After moving to Florida in 1996, they opened a gallery in Olde Naples featuring the finest of Modern and Contemporary art. Important shows were mounted on Robert Rauschenberg “Beamer Paintings and the BMW Art Car”, Christo and Jeanne-Claude “Gates” and “Over the River”, and Pierre-Auguste Renoir “Art and Archives”.

In June, 2008, Jane Eckert relocated Eckert Fine Art to Kent, Connecticut, just 90 miles north of New York City. Kent, a charming New England town, is known for its rich artistic heritage and serves as a perfect backdrop for her new gallery. Nineteenth and early 20th Century painters such as Ernest Lawson and Hugh Bolton Jones mingle beautifully with great Contemporary giants like Robert Rauschenberg, Jasper Johns and Ed Ruscha.

Jane has lectured on art and has published books such as The Hoosier Group, 5 American Painters by Judith Newton and Dr. William H. Gerdts. She has also curated shows for The Evansville Museum of Art, The Butler Institute of American Art and The Naples Philharmonic Museum of Art. She has served as Secretary of the Fine Art Dealers Association (FADA) and is currently Chair of the Director’s Advisory Committee at Mass MoCA.

Eckert Fine Art – Connecticut, Inc. is a member of the Fine Art Dealers Association and exhibits annually at the Los Angeles Art Show and Palm Beach 3.
