Canvas Paper and Stone Gallery
An art gallery launched on the web more than 12 years ago. At the time, genesisartline.com was the largest online art gallery catering to the African American art market, created when the Internet was called the World Wide Web, when what it really meant was the world wide wait because you were always waiting for your graphics to download. With a few hundred works of art by and for African Americans, it foretold the coming of the visual arts online. With genesisartline.com as the launchpad, Archer was able to launch a retail gallery in Harlem, American Vision 145, which had a successful two year run.

Originally a Dutch West India Company bowerie, or farm, the original portion of the Pieter Claesen Wyckoff House was built c.1652 and is the oldest building in New York City. It is also one of the oldest wooden structures in this country, and the entire structure was designated a National Historic Landmark in 1968. The house was enlarged c.1740 and as a whole is an excellent example of the Dutch Colonial vernacular style with its H-frame structure, shingled walls, split Dutch doors, and deep, flared 'spring' eaves. | |
