Information for Interested Artists

The Artist’s Gallery at the Görtz Haus consults with each artist to select those pieces that will most likely capture the greatest interest from the buying public.

The participating artist offers their selected work for public sale under individual consignment agreements with the Görtz Haus Gallery.

There are no additional marketing and sales expenses charged to the artist beyond the contracted commission rate.

 

The Artist’s Gallery at the Görtz Haus is truly a venue for local and regional artists. This is where you can find uniquely original works of fine art. We cordially invite you to visit other galleries for the predictably familiar art being published in mass.

  • Original Paintings
