In its ethereal brilliance and reflection of life itself, art appreciates, making it superb for invesment as well as permanent adoration.
That being said, I am personally honored to be an art dealer, surrounded by the wondrous artistry of Maestro Kenneth Hari. I am astounded by his visions as well as the list of legendary faces that Maestro Hari has painted during his 40+ year tenure. Aside from those pictured on this page, he has also painted the likes of Greta Garbo, Orson Wells, Groucho Marx, Angelica Huston, Ginger Rogers, Harry Reasoner and many others that have made a lasting and notable impact on our history.

A distinguished sentiment, Kenneth Hari believes in the tradition of portraiture to preserve and record people who have contributed to Mankind, whether it be in the world of Science, Entertainment, Art, Business, etc. The notable poet W. H. Auden wrote of Kenneth Hari:
"Your portraits should serve as a unification of Man, not as decorative ornaments. Continue your portrait work; it is excellent."
A brilliant sculptor as well, his masterpieces are represented in more than 300 private and public collections, including the Vatican; Lincoln Center for the Performing Arts; the Museum of Modern Art (which has his R. Buckmister Fuller portrait); the Grand Ole Opry House in Nashville, TN; the Museum of Modern Art; Barcelona, Spain; the National Gallery, Sophia, Bulgaria; the National Portrait Gallery, London, England as well as numerous business institutions, university and private collections.
I am further humbled to be working with Maestro Hari on a Renaissance of sorts, a tribute to a master of all time, Sir William Shakespeare. More to come...
