Brett Whiteley Studio

Interior of the Brett Whiteley Studio

The Brett Whiteley Studio was the workplace, home and exhibition space of the Australian artist Brett Whiteley (1939-1992). The artist bought the former warehouse in 1985 and converted it into a studio and exhibition space, living there after further renovations from 1988 to 1992, the year he died in Thirroul.

The visitor is offered the unique opportunity to experience the atmosphere of the space - the studio with the unfinished paintings, art equipment, collections of reference books, the reference wall covered with quotes and images. The living area has memorabilia such as photographs, objects, postcards, furniture, music collection and sketchbooks. The gallery has changing exhibitions of the artist's works: paintings, drawings, sculpture and graphics borrowed from the Whiteley Estate, Art Gallery of New South Wales.
