Janis Gardner Cecil, President, JGC Fine Art, New York, is an art advisor, curator, and art historian with over 25 years of experience as a gallerist and dealer in the primary and secondary art markets. Cecil's relationships with private collectors, corporations, and institutions draw upon her in-depth knowledge and experience with international impressionist, modern, postwar, and contemporary art.
Cecil educates new collectors on all aspects of the international art market including galleries, art fairs, and auctions. Collecting begins by looking, so she commences each relationship by learning the client's unique history to form an understanding of their visual life. Cecil discusses and refines collection goals and reviews sites for art in the domestic, work, and hybrid environments.
Cecil actively engages with established collectors on both sales and acquisitions. Activities include placement of works in the best avenue for resale (private sale, gallery or at auction) and discreet sourcing of important works for purchase.
JGC Fine Art is pleased to present the online exhibition, A Gift from Basquiat: Harry’s ABC of Mixing Cocktails, which illuminates a little-known friendship between groundbreaking artist Jean-Michel Basquiat (1960-1988), one of the most important creative talents of the 20th century, and self-taught musician Randy Gun, a fixture of Manhattan’s downtown new music scene of the 1970s and 1980s.
