Park West Gallery Supports Community, Artists and Philanthropic Endeavors
Southfield, Michigan, February 23, 2015 (Newswire.com) - For years, Park West Gallery has been synonymous with fine art collecting locally, nationally and internationally. As a leader in the industry, Park West Gallery hosts live art auctions on a variety of platforms including luxury cruise ships, in metropolitan cities across the world, and at the company’s gallery locations in Michigan and Florida. However, providing customers with a unique art collecting experience and connecting people with fine art isn’t the only passion that Park West Gallery follows.
Much more than a mere art gallery and auction company, Park West Gallery prides itself on being a hub for inspiring artists, an environment that fosters the next generation of artists, a philanthropic powerhouse that supports not only its own Park West Foundation but many other charities across the world, and a leader in educating youth about artistic expression and practice.
Park West Gallery artist Yaakov Agam was recently named to the Algemeiner Journal’s list of "Top 100 people positively influencing Jewish life.” Since 1978, Park West Gallery has been Agam’s exclusive art dealer and has helped bring his artwork to collections all over the world.
When it comes to the next generation of artists, Park West Gallery embraces talented young artists who are in the process of making a name for themselves. Recently, in a premiere event open to the public, Park West Gallery hosted an exhibition of the works of 13-year-old art prodigy, Autumn de Forest, at the Ritz-Carlton in Boston.
Park West Gallery also shows its support for local artists by being involved in art competitions, such as the 2014 MI Great Artist Online Competition in December. As part of the competition, finalists’ artwork was displayed at the Park West Gallery Michigan location.
The Park West Foundation has donated extensive collections of art and art books to many prestigious universities and educational institutions. Through their generosity, students, faculty, staff and visitors can discover the arts through the rich portrayals of artists from around the world. At the heart of the foundation is the mission to help support youth, who are aging out of foster care within their communities.
Passion for the arts run deep at Park West Gallery and is shown in every aspect of work that the company is involved in, whether it be art auctions or community involvement, that passion never waivers.
