Brett Whiteley Studio
The final home and workplace of the late Australian artist Brett Whiteley is now a museum that holds rotating exhibits of Whiteley’s work shown on weekends as well as monthly events such as poetry readings and classical music performances. The upstairs is frozen in time: dipped brushes are ready to create their next masterpiece; reference books are opened to the last page Whiteley saw; vinyl records sit waiting to be played. All of this plus a wall of photos, graffiti, and quotes from contemporaries like Bob Dylan paints an intimate portrait of an artistic genius who died of a methadone overdose in 1992. Entrance and events are free, and you don’t need to book ahead. Just show up ready to be inspired.More Recommendations

Whiteley's Legacy

Brett Whiteley Studio
Immerse yourself in the life and art of one of Australia's most acclaimed painters at this intimate, atmospheric gallery, the former home and studio of Brett Whiteley. The studio holds a treasure trove of the artist's ephemera: unfinished paintings, art equipment, collections of reference books and a graffiti wall covered with quotes and images. The living area, meanwhile, is a fascinating memorabilia-fest of photographs, postcards, furniture, records and sketchbooks. The gallery also mounts changing exhibitions of works on loan from the Whiteley Estate, Art Gallery of New South Wales and private collections.
