About The Gite Gallery
The gallery features beautiful and unique art and artifacts that include original paintings, hand-carved wooden statues, bronze sculptures, tribal masks and hats, brightly colored textiles, select vintage accent furniture, and more, all from sub-Saharan Africa.
Located in a charming two-story brick house, built in 1943, The Gite Gallery has been described as one of the most elegant galleries in the United States. Owner and curator, Lloyd Gite, takes great pride in the fact that the gallery is decorated to look more like a home than a typical “white-walled” gallery.
Lloyd Gite’s love of African art can be traced back to his childhood when he always had an intuitive fascination with the continent. Lloyd’s former career in television journalism led him to travel extensively throughout Africa, Asia, Europe, the Middle East, and the Caribbean. Having been to Africa over 35 times, Lloyd recalls how he became the prominent African art dealer that he is today, “I made my first trip in 1976 and immediately fell in love with Africa and was particularly fond of its art. Later, while working as a TV reporter, I began to make regular trips and soon began collecting and selling art out of my home. This passion for African art eventually evolved into The Gite Gallery,” he says.
