San Francisco, CA How to Find an Art Gallery or Dealer
Maybe you need a still life to go in the dining room. You could spend hours going to stores, trying to find the right combination of pear, apple, and flowerpot you need in a painting, or you could go to one San Francisco, CA art dealer. Most likely, the dealer will have that pear-apple-flowerpot combo you need, or, at the very least, he or she will know exactly where to find it.
You do need to be careful, however, when dealing with art dealers. Only contact one with a strong reputation. Once, I took a piece of art I needed sold to a pawn shop, who said they could sell my painting. After a few months, they called me and told me to take it back, because it wasn’t selling. They duped me, though. The painting I got back was similar, but not exactly the same. The dogs were different breeds, the hands they were holding were slightly different, and at the bottom of the page print, it said “printed in Canada.” It was most definitely an American print when I had dropped it off! I should have taken it to a San Francisco, CA art dealer.
You may find that there are many people who want to sell you art. But the gentleman in a trenchcoat working out of a back alley may not be the best place to buy paintings or sculpture. That can be pretty intimidating.
It is the duty of San Francisco, CA art galleries and dealers to build relationships with collectors and museums whose taste, collections, and interests are most likely to match the work of the represented artists.
