For 35 years, Pasquale Iannetti, with his gallery, has been dealing in Fine Original Prints and other works of Art from the 16th century to the present, on the 500 block of Sutter Street in cosmopolitan San Francisco. Florentine born Pasquale Iannetti, after studying economics at the University of Florence and attending the Accademia di Belle Arti in the same city, left his hometown and moved to San Francisco in 1969 as the West Coast director for London Arts, a firm with major galleries in London, New York and Detroit.
After co-founding Nabis Fine Art in New York and eventually selling his interest in the firm, Mr. Iannetti founded the gallery that bears his name. Following the success of his original gallery in San Francisco, additional galleries were opened in New York, San Francisco and Carmel. In 1991, Mr. Iannetti decided to close the new galleries and concentrate on providing the best quality Art to his main gallery in San Francisco.
Surrounded by the Art he diligently collects, Mr. Iannetti prides himself in being a provider of master works for both the amateur and the serious Art collector, and he believes that in collecting Fine Original Art, one can enjoy the works for their aesthetic value while they also appreciate over time. His extensive library allows for thorough research to be done on individual works to verify their authenticity and to formulate their historical and conceptual background. With Mr. Iannetti at its helm, the gallery, during its 35 years, has concentrated on educating the public with one-person exhibitions of works by numerous artists including, among others, Dürer, Rembrandt, Goya, Piranesi, Van Ostade, Claude Lorrain, Turner, Whistler, Renoir, Lautrec, Kollwitz, Léger, Matisse, Picasso, Bacon, and Zuñiga. Mr. Iannetti also represents a small number of contemporary artists who show unusual talent such as Marco Sassone, and sculptors Armando Amaya and Jeffrey Van Dyke.
The gallery has recently expanded its scope by exhibiting works by Minor Impressionists, otherwise known as Les Petits Maîtres, artists of great talent but who did not receive much deserved recognition during their lifetime, partly because of the demand of the market for big names, partly because of fashion, but also because some of these artists preferred to stay away from Paris, the capital at that time of the Art world.
Mr. Iannetti is an experienced Fine Art appraiser and authenticator of works on paper and has appeared on television, radio and newspapers as a commentator on Art matters.
