The Exclusive Collections Gallery is a wonderful stop if you appreciate unique and meaningful art. The gallery features an impressive collection of Dr. Seuss pieces, along with works from other prominent artists. It showcases amazing paintings and phenomenal sculptures, making the entire experience visually captivating. Scott gave us a warm welcome and a quick walkthrough of the gallery, which added a personal touch to the experience. He also checked in with us again toward the end of our visit and even took the time to recommend options nearby for dinner, a thoughtful gesture that didn’t go unnoticed. This truly felt like quality, artsy time well spent. Definitely worth a visit if you’re in the area.
What an amazing gallery full of gorgeous paintings, Dr Seuss illustrations and eclectic sculptures. Marcia greeted us as soon as we came in and gave us the time to browse but was readily available for any questions we had. She even gave us directions since we were new to town. Definitely worth stopping in to check out this gallery❤️
Discovered a true gem in San Diego's vibrant Gaslamp Quarter - the Exclusive Collections Gallery, a sophisticated fine art destination that's been enriching the local art scene since its founding in 1995 with the philosophy that 'art is an essential component of our lives.' This elegant gallery has built a loyal collector base by expertly curating a diverse collection that creates a Legacy in Art. The gallery impresses with its thoughtfully organized exhibition spaces showcasing captivating works by contemporary artists. I was particularly drawn to Fabio Napoleoni's emotive robot-themed pieces with their charming storytelling quality, while Michael Flohr's impressionistic paintings of urban scenes, horse races, and elegant dining experiences demonstrate exceptional brushwork and vibrant color palettes. On the corner of 5th & Market, the gallery has become known for its impressive collection of paintings, sculpture, and glasswork and welcomes visitors with a striking colorful chandelier as they step inside. The gallery proudly holds the distinction of being 'the Gaslamp's first individually-owned Native American business,' with owner Ruth Ann Thorn (a member of the Rincon Band of Luiseno Indians) serving as a passionate ambassador for diverse artistic voices, including featuring outstanding Native American artists from across the country. Both the expertly curated collection and the knowledgeable staff make this historic gallery a must-visit destination for art enthusiasts seeking quality contemporary works in the heart of San Diego.
The Native American art caught my eye. Then was surprised by Dr Seuss artwork that you can’t find anywhere else. The art was discovered after he passed away. Rolled up in the basement of a home that was being renovated. They can deliver and frame. There are around 800 copies available of most of the Dr Seuss work. The gallery itself is one of the oldest in the area. An historic building. Arti was very informative and helpful. Thank you for showing us the gallery!
We stumbled upon this gem of a gallery this morning and really enjoyed browsing the art exhibits, especially the Dr Seuss collection. The staff was really friendly, especially Natalie. We're from out of town and Natalie took the time to explain how we could easily get purchases shipped back home.
