About

The Gib Singleton Gallery opened on Willow Bridge Road in Vail Village in 2012 as a permanent home for the bronzes of Gib Singleton, the sculptor best known for his cowboys, outlaws and biblical figures. It holds an extensive collection of his work, from Western pieces such as Black Jack Ketchum to crucifixes and a Pieta.

It suits collectors of Western and devotional sculpture and anyone curious about an artist whose work has been shown, the gallery says, at the Vatican Museum, Yad Vashem and the Museum of Modern Art. The gallery stays open until 8 p.m. six nights a week, so a visit fits after the lifts close.

The sculptor

Singleton served in the Army, taught high school art and won a Fulbright Fellowship to restore Renaissance art in Europe, studying at the Accademia di Belle Arti in Florence before being recruited by the Vatican workshop. A visit to the Frederic Remington museum sent him west to Santa Fe and to Western subjects, though he said he saw no real difference between his Western and biblical work.

Not only Singleton

The gallery also hangs rotating shows from other artists, currently including Earl Biss, Carrie Fell, James Jensen, David Riley, Anke Schofield and the photographer David Yarrow. Several times a year it hosts evenings with the artist in attendance; the events page lists what is coming up.

A sister gallery nearby

Gib Singleton Gallery is one of two galleries, with Relevant Galleries Vail on East Meadow Drive, that together make up The Vail Galleries, run by the AD Galleries family. Relevant leans contemporary, so the two make an easy pairing on one walk through the village.

Visiting

The gallery is at 1 Willow Bridge Road, suite CS-5. Walk in during opening hours, or email ahead if you want to talk about a particular piece. Hours and contact details are in the FAQ.

Frequently Asked Questions

Where is the Gib Singleton Gallery?
At 1 Willow Bridge Road, suite CS-5, in Vail Village, a short walk from the gallery's sister space, Relevant Galleries Vail on East Meadow Drive. Singleton himself was based in Santa Fe, New Mexico, which is why his name also appears there; this gallery is the Vail one.
What are the gallery's hours?
Monday to Saturday 10 a.m. to 8 p.m., and Sunday 10 a.m. to 5 p.m. The evening closing six nights a week makes it an easy stop after skiing or dinner in the Village. The official site publishes no seasonal variation to these hours.
Can I buy a Gib Singleton sculpture at the gallery, and what does it cost?
Yes, the gallery sells Singleton's bronzes, but it does not publish prices. His sculptures are limited-edition bronzes offered in several sizes for the same work (his Lincoln, for example, runs from an 18-inch book edition of 300 up to a 90-inch edition of 9), and every piece on the gallery's website is marked "Inquire." Ask in person, call (970) 476-4851 or email [email protected] for the price and availability of a specific work.
Who was Gib Singleton?
Gib Singleton (1935-2014) was an American sculptor of Western and biblical bronzes, the leading bronze sculptor of his era in the official biography's assessment, whose work has been shown at the Museum of Modern Art, Yad Vashem and the Vatican Museum. He served in the Army, taught high school art, won a Fulbright Fellowship to Florence, worked with the Vatican workshop, where he helped restore Michelangelo's Pieta after its 1972 vandalism, and later settled in Santa Fe. He called his style "Emotional Realism." He is perhaps best known for his "bowed cross," which Pope John Paul II had placed atop his crozier, and for late religious series including the Stations of the Cross and the Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse. The Vail gallery opened in 2012 as his work's permanent home.
Is the gallery only Gib Singleton's work?
No. Singleton's bronzes are the core of the collection, but the gallery also represents Earl Biss, Carrie Fell, James Jensen, David Riley, Anke Schofield and the photographer David Yarrow, and it hosts rotating exhibitions drawn from its sister gallery's wider roster.
Does the gallery hold events?
Yes. It hosts short exhibitions, typically over two days, with the artist in attendance, often in the late afternoon and evening, several times a year, recent examples include Anke Schofield and DeVon, and some evenings are held jointly with Relevant Galleries. Check the Events page on the gallery's website for what is coming up.
Is there a related gallery?
Yes. Relevant Galleries Vail, on East Meadow Drive, is its sister gallery; together they form The Vail Galleries, curated by the AD Galleries family. Relevant leans contemporary, so the two make an easy pairing on one walk through the Village.
How do I contact the gallery?
Call (970) 476-4851 or email [email protected].
