I think you can start gnome without a dm, by putting "exec gnome-
session" in .xinitrc. Now how to only start gnome-shell, I am not sure.
This is what I use:
$ cat .xinitrc
session=${2:-xfce}
dbus="dbus-launch --exit-with-session"
ck="ck-launch-session dbus-launch --exit-with-session"
case $session in
fluxbox ) exec startfluxbox ;;
icewm ) exec icewm-session ;;
openbox ) exec openbox-session ;;
sawfish ) exec sawfish ;;
kde5|plasma ) exec $dbus /opt/kf5/bin/startplasma-x11 ;;
xfce|xfce4 ) exec $dbus startxfce4 ;;
lxde ) exec ck-launch-session startlxde ;;
lxqt ) $dbus /opt/lxqt/bin/startlxqt ;;
lxqt2 ) exec /opt/lxqt/bin/startlxqt ;;
gnome ) $dbus /usr/bin/gnome-session ;;
twm ) xterm -g 80x40+0+0 &
xclock -g 100x100-0+0 &
twm

# No known session, just say so
*) echo "Cannot run $1" ;;
