As avid fine art buyers and collectors, RoGallery has amassed an extensive collection of modern and contemporary artworks, home furnishings, and fine decor.
We sell vintage estate and museum-quality artworks including paintings, prints, sculptures, and photography. We also offer convenient services for our clients including consignments, in-house packing & worldwide shipping, framing, trading, and appraisals.
RoGallery purchases art almost every day - we are always interested in estates, private, and corporate collections. Art professionals know us as a primary source for all of their artwork needs. RoGallery clients include but are not limited to interior designers, art advisors, architects, museums, universities, hotels, hospitals, and other trade professionals.
RoGallery is a unique force in the art world. We have been an art gallery, fine art dealer, and auction house for over 35 years located in the vibrant Queens neighborhood of Long Island City in NYC. During this time, RoGallery has established its place in the New York City art world as a trustworthy and reputable source of modern and contemporary artworks.
The gallery was founded in the early 1980s by Gail and Robert Rogal, who would become an art world power couple. They established themselves initially as reputable art dealers of limited edition prints by buying out the entire inventories of several major art publishing companies. Over the years, Gail and Robert Rogal's keen eye for superb artworks has expanded the collection to include thousands of original paintings, photographs, and sculptures. The passion for collecting is still going strong today as we grow the RoGallery collection through purchases and quality consignments.
Fine art buyers that are within driving distance or visiting New York City are encouraged to visit us at our 10,000 square foot gallery showroom. The gallery is by appointment only. Hours are Monday - Friday 10 am - 6 pm ET. Please let us know in advance of your visit what artworks you would like to see. Most items are on-site, but some need to be transferred to our location for viewing.
In November 2024, RoGallery Museum of LIC was established at 37-02 48th Avenue - just around the corner - as a sister institution to the gallery. This museum was founded to create a public-access space full of Modern and Contemporary art for the LIC and NYC community. Along with exhibitions featuring local artists and internationally-touring exhibitions, RoGallery Museum of LIC also showcases excellent selections from the RoGallery inventory. Visit the museum website to learn more about its mission, collection, exhibitions, and hours.

How do I purchase an artwork?
Artwork can be purchased directly on the website on the product detail page. Below the artwork description is a blue, rectangular button that says ‘buy now’ and clicking it will begin the checkout process.
How can I make an offer on an artwork?
Some artworks allow the option to make an offer. If the work you are looking at has that option, a white rectangular button that says ‘make an offer’ will appear to the right of the ‘buy now’ option. Keep in mind this feature is not available on all artworks.
How will I know if my offer is accepted?
If your offer is accepted, you will receive an email with attached invoice prompting you to complete payment through the website directly.

Does RoGallery buy artwork?
We are active buyers of fine art prints, paintings, sculptures, and photography. Please use our Sell Art page to enter information and photographs of the art you would like to sell. We will be in touch by email to let you know how we can best help you sell your collection.
Do you have consignment options?
RoGallery offers listing and consignment options for those not interested in selling outright. A listing means you keep the artwork in your possession while we use your photos and information to sell the artwork on our site and in our live auctions. A consignment means we hold the artwork at our gallery and you receive payment after it sells. Generally, we work on net pricing meaning we agree on a fair price and that is the amount you would receive on a sale with no commissions taken from your end. The gallery collects commissions from the buyer only. To submit artwork for consideration, please use our Sell Art page to upload photos and information.
I am an artist; can I sell my own artwork with RoGallery?
We are always looking to expand our collection of contemporary artists. Please use the Sell Art page to submit your original artworks for consideration.
Do you offer custom framing?
We offer custom framing options for artwork purchased from the gallery. Our professional framing department uses only acid-free, museum-quality materials and Plexiglas so that your new artwork is framed for preservation. If you have specific framing instructions, please email art@rogallery.com or call (+1)718-937-0901 to discuss with our framing team.
Can I trade an artwork from my collection for an artwork on RoGallery.com?
Yes, in some cases. Please use the Sell Art page to submit your artwork and make a note in the comments of what you would like to trade for. We will follow up by email with the value your artwork may have on trade with us.
Do you appraise art?
Yes, our director Robert Rogal is certified by the International Fine Art Appraisers (https://www.ifaacertified.com/) to provide appraisals on your artwork. If you need written documentation for insurance or legal purposes, appraisals begin at $150/item. We can provide free evaluation over the phone if you are simply looking to get an idea of resale value. Please use the Sell Art page to upload your photos and information and note in the comments if you are looking for an idea of value or a written appraisal.
What are RoGallery auctions?
We hold live and timed auctions online at least once a month to showcase new acquisitions alongside gallery favorites.

How are taxes calculated?

Please check your local tax rates to determine how sales tax will be calculated on your order.
Will I be charged import/VAT fees?
All artworks that ship outside the United States are subject to the import/VAT fees of the destination country. When you purchase an artwork on our site and indicate a shipping address outside of the US, you will be prompted to pay these taxes upon arrival of the item into customs in your country.
Can I cancel my order?
If you place an order that you’d like to cancel, please contact art@rogallery.com or call (+1)718-937-0901 to let our team know. We typically ship within one business day, so if you want to cancel an order that has already shipped it would fall under our return policy of 5 days with all original packaging materials. Please notify us as soon as you become aware of an error, and be sure to check the details of your order carefully before placing it. There is a 10% cancellation fee to cover lost credit card costs.
Can I return my order if the artwork does not work in my space?
If an item does not meet your expectations, we have a 5 day return policy. Items must be returned in the same condition with all the same packing materials to receive a refund. Please contact us within 5 days of receiving your artwork for a refund or credit towards another purchase. Returns started within this window are subject to a restocking fee of 10% to cover processing fees. If after 5 days we accept a return, you would be subject to a 25% restocking fee. Any incurred shipping costs on our end will be subtracted from the total amount refunded. Please note that we do not allow returns on custom orders, custom framing, or auction items.
How are shipping fees determined?
Shipping quotes are based on the size of the artwork and its value. We typically ship with UPS and FedEx insured for the full value in case there is ever a problem in transit.
How does RoGallery ship artwork?
All items are packed in-house and shipped via UPS, FedEx, USPS, white glove delivery, or global carrier services. We ship all items with signature required and fully insured, so we are unable to ship to PO boxes.

You are welcome to stop by the gallery to pick up purchased artwork. Make an appointment by emailing art@rogallery.com or calling (+1)718-937-0901 to let us know when you would like to stop by so we can have it packed and ready to go.
How do I track my package once it ships?
When your order ships, you will receive an email with the UPS or FedEx tracking number. If we ship with a white glove courier, we will be in touch by phone or email to coordinate delivery date and time with our driver.
