Amy Chace is here to remind us that, no matter what may come to pass, the world is still a magical, maximalist playground. Once a band photographer chasing kinetics from the pit, Amy now invites us to dive head-first and blissfully surrender to a vibrant universe of color, fantasy, and curiosity. In...

Studio Inventory Hiatus Begins July 6 ℹ️

------

Savants,

Momentum around Jon Sarkin's legacy has reached a new all-time high.

Institutional attention continues to accelerate, with active conversations and growing interest from notable regional museums, and more promising developments anticipated in the coming months. Meanwhile, the Bushwick Gallery will showcase select Sarkin originals at the prestigious Hamptons Fine Art Fair, further elevating Jon's visibility among discerning collectors. Finally, we're seeing increased requests from private collectors for viewing and appraisal, as previously acquired Sarkin works resurface in unexpected places, from local art swaps to private collections.

As we thoughtfully respond to this expanding recognition, the studio inventory availability will pause beginning July 6, entering a hiatus to facilitate careful curatorial and archival work.

This is excellent news for both existing collectors and those considering their first Sarkin acquisition.

> How to Collect During the Hiatus

Rest assured: there are still opportunities for a range of collectors, from new enthusiasts to seasoned connoisseurs.
• Cape Ann Auctions: Periodic auctions with engaging starting bids.
• The Salted Cod Arthouse in Rocky Neck, Gloucester
• Slant / Rhyme Studios in Bearskin Neck, Rockport
• COSMOS Gallery in Downtown Gloucester

We will also be offering studio appointments, with select significant works available by private inquiry.

> The Hamptons Fine Art Fair

If you happen to be in Southhampton July 10-13, visit Bushwick Gallery at booths 405 & 406 for select available pieces.

More information on the HFAF website.

With sincere gratitude for your continued enthusiasm and support. It's your passion, curiosity, and commitment that carry Jon's remarkable legacy forward, and we look forward to sharing this next exciting chapter with you.

Warmest regards,
Mark Henderson
Director, Fish City Studios & The Jon Sarkin Estate
