Please go to our new link for Bruno Marina Gallery
Just down from Rico on Atlantic Avenue, is the Bruno Marina Gallery, a sort of sister shop to the hip style that is Rico furnishings.
We recently slipped into the gallery and saw these lovely, bold prints by Stephen Westfall that were selling for prices ranging from @ $800 to $1500.
It seems that Rico runs this gallery as well, which is a good thing, as he's got great style, and it never hurts to have an interior designer choose the artwork (some galleries are just too far out there).
While info on the gallery is scarce, it represents a small group of artists, shows everything from photography, to prints, to painting, to sculpture, and seems to avoid the over the top pricing of NYC galleries.
Those Westfall prints are published by the Durham Press, which is a great printer (in Bucks County I believe). More examples of Westfall's work (and other artists) are available on their website (www.durhampress.com, I believe).
Thanks for the listing and affirming comments. The Westfall new works on paper is at the Bruno Marina Gallery, not Bruno Maria. Just for the record, although I am adept at designing interiors I'm not an interior designer. I have a fine arts degree from RISD and have been an sculptor & architectural designer most of my career.
My store Rico and Gallery, Bruno Marina is a roundup of a lifelong involvement with art, lighting, furniture and decor as a means of defining and expressing living and working spaces.
Our programs are well represented in our showrooms and websites; shoprico.com and brunomarinagallery.com
FYI / here is a link to a very current ARTNET/ Westfall review in Stephen Maine's Dateline Brooklyn.
