For more than fifty years, Kodner Gallery has served as a trusted advisor in fine art acquisitions, certified appraisals, and discreet private sales for collectors, families, estates, and institutions. We work with museum-quality works and significant private collections, frequently advising clients prior to any public sale. Our expertise includes USPAP-compliant appraisals, estate and collection guidance, and rigorous, museum-level research.

Today, the gallery is led by brothers Jonathan and David Kodner, whose combined decades of experience guide every client engagement with precision, integrity, and long-term perspective. Recognized for their scholarship, discretion, and market insight, Kodner Gallery is often consulted at the outset of estate evaluations and collection transitions—helping clients assess, preserve, and maximize value before taking action.

Areas of expertise include:

• Discreet fine art acquisitions and private sales
• Certified appraisals (USPAP and AAA compliant), accepted for insurance, estate planning, and charitable donation purposes
• Estate and collection advisement, assisting families and fiduciaries in determining the most appropriate course for their artwork before any sale decisions are made
• Advisory support for wealth managers and professional advisors, integrating fine art into long-term planning strategies
• Historical, scholarly, and provenance research, frequently relied upon in museum, academic, and institutional contexts

Jonathan and David are known for their white-glove approach, long-standing client relationships, and deep understanding of both market dynamics and the personal significance of fine art ownership. Clients and their families have entrusted Kodner Gallery across generations.

Now entering its third generation of family involvement, the Kodner legacy continues with renewed vision and a deep commitment to responsible stewardship for the future.
