Find Art Galleries

Visiting galleries is a great way to get exposure to artwork that you won't see in a museum. Galleries often feature newer artists, so following current shows keeps your perspective fresh and heightens your awareness of trends in the art market. Or if you're a serious collector, a broad knowledge of galleries can enhance your expertise and increase your chances of finding the pieces you desire.

Dulcinea's Insight

  • The sites featured in this section will help you locate a gallery that you intend to visit physically. For online purchases, check out the "Buy and Sell Art Online" section of this guide.
  • Also check the Art Magazines and News section to see information about gallery activity. Often a publication will feature a gallery, exhibition, or artist whose popularity is ascending.
