Hello friends,

We hope you are having a relaxing holiday weekend!

As we make our way into September, we want to remind you to join us on Thursday, September 5, 5:30-7:30pm for the Art Walk. Also, with the popular demand for our Portfolio Review Service, we have decided to add more dates for September. The portfolio reviews are great for fine art photographers of any level.

In the upcoming weeks, we will be sharing new work by Modernbook Gallery artists! Scroll down to see a new series by Tom Chambers entitled, Animal Visions.

We look forward to your next visit,

Mark, Bryan, Danny, & Clara

Modernbook Gallery

We are very excited to announce our partnership with Amazon Art. Over the past few months Amazon has been very selective as to which galleries they wanted to partner with for this new platform.

At the launch of Amazon Art, NPR interviewed our gallery manager, Danny Sanchez, along with Peter Faricy, vice president of Amazon Marketplace; David Ross, former director of both the San Francisco Museum of Art and the Whitney Museum in New York; and Patricia Bransten, the director of Rena Bransten Art for their perspectives on this new platform.
