Since my parents founded our gallery in 1976, they have curated and hosted more than 200 exhibitions and countless events in our German gallery. In the 25 years since I joined our family business I have curated more than 100 exhibitions in my own galleries, in corporations, institutions, museums and at art fairs. For years, we have noticed a change in how exhibitions are experienced and consumed by the public. We adjusted our strategy and concept accordingly, because even though we are staging many museum quality displays, we are not a museum. Our business model moved away from staging exhibitions to entertain and educate visitors and towards marketing our artists, placing their works into collections, public spaces or private homes and advising clients one-on-one in privacy.
We will continue to stage exhibitions (it's my ultimate passion), however, they will no longer have general opening hours or last for several weeks. We will continue to have fabulous opening events to give our collectors and prospective clients first choice and an opportunity to meet the artists. Openings are usually by invitation only, but if you are considering working with us, please drop us a line and we would be happy to send you an invitation to our next event. If you can't make it to opening night, we will keep the exhibition up for a few days before we deliver the sold items. If you are considering one of the artist's works for your collection you can make an appointment to see the whole display during the days following the opening. Individual works can be viewed all season long. These events are the best way to see the gallery without having to make an appointment.
Once you are ready to explore the possibilities, I invite you to a general introduction and a personal tour of our Village Court gallery or a introductory phone call (learn more). All consultations are without any obligation and always free of charge and whether you are looking for one special piece or have a large project, I encourage you to make an appointment or to schedule a call and I promise, you will not be disappointed. I strongly believe that as art dealers and advisers we cannot sell art, we can only introduce you to the artists we feel passionate about and hope that you will fall in love with them as we did. Once you become a client, you will have my direct number and you can always drop by at a moment's notice. If you are not quite ready but would like to learn more about us and get acquainted with what we do, you can always visit our El Paseo showroom without having to make an appointment. You can view a selection of our artists, learn more about what we do and purchase prime works right there. We always have some extraordinary works on display.
Again, I very much look forward to meeting you, to explore what we can do for you or to introduce you to our artists' works to consider for your home or collection.
Hope to meet you or to speak with you soon. Warm regards,
Christian Hohmann
PS: Below are some of the artists that we recently promoted and whose work you can still see at Village Court, most of them even with short notice.
