PROMOTION
LAUREN ELLIS, OWNER AT CK CONTEMPORARY GALLERY
Since 2013, CK Contemporary has offered the best in realism, abstraction and historic
estates. In a celebration of our commitment to San Francisco and Union Square, we are
thrilled to announce our beautifully renovated new location that boasts twice as much
exhibition space, allowing us to dramatically expand our programing.
Five years from now, what changes will your gallery experience?
We just relocated to an expansive and beautifully renovated new gallery, directly
on Union Square, which opens enormous possibilities for how we can curate our
collection. Our future is now exponentially more interesting.
What is your competitive edge?
We truly believe in building strong relationships with our clients above all else. When
you really get to know someone, finding the perfect art for them or their space
becomes intuitive.
What makes your work worthwhile?
An art gallery has a cultural obligation to its city. Doing what I do allows me to support
that mission as well as artists all over the world.
What part of your business drives you crazy?
Most galleries are intimidating places to walk into and can alienate the average collector.
We have always strived to create an inviting place for people to explore our collection.
