Because Art is Essential
With a focus on unique and exceptional contemporary art Kenise Barnes Fine Art represents more than 50 emerging and mid-career artists working in all media. We have a wide selection of paintings, drawings, photography and sculpture as well as consulting services and collecting advice for the burgeoning to the seasoned collector. In addition to our curated exhibitions that change every six weeks we maintain a large inventory of work from our artists’ studios in our on-site warehouses. As a professional art consulting firm, we also source work from our wide network of artist’s studios, galleries, and auction houses. We work extensively with architects, interior designers, art advisors and home owners to find the perfect fit whether it is an entire collection or one special piece.
Kenise Barnes Fine Art has two locations; in May 2019 we opened in the stunning Kent Barns complex in Kent, CT. The first gallery continues in our street-level gallery in the charming village of Larchmont, New York, 25 minutes from New York City on Metro-North where we have been located for 25 years.
