The Profile: All About Arlene Angard who is an Interior Designer that has recently opened a new art gallery on the upper east side of Manhattan. Her art exhibitions and interior design style are innovative and refreshing. She is known for her fluency in a broad repertoire of styles ranging from mid-century modernism to classical period adaptations.
Arlene’s work reflects a distinctive ability to create environments that expose a client’s individuality rather than impose a rigid style. When approaching a design project, Arlene starts with a fully considered design and art program. Her new gallery contains work from local American artists. She has combined canvas, glass, metal and a new collection of AA designed rugs in her specialized New York City art gallery.
