Arcadia Contemporary

I contacted this gallery to enquire about a painting which was advertised as available on artsy and put an offer with my card details, only to be told it was sold, but they didn’t update the website. I suggested they might want to update it and I received an arrogant, unpleasant and almost insulting reply from someone named Steve. I collect all sort of surrealist art and I have never been treated like this by a Gallery. Avoid!

Amazing artwork! One of the best places to see contemporary realism. The staff was friendly, and was happy to ask any questions. Highly recommend!

This is probably my favorite gallery in city. Great contemporary realist art. In the days of paint splatters and fuzzy squares as art, the brilliant work here shines bright. And they all have a real contemporary feel.

Awesome works, and I'm so glad they re-opened! It was great to check this off the "To do list" visiting NYC. Revisited in the summer of 2023, and the experience was outstanding again...works by some of the greatest artists around the world on display for everyone to see.

Amazing collection of artists I have long followed and admired. The curator here must be amazing because each work I viewed was absolutely stunning.

Loved this gallery!! I have followed them on Instagram for a while, because I am a huge fan of realist art. The gallery did not disappoint, with a decently large selection of paintings on view to merit a visit on my trip to LA. And the owner was very friendly and informative (and I did not look like I was about to buy an expensive painting - I had on workout pants and a t-shirt). He explained that they focus on contemporary living artists who are not only competent artists but also have their own unique style. It really shows. You may not like all of the art you see, but that's because it doesn't all blend into the mess of other artists out there. He also suggested that I check out the Norton Simon Museum. I took his advice and was so happy I did!! The only downside to this gallery is that right now (Jan 2018) parking can be a little tough due to construction, but it's simply worth it if you like contemporary realist art. You will not find modern art here, either, just FYI.

Beautiful gallery. Not very big but they bring in the most important contemporary living realist artists. If you want to see great representational art, it doesn't get better than this gallery. I've never been to a show at this gallery where I didn't come out wishing I could buy one of the art pieces there. Nicely done.

We came here to see Jeremy Lipkin's solo show. While Lipkin is an outstanding artist demanding high prices for his works the gallery staff is far from being outstanding. While inside the gallery the staff member made no contact, no greetings and to make matters worse we were asked to leave because they decided to close one hour early. We made a point to come to this particular show and planned our day according to the operating hours of the gallery. We ended up going to early dinner instead. The gist of it is if you don't look rich and don't look like you will buy a painting, they don't bother with you.
