I established JARVIS DOONEY in 2013 together with my wife (Christy Jarvis) as a platform for contemporary photographers associated with Australia and New Zealand to gain exposure and build their audiences in Europe. The gallery programme is made up of both established photographers and emerging artists we believe in and feel would benefit from the international exposure. Our first exhibition was Between Worlds from one of Australia's contemporary photographic artists Polixeni Papapetrou. Since then our exhibitions have been primarily curated group shows built around a specific theme, for example Typologies, Abstraction and Performance - which gave emerging artists the opportunity to be presented with their more established contemporaries; and the curated aspect made the exhibitions more accessible to German audiences not yet familiar with the artists and their work.The group exhibition format has also allowed us to build relationships with new artists and continue to work together. The emerging artists that we have continued to collaborate with since establishing the gallery are Kate Robertson, Clare Rae, David Charles Collins and Jacqueline Ball more recently we've exhibited work from Nina Ross, Sophie Dumaresq, Lin Wei and James Tylor.In 2015 we participated in the inaugural Photo London art fair, under our previous name Galerie Pavlova and in 2016 we presented two exhibitions as part of the 7th European Month of Photography Berlin.
