About the Collection
The Galbreath Collection: A Decade of Collecting Atlanta chronicles an extraordinary journey through Atlanta's vibrant art scene. For over ten years, George and Esohe Galbreath have intentionally built a collection that does more than fill walls—it preserves Atlanta's visual culture and proves that meaningful collecting is accessible to all.
The Collectors' Story
George and Esohe Galbreath are more than collectors, they're cultural preservationists. Their mission extends beyond acquiring art; they're building bridges between artists and future collectors while documenting Atlanta's artistic legacy.
As founders of Sohé Solutions, they combine their passion for art with practical business acumen to support artists and collectors alike. Their collection, now comprising nearly 200 pieces, stands as testament to their commitment to making art collecting accessible and meaningful.
Featured Artists
Fine Art Painter & Illustrator
Miya Bailey
The Galbreaths own multiple pieces by Miya Bailey, including a self-portrait from his first solo show at Magic Gallery and "Ghetto Children Dreaming" from a later exhibit. Bailey's work has special significance as he has been a friend and advisor to the Galbreaths in their collecting journey.
Artist & Educator
Kevin Cole
Kevin Cole created the very first piece in the Galbreaths' collection. As a mentor to them in both collecting and artistry, acquiring his work felt particularly meaningful. For their 11th anniversary, the Galbreaths commissioned a special copper piece titled "Shared Passion."
Artist, Designer & Creative Director
Ruby Chavez
The Galbreaths purchased "The Woman with the Head Wrap" from Ruby Chavez at a holiday pop-up event. They even commissioned a similar work for Esohe's sister. Collecting Chavez's work represents the Galbreaths' mission to inspire other collectors, especially in the Black community.
Contemporary Marker Illustrator
TOM Davii
TOM Davii created a provocative, abstract piece depicting Atlanta's iconic Magic City strip club. The Galbreaths felt purchasing Davii's work represented growth in their collecting journey, as they moved from figurative art to more abstract representations.
