The mausoleum minimalist PaceWildenstein on West 25th Street is old artist cooperatives. art collectors elite rub shoulders with the mechanical car while walking in the street. But despite this unusual relationship, after more than ten years of growth, the Chelsea neighborhood has more than 250 galleries from 13 west to the west of 29 Street and 10th Avenue to the West Side Highway in Manhattan, nearly twice the number of galleries in SoHo has been years 1990.
The migration to Chelsea is a massive event that New York has never happened before. All kinds of art galleries existing Chelsea in different stages of development. Its harvest is parallel realities galleries address different audiences and markets forefront of academics. With Art From as far away as India and near Williamsburg, Chelsea reflects on the world art market contemporary.
"Chelsea is now the main market for the art culture in New York," said Renee Vara, Associate Professor University of New York and professor at the Guggenheim Museum, where she teaches art history, art theory and museology, and is private independent curator and historian of art. "It offers improved efficiency and a separate enclave with a collective element and attractive."
Progress in Chelsea began in 1988 with the opening of the Dia Foundation, now Dia Center for the Arts. This set of cultural pioneer camp an area where the spaces are large and rents were cheap. In late 1994, Matthew Marks, a young merchant Upper East Side, West 22nd Street extended and began the art scene "party" to the new neighborhood.

The idea of Chelsea at the time was ripe when the art world was ready to break with old traditions SoHo. They found them at Chelsea.
As Chelsea dominated the art scene, "said Mary Boone another stage of his personal evolution as a provider through the establishment of a branch his large Chelsea gallery. Gluckman Mayner Architects created a spectacular Boone Gallery in Chelsea. Boone association with Richard Gluckman goes back to his days West Broadway. He also designed his gallery at 745 Fifth Avenue.

Does anyone know anything about paintings/art?
I bought a painting at a yard sale, it is an older painting. It is a marine/Sea Painting and it is signed P J Clause...I think. I can't tell if it is an actual painting, or a copy of a painting. Anyway any information would be helpful. Thanks.
That can by tough. As far as the artist goes, I know Butterfields in San Francisco does free evaluations once a month and so does Skinners in Boston. You can check on the Internet because they post the free to public dates to bring in your stuff for private evaluation. Art Work is very touchy stuff because thousands of unknown artists roam this world and never make a name for themselves. Chances are you have one and if you enjoy it, enjoy it if not sell it. You should be able to see brush strokes if the painting in is indeed real. Paper will appear to be very shinny in light. Acrylic and oil have a dull shine to it. Good luck.
