Lazarides Gallery..opinions please!, by top on Jan 8, 2008 21:22:53 GMT 1, Doing some basic research and would like forum members opinions please! 
This is not meant to be detrimental or abusive..so keep it clean! 
How would you describe the customer service, and over all aesthetic philosophy/vision of the gallery?
Does Laz have an ethos?
If you'd rather not post comments on here, please pm me in the strictest confidence

I've spent time in there chatting to the guy in there. He's always had time for me and has always really been interested in chatting. He's never been rude.
I've brought books off him and feel he couldn't help enough.
Even my girlriend likes them - and she's a fucking misery!!!!

Lazarides Gallery..opinions please!, by seidbereit on Jan 9, 2008 13:12:53 GMT 1, I've never been to the gallery in person so can't comment on most of the points you're interested in but Stephanne (sp?) in London was extremely friendly and helpful when I was purchasing some stuff last year. I'm always impressed by people who go an extra yard to help out with something off their own bat and S. certainly stood out as one of them for me last year.
I'm sure Newcastle is the same but I've not yet had any dealings with them.

Lazarides Gallery..opinions please!, by top on Jan 9, 2008 14:03:24 GMT 1, I would post the PM except its a bit long and would bore you to death!
..here is an excerpt..
Hi vazie,
glad someone has asked to be honest,as I would want to know personally too!
I only recently bought my first piece in November last year and have been enthused about it and art generally ever since. My friend has a vinyl fetish (toyz that is! ;D Kaws etc) and thus naturally progressed to bigger and brighter things and both he and I dug around searching for what we liked-great fun. I'm really dumbfounded by what quality art is out there, things that can fill up spaces inside(you know what I mean!?) and can swing emotions, inspire..the list goes on, and to my knowledge so far is not exhaustive!
I personally have never bought anything from Lazarides, but have read numerous threads and articles which mention the Galleries both positively and negatively. I am naturally curious, so I thought I would get some valuable info from here on the forum as in the future I may purchase from Laz, but being a man of morals(rarely tho and off the forum!)I'd rather ensure I agreed with their ethos and motivation before parting with a considerable sum of money because if it aint right for me, I will buy elsewhere..even if it means going without and/or waiting.
Other Galleries I have quizzed personally, but Laz himself aint available! 
.................................................................
nothing secret or major !!!

Lazarides Gallery..opinions please!, by seidbereit on Jan 9, 2008 21:03:40 GMT 1, Not quite sure if this is on or off topic but I remember someone once comparing POW and Laz by using the phrase "POW's prints and Laz's sheets of paper".
I wondered at the time what was meant by that but as it was sometime just before xmas I was probably a bit too busy to post a question. One way or the other I'm still not sure what was meant by it and I'm still very curious.
Anyone (even the coiner of the phrase) care to enlighten me?
Thanks.

When I bought a Micallef book the girl who sold it was a bit sarcastic. All fine and helpful when I saw Faile and Insect though, so I guess I caught them at a bad time before.
