I highly recommend this gallery, and always look forward to seeing their new exhibits. Wally represents some of the areas best and most creative artists, and she and her staff are always personable and helpful with information about the art. Intimate and welcoming as well as home to some of the best artists Austin has to offer. No small feat in an art-loving city like Austin, the gallery is built into an old house and offers cozy vignettes featuring small numbers of works in each room. This two-story gallery boasts some of the most beautiful fine art in town, and theres even a separate photography gallery attached. The art is always interesting, the crowd is often diverse, and the food is delicious (if you can grab some before its gone). I usually attend at least a couple art shows a week, and Wally Workmans exhibition openings are among my favorites.
She was helpful in providing me, a novice, a better understanding of their gallery and the fine art world in general. Apparently, she was out with an appendectomy and recovery took longer than expected. I liked it but the inexperienced staff was not helpful, and the owner (Wally) never got back to me despite leaving contact information.Įdit: Upgrading my review after the gallerist reached out to me via telephone.
Stopped by to check out their art collection. Does anyone actually buy art here? I sure wont. Why would an artist rely on representation that only damages their reputation? Many reviews compliment the building and the curating. Ive tried DESPERATELY over the past week to buy a work from an artist I like, and the ladies here couldnt do MORE to drive my business away. I buy from galleries nationwide, and this is absolutely the worst. I go to many art opening receptions and Workman seems to pride themselves on providing their patrons with an exceptional art experience. There are enough seats in each viewing room to sit back, relax and take it all in. The staff is welcoming, the space is airy and uncomplicated and contains a diverse selection of art. Last Friday evening marked my first visit to Wally Workman for an opening reception and I can see exactly why this established gallery has been providing art to the Austin area for so many years.
