Jeff Aeling (1958-2025): Renowned Landscape Painter - Epi. 338, Host Dr. Mark Sublette

One of the reasons I started the Art Dealer Diaries Podcast was
to capture these important voices of artists, dealers,
collectors, writers, and photographers. I wanted to preserve the
stories of all of these individuals that have come into my life
or that I've been aware of whose voices I felt needed to be
captured. Jeff Aeling was one of those important voices and he
just recently passed. 

Jeff was a good friend, and I represented him for 25+ years. It's
interesting when you look back at a career of an artist and an
art dealer, all of the things that you go through, the good
times, the bad times... But every time Jeff and I were talking to
each other, whether it was business related or just personal - we
would always have these intimate talks about creative writing,
art, and cinema.

Jeff passed this past week, and I wanted to make sure that people
had the opportunity to listen to this unique voice who changed
the way I saw things.

Rest in peace, Jeff. Thank you for everything.
