“I taught art in the Memphis City Schools for thirty-seven years, including twenty-seven years at Westwood and four at Overton School for the Creative and Performing Arts. I’d drive by Gallery 56 every day on my way to school, looking in the window and thinking, 'I’d like to show my work there', so one day I went in. I started out as one of the artists, and now I’m the director. I’ve been at Gallery 56 for four years now. I’m a sort of gatekeeper, helping to decide which pieces the gallery will take. A lot of effort has gone into this place. I love it. There’s such energy, so many interesting people.”
Gallery 56 Director Rollin Kocsis's hand-painted silk scarves are available at Palladio Antiques and Art, 2169 Central Avenue and at Diane's Art, Gift, & Home, 1581 Overton Park Avenue. For a slideshow of the beautiful pieces that are available, click HERE.
