Steven Kenny is an artist whose works are well-known to me; he's a former prizewinner at one of the Fraser Gallery's former competitions at the original Fraser location in Georgetown. He writes:
You can add my name to the list of artists who have been robbed by Klaudia Marr. In October of 2009 she returned my paintings to me after moving her gallery to a new location. One painting was missing and it took her a month to reveal that it had been sold although she claimed not to know when or to whom. She admits to owing me $2,475.00 but has continually claimed to be unable to make any payments.
After I learned of my undisclosed sale I decided to see how widespread the situation was. It seems I am one of the lucky ones. I contacted 10 artists who were represented by Klaudia Marr Gallery and five replied that they were owed money.
Regards,
Steven Kenny
I still find it hard to understand how something can really be considered "sold" if the owner never gets paid.
