Previewing upcoming art exhibitions from coast to coast, American Art Collector is a unique monthly magazine specially designed to bring living representational artists, galleries and active art collectors together in one place.
As I’m sure you all know, we spend a lot of time traveling the country and going to art events. For us, it’s the best way to really know what’s going on out there, to have our finger on the pulse, and in turn, offer to you updated and timely articles that will help you with your art collecting. Many of you go on these trips as well. And we love seeing you out there. I’ve always said that if we have to work, there’s nothing better than working with good friends. But for those of you who can’t go on these trips or at least can’t go on all of them we have a solution—our Instagram page. We can be found at @AmericanArtCollector, and what you’ll find there is…

In 1969, sketch artist Paul Calle drew three men as they ate breakfast and then got ready for work. These would have been ordinary and innocuous events had the three men not been Neil Armstrong, Buzz Aldrin and Michael Collins as they were preparing to board a rocket headed to the moon. Years later, after a rewarding career as an illustrator, Calle turned his attention to another kind of explorer: fur trappers and traders on the American frontier. Both aspects of Calle’s career—illustration and his later easel work in the Western world—will be featured in a major retrospective titled Paul Calle’s Life of Exploration: From the Mountains to the Moon, which opened February 5 at Western Spirit: Scottsdale’s Museum of the West in Scottsdale, Arizona. The title and show were…
