Art Is About Beauty – Sometimes in More Ways Than One

When I first read that Anna Weyant, a 27-year-old artist represented by the influential Gagosian Gallery, had sold a painting for $1.6 million, I was eager to know more about her. I first looked at her work. And, sure enough, her paintings are technically accomplished and… well, beautiful. But I’d never heard of anyone that young getting that kind of money. Ever. So I did a bit more research and discovered that, prior to signing with Gagosian just three years ago, her paintings were selling for just hundreds or thousands.

That was an even greater anomaly. Until I saw this photo and read about her relationship with the gallery. What was her secret? Find out here.
