eo is pleased to announce it’s transition from art gallery to art consulting firm. According to Owner, John R. Schroeder, the move recognizes several important facts: 1) that most of eo’s business occurs within a core group of discerning residential, institutional, and corporate art collectors, mostly outside the Connecticut River Valley area; 2) that an increasing number of sales are occurring through eo’s website as many buyers are located outside of Connecticut; 3) and that most of their clients are in need of a more personal, tailored service in placing art at home or at work.

In five short years, eo has gained a strong international reputation and has positioned itself closely with top tier galleries across the U.S. as well as Europe, Asia, and South America. eo’s slate of exceptionally talented, highly intelligent, and deeply passionate artists has attracted the attention of thousands across the globe and each are earning an important position in the advancement of art history. Whether hanging in international art fairs, embellishing the pages of acclaimed books and magazines, beating in the heart of the academic world, or gracing the walls of respected art museums, these artists are surely making names for themselves.

While Schroeder and Executive Director Sherrie Coleman will miss the many opportunities to engage the public through eo’s numerous store front events which ranged from artist receptions, to film nights, to intimate soirée’s, they look forward to serving serious art collectors in a more focused, customized, and exclusive fashion. Schroeder’s expertise as a renowned architect and interior designer and Coleman’s exceptional management and curatorial skill will continue to provide a powerful combination in serving the needs of both new and seasoned art buyers.

eo wishes to extend heartfelt thanks to all its loyal patrons far and wide. It has been a thrill and honor to serve them and eo looks forward to continuing these special relationships. eo would also like to thank many in the local community for their wonderful support and praise. eo art lab, art consulting will continue to be a strong supporter of the arts and will continue to present only the best, brightest, and most unique artists to their clientele. eo’s new office will remain in Chester on the second floor above the former gallery at 69 Main Street.
