Galerie Elena Lee to Close
Montreal's Galerie Elena Lee will close by the end of the year after 38 years in business. In a letter released 10-15-14, Elena and her staff announced that due to the high rents and expenses of keeping a physical gallery open, and because Elena is ready to retire, the gallery will no longer maintain a physical space but may continue to do occasional shows at other venues. The artwork in the gallery will remain until November 15 for purchase, after which consigned pieces will be returned to the artists. Work owned by the gallery and small pieces such as paperweights, perfumes and jewelry, will then be discounted 40%. There will be an open house on October 21 beginnning at 5 p.m. to celebrate the gallerie's 38 years of existence.
