How To Display Your Art Better

Than Most Galleries

Having your art poorly displayed is the same as

displaying your art in a windowless vault. It is my sad

opinion many galleries in the U.S. perform a

disservice to their artist and us by not giving more

care and attention to the details of lighting and

displaying the art they choose to represent.

A gallery with a sophisticated lighting system using

automatic dimmers may require expensive light bulbs

backed by an elaborate lighting system. This can be quite

expensive and you should inquire if the effect is one which

can only be achieved through this type of lighting.
