Lazarides Still Closed, by fielder on Feb 16, 2009 21:38:35 GMT 1, Just looked at the Laz website. It says their London galleries are remaining closed until March while they continue their stocktake. The Newcastle gallery is closed until their next exhibition is ready (no details) and is not currently taking any orders. Is this normal practice or do you think they might be in trouble?

More likely there is no rush to do anything at the moment because the market is slow. Better to wait for it to pick up somewhat and do the housekeeping in the interval.

For us as a streetart gallery it is common practice to close for a few weeks after end of an exhibition has reached. This time off let us prepare new exhibitions and events. Also urban art is a young art movement which not allows to start an exhibition after the other.

Indeed. Prints manager also.

I guess that means Laz is getting a Starbucks next door then!
