Funny you should say that.  Hard to argue with success, however, unfortunately,I had a very similar experience, which by now is well over a decade ago ---  I never did go back...  

Although, I am more than certain it had everything to do with the staff and not the owner.

Still, reality is,  how one is received (whether dressed to the 9's - artist, author, buyer, or ?) makes a palatable difference, in any setting and circumstance.

A few years, I also went to the Olga Korper Gallery, and also as an online contributor to a website (a prominent Toronto-related website that it is not necessary to name). My reception at the main desk was frosty--to say the least--from both the receptionist and the gallery director. The gallery was cold and cavernous. The two ladies dimissive and (dare I say it) pretentious. Then the director rushed over to fawn over some baby boomer couple dressed from head to toe in black.

Really, it was quite unfortunate. I like the Korper Gallery and was pleased to read that Ms. Korper herself is welcoming and gracious. Perhaps in the last few years, proprietors of all stripes are realizing that online reviewers deserve the same respectable reception as their counterparts in the print medium.

I wound up at the Christopher Cutts Gallery instead (across the Foundry) and was charmed by the warmth of its space and staff. While it did not influence what I had to say about the collection at the time, it did get the Cutts Gallery an online review, whereas the the Korper Gallery lost out.

That would not have affected their sales, of course, since it's doubtful that my little review could have had that effect, but it certainly affected the number of public visitors to the Korper Gallery. And I think that Olga Korper would have cared about that, because there are few gallery owners who believe that the art on their walls should not be seen by the public.
