Sullivan Goss - An American Gallery

Sullivan Goss - An American Gallery Celebrating 36 years of 19th, 20th and 21st Century American Art. Sullivan Goss - An American Gallery has represented the work of American artists for 30 years.

The contributions of these artists, from the 19th century to today, can be found in our two galleries in downtown Santa Barbara, California. With an inventory of over 3,000 works, including paintings, watercolors, drawings, prints and sculptures, Sullivan Goss is the primary West Coast gallery positioned to help build private and public collections of important American art. The gallery is constan

tly seeking to acquire works by significant American painters and sculptors who worked between 1850 and 1950 including those artists referred to as luminists, impressionists, expressionists and modernists. Our Santa Barbara location offers approximately twenty exhibitions each year, including solo shows for contemporary artists and curated historical exhibitions. The gallery, through its research efforts, is also involved with scholarship and research for American artists.
