About the gallery
Welcome to Elizabeth Gordon Gallery
Established in 1984, Elizabeth Gordon Gallery has become a premier destination for contemporary art collectors and enthusiasts. Its stunning collection of paintings adorning the gallery walls offers a captivating experience and stands as one of the most exciting contemporary art collections in the United States. In addition, our commitment to established and emerging contemporary artists sets us apart, fostering a dynamic artistic community and establishing us as a vital cultural hub in the city and beyond.
As passionate advocates for emerging artists, we are dedicated to providing a platform for their creativity. Situated near the vibrant Funk Zone, our gallery is an essential destination for anyone exploring and celebrating the arts.
Since assuming ownership, we have prioritized reestablishing a solid connection with the local community through engaging events and exhibitions. We want the gallery to be an inclusive space for all. Therefore, besides our physical presence, we have expanded our online platform to provide an interactive and authentic experience. We aim to create a portal that transcends traditional boundaries through videos showcasing the artists, behind-the-scenes glimpses of the creative process, and personal connections with the artists.
As curators of this intimate gallery, we strive to create a space that highlights the beauty of each artwork. Through careful rotation and the clever use of lighting, we emphasize the uplifting and sensory appeal of the pieces. Elizabeth Gordon Gallery is renowned for its contemporary focus and exhilarating art. With vibrant pops of color and diverse mediums, from magazine cutout collages to works incorporating natural materials like string and concrete, we aim to represent artists who live and breathe their art, passionate about sharing their unique stories.
Our vision for Elizabeth Gordon Gallery is to become a creative hub that offers educational and interactive experiences through community outreach. We will host many events and exhibitions, providing opportunities for art enthusiasts to connect with the artists and fostering a strong sense of community in Santa Barbara. Furthermore, we will continue to explore diverse artistic mediums, constantly pushing the boundaries of art-making.
