Request for Question Clarification by tutuzdad-ga on 07 Jun 2006 10:09 PDT

The business itself appears to have no public email address. The
person listed on corporate documents as the primary official is the
company's attorney. Would you like the attorney's contact information
as an answer?

By the way, the commenter's post below is wrong. David Steiner &
Associates is not the law firm I am referring to and is not the law
firm designated as the primary contact.

hi,

tutzdda gave the correct information- the web address for the
attourney is:http://www.martindale.com/California/Los-Angeles/Internet-Law/354-OGO/David-Steiner-Associates-PLC-firmProfile.html?pq=D3053970A7DB14%7C%7C%7C1%7C14%7C69%7C%7C

i tried calling the number listed on the site for the information, and
the person i spoke with told me only a "christine", who was out to
lunch, could handle that query. i was directed to her voicemail and
left her a message asking if she could return my call or email the
information along. if i do hear back from her, i'll let you know. just
note that it's possible she may have to be authorized by the gallery
to do this, so if i don't hear back anytime soon, your best course of
action in this situation would probably be calling the office yourself
-
310-557-8422 
asking to speak with Christine, and then explaining your interest in
the gallery, and your  legitimate (if there needs be one) reason* for
contacting Visage via email.
*for example, if someone was  looking to donate a valuable item to, or
funds for, the gallery, that person would probably more readily be
given contact information over someone who might be, for example, 
looking for a job...

( i am basing that hypothesis on the fact that the gallery's email
address does not seem to be publicly listed, or easily found, which
may have been a conscious decision on the company's part.)

good luck, i'll comment again if i hear back from them, though
otherwise the aforementioned steps advised would probably be your best
bet.

well, regarding tutuzdad's comment:
"By the way, the commenter's post below is wrong. David Steiner &
Associates is not the law firm I am referring to and is not the law
firm designated as the primary contact"

i am sorry to have assumed that the information i found and tutuzdad's
was one and the same, but perhaps that is why he's a certified
"expert", and i'm just a blitz on the googleanswers screen, and why
he/she receives a literal dollar amount for certified answers versus
someone's two cents, which in my case, may not have been worth even
that. but i was just trying to help...

regardless, it's also possible that while my information was different
from the experts', it may not be *completely* "wrong"... just another
way of going about it- say, if at first tutuzdad's information doesn't
work out, i offer an alternative way you might want to try.

however my hypothesis in the previous comment was verified- at least
for the number i gave you... tutuzdad could probably find the address
from the firm he was thinking of--
Christine called me back and confirmed that she would first need to
know to whom she was giving the contact information and for what
purposes.

so again, the law firm tutuzdad will give you might have a more
lenient policy or authorization permission for such release of
information, but otherwise you might want to try what i advised in the
previous comment( whether that be with christine, or with tutuzdad's
answer)

again, sorry tutuzdad, i didn't mean to affirm the wrong information in your name. 
and apologies to odile if my information caused more harm than help.

No problem. The blurb you are talking about merely lists Visage Fine
Arts as one of  David Steiner & Associates' "Representative Clients"
meaning, "examples of the type of clients we've previously
represented". That's probably why the firm is hesitant to divulge
confidential and priviledged attorney/client information. My
information however is based on a government document filed with the
state wherein an attorney actually lists himself or herself as the
person to be contacted regarding inquires about this company.
