Episode 19 - Tomas Redrado

Tomas Redrado is one of the youngest gallery owners in the United States. He became a gallerist in his homeland of Buenos Aires during the pandemic because he felt it was a period in all of our lives when we could try new things. He was just starting his career in foreign affairs when the world went into lockdown. He couldn’t travel so he turned to his love of art. Tomas was friendly with a number of artists who he really admired so he started representing them. He was only in his early 20s.

Today Tomas is a full-fledged gallerist working in both Miami and Buenos Aires. He explains that Miami is like a second home to people who live in Buenos Aires. They go back and forth all the time. The TOMAS REDRA-DO ART gallery is now located in Little Haiti, Miami. Address is 224 NW 71 Street. 

Tomas feels his art business is very experimental. The gallery of tomorrow will not be what it is today. Collectors travel around more than ever before so you just can’t sit around in one spot and wait for clients to come to you. There are a lot of new opportunities for gallerists to show their collections. He talks a lot about that during our interview.
