ABOUT
Strobel Gallery is a Palm Springs–based contemporary art program presenting painting, sculpture, Studio Glass, and mixed media. The gallery brings these practices into dialogue, with a focus on work shaped by concept, form, and material intelligence.
Operating through exhibitions, art fairs, and special projects, Strobel Gallery places work in private and public collections, in collaboration with collectors, designers, and institutions.
In addition to exhibitions, the gallery offers art consulting, collection development, and bespoke project services—collaborating with artists to realize lighting, furniture, and site-specific works that extend beyond traditional gallery models.
APPROACH
The program is shaped through exhibitions that bring works into dialogue, articulating a cohesive visual language across painting, sculpture, Studio Glass, and mixed media.
Each presentation reflects a focused curatorial vision, where relationships between works are considered with clarity and intention.
Informed by Sheila Strobel's background across fine art, material practice, and spatial design, the program reflects a nuanced understanding of how work is experienced both within the gallery and beyond it.
This perspective extends to how the gallery works with collectors, offering clarity and guidance at every stage of building a collection.
