art treasures within, that will appeal to many an art connoisseur.</p>
<p>Best known for their expertise in 18th French art, this gallery actually focuses on high quality or &#8220;museum quality&#8221; art.  This family owned/run business draw on an understanding of the art market formed over 125 years in order to continue to uncover the best available art.</p>
<p>Now in the Cloisters, the most famous painting handled by the gallery was the Merode Altarpiece. This is a 15th-century work by the Flemish artist Robert Campin. More than 300 works have passed through Rosenberg and Stiebel Gallery into the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Cleveland Museum of Art have acquired over 100 pieces of work through the gallery and a painting of St. Catherine by Rubens, is now in the Toledo Museum, also via the gallery. The snippets of achievement alone show the respect the gallery holds.</p>
<p>Visits to the gallery are by appointment only, and the art for sale start at $5,000 (US Dollar), and run through to six, and occasionally seven figures. We would recommend this gallery to the collector who specialises in European art, and requires a strongly personalized service.</p>
<p>You can tell there is a true passion for art from the owner as he takes you through the history of the gallery on the website &#8211; all credit Rosenberg &amp; Stiebel Gallery:</p>
<p><em>My great-grandfather, Jacob Rosenbaum, founded the firm somewhere between 1860 and 1870 in Frankfurt am Main, Germany. He started dealing from his home, handling what was known as &#8220;Kleinkunst&#8221;, small works of art which included porcelain from the German factories as well as renaissance and medieval objects. His son Isaak Rosenbaum continued the business and moved to a shop on the Rossmarkt, the fashionable shopping street of Frankfurt. Isaak had no children so he took his nephews, Saemy Rosenberg, Hans and Eric Stiebel (the latter being my father) into the business.</em></p>
<p><em>By the turn of the century the firm had added old master paintings to the inventory and in the 1920&#8217;s my uncle Hans moved to Paris where he started dealing in French 18th century furniture and objets d&#8217;art.</em></p>
<p><em>When Hitler came to power I. Rosenbaum set up shop in Amsterdam, Saemy opened a place of business with his brother Raphael in London, and, in 1939, my father started the gallery in New York. After World War II started Saemy and Hans came to New York.</em></p>
<p><em>Over the years the firm developed access to many important collections, dealing with families such as the Rothschilds, who also originated in Frankfurt. After World War II many great European families wanted funds to rebuild their properties and their lives so the Rosenbergs and Stiebels often acted as agents bringing great works of art from Europe to the U.S.</em></p>
<p><em>The most famous painting we ever handled is the Merode Altar by Robert Campin. It was sold to pay for a family wedding. In order to acquire this masterpiece for the Cloisters the trustees of the Metropolitan Museum, contrary to their established policy, were obliged to comply with the terms of the Comte de Grunne and pay for the picture before it actually came to the United States.</em></p>
<p><em>When families like the Rothschilds sold, museums and collectors took full advantage of the opportunities afforded by these deaccessionings. Many of the acquisitions made by private collectors such as Jayne and Charles Wrightsman and J. Paul Getty were later donated to museums (the Wrightsmans to the Metropolitan and Getty to his own institution). In one instance, a pair of Fragonards, sold by the French Rothschilds, ended up as stellar pieces split between the Thyssen Collection, now in the museum in Madrid and the Toledo Museum of Art&#8230; no not the town near Madrid but rather the great mid-western museum in Ohio!</em></p>
<p><em>By the 1950&#8217;s dealers started to specialize but the Rosenbergs and Stiebels continued to enjoy dealing the old fashioned way, in many different areas, but always keeping to the highest standard of quality. They were therefore very proud of selling to museums or collectors who would donate or leave their collections to museums. Over 300 works of art from our gallery are in the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York and we sold over 100 works directly to the Cleveland Museum of Art.</em></p>
<p><em>My uncle died in 1964 and Saemy Rosenberg in 1970. A few years later I married an enthusiastic young curator, Penelope Hunter, who was in the Western European Arts Department at the Metropolitan Museum. After 13 years there and several as an independent curator and writer, during which time she translated Pierre Verlet&#8217;s standard work on French 18th Century Furniture, she finally joined my father and me at Rosenberg &amp; Stiebel!</em></p>
<p><em>Together we pursued the family tradition of giving meaning to the term &#8220;museum quality&#8221;. Though we are best known for our expertise in the arts of 18th century France, over 125 years of experience allow us to continue in a wide range of European Paintings, drawings, sculpture and decorative arts.</em></p>
<p><em>In 2000 everything changed.  Starting with a move to a town house from which to deal privately and the change of the corporate name to Stiebel, ltd.</em></p>
<p><em>After the success of the Stroganoff Exhibition, curated by my wife for the Portland Art Museum in Oregon, she returned to museum work full time (though long distance) as Portland’s Consulting Curator for European Art, based in New York.</em></p>
<p><em>My father having been a principal of the family firm for almost seventy years, and active until his last day, passed away that September.</em></p>
<p><em>Having been left on my own, I continue to be excited by finding &#8220;museum quality&#8221; treasures for clients we have known for generations, as well as new enthusiastic collectors, and I am enjoying welcoming them to our new home. </em></p>
