The Thelma Harris Art Gallery has been presenting museum-quality
exhibitions and helping its clients to build impressive
art collections for
over two decades. Specializing in works by contemporary
African American
artists, the gallery in 2005, marks its fifteenth year as
a venue for emerging,
mid-career and established painters, sculptors and mixed
media artists.
With featured contemporary artists that include Claude Clark,
Jonathan
Green, Artis Lane and Ed Dwight, the gallery handles works
by such
Harlem Renaissance masters as Palmer Hayden and Aaron Douglas,
and is
the exclusive agent for the estate of William Tolliver.
Each year, the gallery assembles about ten special exhibitions
that explore contemporary themes, or examine the work of
individual artists. Its welledited inventory – with
figurative, abstract, landscape, still life, portraiture
and mixed media works—offers clients a continual source
of high-quality art on view.
The philosophy of the gallery is personal for its founder,
Thelma Harris. From her earliest days as a private dealer,
Harris has been actively involved in supporting and promoting
those artists whose work she believes in. To her credit
and theirs, these artists’ works have steadily appreciated
in value.
Well known for the individual attention and personal service
it provides, the gallery serves both seasoned and first-time
collectors. It works closely with clients to help conceptualize
and build specific collections or acquire a particular work
of art. Thelma maintains a close relationship with clients
as their collections develop and expand.
A wide range of expertise in acquisition, curatorial and
appraisal services, framing, conservation, lighting and
client education have secured the gallery an impressive
clientele of private collectors. Regardless of the level
of investment or the extent of one’s collection, clients
find that the broad selection of art and the attention to
personal service make for a memorable experience with the
Thelma Harris Art Gallery.
