Andrew Chasen; Andrew has been collecting art since he was 10 years old. Encouraged by his mother, he began a small collection that he still enjoys all these years later. Of course, the collection has grown over the years. 

In 1983 he began selling posters out of his car on Saturdays to galleries in the Metro NJ area. In 1987 he opened a showroom where designers, gallerists, and art consultants could borrow artwork to show their clients. In 1994 he opened his first retail gallery in Sarasota, Florida. Another gallery followed in 1999 in Richmond, Virginia.

In 2017, Andrew returned to the vibrant art and glass market in Sarasota, Florida, where he currently has two highly regarded fine art and glass galleries.

James LaMantia;  James' career in the fine art world started as a young man as he was inspired by his family which was made up of artists and musicians. James graduated from SUNY New Paltz with a BFA in Painting. While exhibiting his work in both New York and Long Island, he was the Gallery Director for a Madison Avenue Art Gallery in Manhattan for 5 years. 

He has had articles published and has been regularly quoted in trade magazines. While self-employed as a gallerist for 34 years, James is also involved in many community projects and is most proud of being a Director for Gift of Life Florida and the Past President of the Northport Rotary Club, NY, twice.
