Park West Gallery Is Taking Over the Seven Seas!

It’s a pleasure to announce that we are EXPANDING!
In an extraordinary move, we have added a new cruise line partnership in Margaritaville at Sea! Park West Gallery is bringing the world’s favorite art auctions at sea to their fleet of two ships, where it’s always 5 o’clock. The ships are Islander and Paradise, both Florida-based. Islander sails four and five night itineraries out of Tampa, and Paradise sails from Palm Beach in two, three, and four night itineraries. As their first third-party revenue department, it’s a privilege to be part of this great fleet!
On the Paradise, our Park West Gallery team, headed by Principal Auctioneer Ralph Bird, began their first revenue cruise August 22, 2025. Joining Ralph as his group of champions were Gallery Directors Valeriia Vernichenko and Miriam Craig, Art Associates Crina Cojanu and Daniel Raath, and Art Coordinator Vivian D’Souza.
The Islander team launched under the direction of Principal Auctioneer Wouter Coetsee, backed by his A-team of Gallery Director Kieran Davidson, Art Associates Armand Visser and Diandra Labuschagne, and Art Coordinator Andre Walker. Their first revenue cruise started August 8, 2025 and kicked of with a bang – their very first month ended at 224% to target, with a strong average of 31 clients per voyage!
Not only are we gaining new partnerships, but Park West Gallery is growing within our established partnerships, as well.
On Princess Cruise Line, one of two ship launches is completed. The Star Princess began its inaugural trip with two cruises from Barcelona before it crosses to Fort Lauderdale, Florida. Star Princess hits Fort Lauderdale November 5, and we can’t wait to see them! The team was originally launched by Principal Auctioneer David Fussy, but due to an external circumstance, is now headed by Principal Auctioneer Matt Anders. Joining Matt is a team of superstars- Gallery Directors Manfred Van Nieuwenhuizen and Natalja Alam, Art Associate Maverick McPherson, and Art Coordinator Lyrics Matarutse. The launch date for our team on the Sun Princess is to be announced at a later date.
The Star Princess and Sun Princess are part of a new class of ship for PCL, called Sphere Class. They feature a stunning dome as a multi-level covered deck with an indoor and outdoor pool and is the space for unique acrobatics and aerialist shows. There is a restaurant onboard which brings together fine dining with the style and creativity of Romero Britto! From plates decorated with his signature mathematical symbols, to hearts on the cocktail glasses, Love by Britto is a truly unique experience. Our Park West Gallery is situated next to the Crown Grill Steakhouse, in a prime real estate area for traffic.
