The Mosman Art Gallery is pleased to present a unique exhibition which showcases the colourful characters who populate Australia’s art scene. In this series of portraits, professional photographer Gary Grealy captures some of the most unique individuals of Australia’s art world. This world inhabited by the talented, strong, generous and at times eccentric characters of art patrons, gallery directors, art lovers and artists is portrayed as a carefully constructed and realised universe with film noir overtones.
From the doyens of public and private galleries such as Edmund Capon, Frank Watters and Geoffery Legge, art patrons and collectors, Gene Sherman, John Kaldor and Dr John Yu to renowned artists Adam Cullen, Jenny Sages, Robert Klippel and Jia Wei Shen, Grealy has followed his passion for recording these important contributors to Australia’s cultural heritage. Gary Grealy has been a frequent finalist in the National Photographic Portrait Prize at the National Portrait Gallery and his work has been collected by the NPG and National Gallery of Australia.

Head On in a day
Australia's world-leading photography festival once again filters photography down to its finest.
The great thing is that Head On's main venues at Bondi and Paddington are just a bus ride away.
