When Bill joined his father in 1960 selling works from the Italian Renaissance, he expanded the focus of the gallery to include major works of the 19th and 20th centuries, offering paintings by the masters of Impressionism, Post-Impressionism, Cubism, and Surrealism. Today, the entire scope of 20th century art is represented, including Abstract Expressionism and Pop Art. For over ninety years, Acquavella Galleries has sold major paintings and sculpture to private collectors and museums worldwide in addition to presenting museum-quality exhibitions.
Over the course of the 1970s and ’80s, Acquavella turned the gallery into a leader in the 19th and 20th century art markets, attracting billionaire clients like Paul Mellon, Walter Annenberg, and Henry Ford.[/cs_text][x_gap size=”40px”][cs_text style=”margin-top:-20px;”][bctt tweet=”“The best people get along with other people very well.
