The Gallery
Selling art in Calgary for several years, one might think that Kensington Fine Art Gallery would have perhaps exhausted the available market. Au contraire! As the gallery owners contend, there is a large group of young, up-and-coming art collectors, a (as yet) largely untapped group of buyers. Located in the Design District of Gallery Row, this is one gallery that you’ll surely want to check out.
The Art
Though you may not have the necessary funds, knowledge or display areas ready yet, that doesn't mean that you can't start developing your own tastes in art (and possibly some wish-lists at the same time) by visiting galleries, such as this one. Kensington Fine Art Gallery stocks a range of 20th Century Canadian landscape art — from conventional and impressionistic kinds of representation to more innovative and challenging approaches. Abstract, realism, historic, figurative and landscapes – each painting is more beautiful than the next. Face it, while you may be too young to buy, you're never too old to place dibs.
