Brett Wesley Gallery

I’m sure this would more fun if this was open. It’s has some nice article in the hallway.

Having been to their previous free-​standing location on Charleston and Casino Center Blvd, this is a bit of a downgrade. It’s much smaller and not nearly as impressive. However, the location is better. Having a spot in Art Square allows them to be next to other galleries and be in the heart of the art community (including the traffic from First Friday). There’s also enough wall for the pieces in most exhibitions and creates an intimate space.
Brett Wesley features really great local artists, including Giovanni Morales. He currently has a solo exhibition called «True Romance» (6÷5−6÷28) and it displays seven original pieces. I’m a big fan of his use of hand-​etched stencils and multiple layers of paint creating unique, bold, and colorful pop art pieces.
I recommend signing up for e-​mail updates from the gallery, so you can check out exhibitions for veteran and up-​and-​coming artists! There is a parking lot available for Art Square facing Charleston or street parking within the next two blocks.
