Kingston Gallery

I had some art to sell. These weren’t exactly Picassos, Pollocks, or Van Goghs, and never having sold artwork before, I thought that contacting as many local galleries as possible would be a good way to find a place that would be interested, or at least help point me in the right direction. Most galleries I contacted were friendly and helpful. Some were interested in seeing the works.
When I contacted the Kingston Gallery, a nameless representative tersely wrote back, «We are not that kind of gallery.»
I wrote back, «Thank you for letting me know!»
The nameless responder then had the audacity to write back, «Best always to do some research first.» Of course, me writing into the gallery in the first place WAS research. I wrote back, «Best also to not send snide responses!»
While the responder was bold enough to be scornful, I noticed that he/​she wasn’t brave enough to even sign his/​her messages. Regardless, knowing that such a nasty piece of work is employed at this place has inspired me to caution others against it. Artists seeking to exhibit their work would do well to find a friendlier place!
