About The Gallery

Our mission, and commitment to supporting artists while connecting collectors, designers, and communities through art.

A Legacy of Art. A Contemporary Perspective.

With a legacy spanning nearly five decades, Savage Godfrey Gallery offers a contemporary approach to art consulting, curation, and collection development.

Grounded in experience, guided by perspective—art that feels personal, never overwhelming.

The Gallery

Founded in 1975 by Sunne Savage, the gallery began on Newbury Street in Boston and has evolved into a contemporary space on the South Shore. Today, Savage Godfrey Gallery continues that legacy with a refined focus on regional artists, curated exhibitions, and full-service art consulting.

We work across residential and commercial spaces, helping clients live and work with art in a way that feels natural, intentional, and enduring.

Our Approach

Art has the ability to shape how a space is experienced—and how it is remembered.

Our approach is both collaborative and highly considered. We look closely at the architecture, the environment, and the people within it, guiding each decision with clarity, experience, and a distinct point of view. From first concept through final installation, every detail is handled with care.

Sunne Savage, Founder

Sunne Savage founded the original gallery in 1975 following her work with the Institute of Contemporary Art, Boston. Over the course of her career, she has advised collectors on significant acquisitions and curated exhibitions of American and European masterworks.

Her expertise in fine art appraisal and decades of experience continue to shape the gallery’s foundation and perspective.

Every project is approached with intention, perspective, and a deep respect for the role art plays in how we live.
