Since 1994, the Eric Firestone Gallery has exhibited comprehensive collections of fine art and furniture from the late 19th and early to mid 20th centuries. American Modernist and Regional artworks are paired with exceptional examples of American Arts and Crafts furniture, decorative objects and lighting. The gallery, set in two historic Josias Joesler designed adobes, offers visitors a unique sense of a 1930s era Tucson and provides an intimate environment for the ever changing exhibits that have garnered the Eric Firestone Gallery a national reputation.
Deeply connected to the artists who lived and worked in Arizona, the gallery continually explores the desert southwest through paintings, sculptures and works on paper created in and inspired by the Sonoran landscape. Works by Maynard Dixon, Hurlstone Fairchild, Edith Hamlin, Lon Magargee, Jack Van Ryder and others, tell stories of a different time and exemplify the rugged individualism and determination specific to artists of the region. Firmly committed to investigating American Modernism and its movement west, the gallery has featured the work of Lew Davis, Philip C. Curtis, Douglas Denniston and other regional painters who have mined the desert's abstract and surreal elements in their discovery of a definitive and highly personal vision of the American west. Fine examples of Mexican, Latin American, early California Plein-Aire and New Mexican Modernist paintings help to create a thorough understanding of the social and artistic concerns of the entire Southwest over the last century.
