OLSEN Gallery

Gallery founder Tim Olsen has cultivated a stable of artists that he feels presents a comprehensive and poignant view of the contemporary arts in Australia. With a continually changing exhibition calendar we showcase the work of both emerging and established artists. We have nurtured the careers of artists from their first exhibition out of art school and proudly see them now as leading lights in the Australian art scene. Foremost in the gallery's stable is the late John Olsen, who is today regarded as one of Australia's most esteemed artists of all time. In addition to the staging of countless critically acclaimed exhibitions the gallery has hosted the launch of many books devoted to his unique and ingenious art making. Tim has also negotiated the sale of some of the most significant paintings in Olsen's oeuvre to both private and institutional collections. Tim's enthusiasm for curated projects has inspired the designated ANNEXE space, which now resides directly behind the main gallery at 74 Queen Street, Woollahra.
