The Gallery
Greg Kucera, (owner, Greg Kucera Gallery), Larry Yocom (owner, Gallery Frames) and Jena Scott are pleased to offer Seattle's only gallery devoted to the resale of fine art. We will celebrate our Fifth Anniversary in October 2011. Seattle ArtREsource is a business venture combining fine art, antiques and some curious items that are more difficult to classify. For the most part, we look for paintings, works on paper, prints, photographs, and sculptures that are easily portable and are by artists with familiar Northwest names (Guy Anderson, Kenneth Callahan, Michael Dailey, Joseph Goldberg, Morris Graves, Gaylen Hansen, Paul Horiuchi, William Ivey, Fay Jones, Robert Motherwell, Alden Mason, Peter Millett, Jeffry Mitchell, Frank Okada, Michael Spafford, Jay Steensma, Mark Tobey, George Tsutakawa, James Washington, Jr., Darren Waterston, Wes Wehr, etc).
Jena Scott is the one behind the desk who does it all. She brings her terrific management experience, art knowledge, technological savvy, digital and internet skills, Northwest history, and delightful personality to the business. Jena was the lead employee and web mistress for the Greg Kucera Gallery from 1993 - 2005. We were pleased when she agreed to join us in this venture when we opened October 2006. We try to make good use of her skills and the internet in marketing the artworks at Seattle ArtREsource. Stop by to meet Jena and her official (and very friendly) greeter Milo, a Queensland Heeler (below). Dogs are very welcome in our gallery if potty-trained and well-mannered.
The Mission
We believe that art collecting requires change as one's choices are constantly shifting and re-shaping. And we know collecting is serendipitous enough that one should always be open to new opportunities and be aware of what's available. In the spirit of providing new prospects to both buyers and sellers, we are opening this new gallery.
Seattle ArtREsource is a resale gallery devoted to helping experienced collectors re-sell artworks and helping new collectors enter the market at attractive prices. Additionally, we will work with corporate collections, art advisors, interior designers and non-profits in selling, and hopefully buying, art work.
The Statistics
Seattle ArtREsource is located in Pioneer Square at 625 First Avenue at Cherry Street. The gallery occupies a 2,500 square foot space, built out with both 9 foot tall sheetrock walls and some exposed brick walls. The space is positioned directly above the Gallery Frames storefront on the second level.
The Goods
We have attracted artworks by artists of this region, nationally recognized artists, sculpture, paintings, prints, studio glass and pottery, and interesting objet d'art of all kinds.
If you question whether or not we would be interested in the work you want to release, some answers may be included in our FAQ page. PLEASE SAVE TIME AND READ THIS FAQ PAGE! Also, to get a feel for the type of work we are looking to consign, take a look at the artists in our current inventory here: Inventory.
The Pitch
If you have material you'd like us to consider, we first ask that you FIRST read the FAQ page. If you still feel your item fits our guidelines, and is not a more "commercial" type of work, please send digital images and relevant information such as date, size, media and price to us: submission. WE CANNOT ACCEPT WALK-INS OR SUBMISSIONS WITHOUT IMAGES.
Due to the large number of emails we are currently receiving, please note that there may be a delay in response.
