about VINSONart, LLC

VINSONart is family-owned partnership founded by Shawn Vinson & Ruth Franklin in 1994. 
We show original, contemporary & outsider art by local & internationally recognized artists.
Our bricks & mortar gallery is located at The WADDI in the historic Inman Park neighborhood of Atlanta.
We offer personalized & professional art acquisition, consulting, curation & installation services for private & corporate collectors & healthcare environments, plus cleared art licensing for Georgia film & television productions.

about The WADDI

The WADDI is an art gallery in the heart of Inman Park, opened in the summer of 2021 (after an 15 month pandemic delay). Our spacious, 2,600 square foot gallery has 14 foot high ceilings with skylights filling the main room with natural light. A large, paved courtyard offers ample space for outdoor sculptures & special events. The WADDI previously housed the studios of Atlanta artists Fahamu Pecou & Eben Dunn, until a fire gutted the building in 2018. Thankfully, nobody was injured & both artists have risen from the ashes & reestablished their own respective ateliers in Atlanta.

  • art sourcing & acquisition
