Tour Greg Kucera Gallery - one of best art galleries in Seattle!

INTRO
The folks at the very well regarded Greg Kucera Gallery have agreed to give us a private tour of their gallery and I am very excited. I have been to this gallery twice and was impressed with the quality of the artwork, as well as the friendliness of the staff. This is one of the top art galleries in Seattle, so I am thrilled they have agreed to host us and offer a tour!

There is a great article about Greg Kucera, the founder, in Seattle Times. A link to the entire article is below, with the first few paragraphs of the article copied below.

When Greg Kucera opened his Pioneer Square gallery in October 1983, it cost $350 in rent and received the briefest of mentions in a Seattle Times calendar entry: “Greg Kucera, best known as an artist, last night opened the doors of the Greg Kucera Gallery at 608 Second Ave.”
He wouldn’t be “best known” as an artist for long. “I knew I would never make art again,” he said earlier this October, almost exactly 38 years after Greg Kucera Gallery’s first exhibition. “And I haven’t.”
Instead, through a combination of hard work, shrewd choices, good luck and some courage, Kucera built his gallery into a leading force in the Seattle art world, playing advocate and broker for a suite of early-, mid- and late-career artists. Now, hundreds of exhibitions later, he’s leaving the city and moving to France — a castle in southern France, to be specific, which he purchased with his partner and a very good friend in 2020. The gallery will remain, carrying Kucera’s name but under the care of longtime employee Jim Wilcox and his wife, Carol Clifford, who are purchasing the enterprise. (Kucera, now 65, will remain co-director for some unspecified years and expects to slowly decrease his involvement over time.)
