A Houston artist is shedding light on the darkness of Alzheimer’s with a two-day event, being held on Tuesday and Saturday.
“The Longest Day” is a charity event and art sale in Spring Valley Village, focusing on raising money for Alzheimer’s and Dementia research.
Artist and Houston native Caryn Landauer is making the entire gallery, including photos and original artwork, available for sale. Twenty-five percent of the proceeds will be donated for the research and awareness cause.
Those interested in supporting, please visit the event, which runs through 8 p.m. Tuesday, with another showcase being held on Saturday, beginning at 9 a.m.
The location is 1511 Bingle Rd., Bldg. C-1. For more information, call 713-301-7291, or visit the gallery’s website.
With a family history of artists and other creative types, Caryn Landauer was born with creativity flowing through her veins. She started with photography in the 3rd grade.
With that spark, she was inspired further to become an artist by her mother, Ruth Landauer, who has served as her business partner at Landauer-Art Showroom since 1998.
“When I was young, I started taking photographs in the 3rd grade and so I’ve always done something on the artsy side,” she said.
After growing up in the Spring Branch area, Caryn Landauer expresses amazement about how the neighborhood has changed and grown lately. Many people have asked her about moving elsewhere, but in her response she shares how she loves the Spring Branch District and wants to continue living there.
“I grew up around this area and I just liked it. It was very different, and back then, I had to bring art to people because they wouldn’t come over here. So it has been amazing watching this neighborhood change. It’s unbelievable to see the house and the complexes going up and it’s been really fun to watch that.”
At the gallery, she explained that she continues to thoroughly enjoy being a painter because the creative process allows her to follow inspiration from within.
“I like the freedom of what comes from inside of me,” she said.
Looking around the gallery, a visitor might think the versatile art work came from dozens of artists. In actuality, the work comes mostly from Caryn, her mother Ruth, other artist relatives, plus a few sculptors and other artists.
Caryn Landauer described the works as covering a wide spectrum of styles and materials: Abstract, acrylics, water colors, pastels, 3D, metallics, wood, clay, printing and more. The business also offers photo restoration services. In addition, Landauer Art sells art created by artists including Renee Rubin(identical twin of Ruth), Ken Landauer furniture and sculptures, Lydia Corbett/Sylvette David (a Picasso Muse) plus more.
The business also offers framing services, creative digital art, copy, scanning, photo restoration services, photography, sculptures, pet portraits, etc. Caryn constantly consults at customer’s residences, offices, or even beach houses.
Landauer Art has participated in many galas and charitable events in the last 24 years.
During my visit to the gallery, I was curious to know what her favorite artwork was. She said textured artwork and pieces that “pop” happen to be her favorites — and that she enjoys the peaceful process of just sitting, looking and getting her creative mind going.
We regret to inform you that unfortunately, our Studio-Showroom will be closed at our current location after 25 years.
While we were excited to continue showcasing the work of talented artists, and sculptors and providing a space for art appreciation at our 1511 Bingle Rd., Bldg C-1, Houston, Texas location. Current circumstances have necessitated the need for relocation of the gallery.
Until further notice, we are still here to support your love of art and will be offering home & office consultations during this time. I can bring the art gallery to you, providing images and ideas with one-on-one consultations in the comfort of your own space or work with you via Zoom.
We will continue working on your photo restoration & framing needs and can email imagery if requested.
We apologize for any inconvenience this closure may cause and thank you for your patience as we work to figure out our relocation. We can’t wait to see you all back in our new location, or online. Hopefully, we will have an even better space for you to enjoy the beauty of art.
Our goal is to continue providing our customers with quality art and creative services while adapting to our current situation.
Customers can contact us through our website www.LandauerArt.com or our social media sites. Please call or text 713.301.7291 to find out more about our available services and still access the art you will love.
We will keep you updated as soon as we have news about the relocation.
Thank you for your understanding and continued support.

Welcome to our brand new Landauer Art wonderful mobile-friendly website created by the incredible web designer, Jay Jackson, owner of Makeitcomplete.com. The appreciation I have for Jay and his patience in working with me in creating this great website, I cannot verbalize in just a few sentences. I personally have put off making a new mobile website for over six years. Jay has taken many, many hours with his great expertise design knowledge to come up with this customized website. Working with an artistic person is not always an easy task.
I have known the need to be mobile friendly due to all the facts of the internet, but I had been reluctant to spend the time getting things together, but after my first telephone consult with Jay, I knew it was the time and he was the right person, even before our first in person meeting. Jay understood all my hesitations and because of us having a good rapport and his methodical organized step by step approach, we were able to develop a unique and compelling website which features our artwork plus a few other artists we represent encompassing the entire website.
