WINNIPEG — Winnipeg art gallery owner Ken Segal says he will close his shop on Osborne Street South this Saturday.
To clear the space, he has announced a 30-per-cent-off sale on all artwork he has on hand from Tueday to Saturday.
The Ken Segal Gallery opened at 531 Osborne St. next to Burton Lysecki Books in January 2009 after almost 25 years on River Avenue, where the business started as a poster and framing shop.
In recent years, Segal has exhibited the work of numerous respected Winnipeg artists, among them Bill Pura, Ewa Tarsia and Keith Wood.
Wood, meanwhile, and fellow artist Douglas Smith had been investigating the possibility of opening an artists’ co-operative gallery in Segal’s 1,000 square-foot space, which is owned by bookstore owner Burton Lysecki.
After a Free Press report on his initiative a few weeks ago, Wood says he received inquiries both from artists and other landlords.
Nothing has been confirmed.
Segal says he will continue to operate as a private dealer and framer. He will be open from 11 a.m. to 6 p.m. this week to facilitate his clearance sale.
