The Sub-Basement Artist Studios

To put it simply: We believe that every comfortable living space should hold an art collection, but without the demand that it match the décor. Art should exist for you, the collector, first… as a visual embodiment of your style and personal history. An art collection offers both exterior decoration as well as a documentary of life’s mental and emotional trapeze act. For this reason, we feel that art belongs to people more than places. We think that art is a form of expression for not only the artist, but the collector as well. It is important to us that the work you select for your art collection conveys a part of who you are. We want people to pause in a hallway, bedroom, office or living room when passing an artwork, and experience that singular and rare moment of beauty that can save a person and change his or her mood. We can help you build any variety of collection you want – whether it’s work by Baltimore’s most daring young artists or a collection of tribal artifacts, a new and compelling trend in postmodern painting and sculpture or simply the exuberance of an art period long since passed. Bottom-line: We’re concerned, instead, with finding outstanding art and matching it to those collectors who demand a certain kind of expression.
