Christine Abrahams Gallery is located in the Melbourne inner city suburb of Richmond, at 27 Gipps Street, Richmond on the corner of Clifton Street. The Gallery building, once a clothing factory, was converted to its present form by architect Daryl Jackson in 1980.
Christine Abrahams Gallery exhibits works of quality and innovation by contemporary artists. The Gallery's policy is to show a broad spectrum of the visual arts including painting, drawing, sculpture, prints, jewellery, textiles, photography and ceramics. The Gallery primarily represents a core of prominent and emerging Australian artists whose work is regularly exhibited.
To promote a dialogue between Australian art and art from abroad, the Gallery holds exhibitions of work by overseas artists. The Gallery also shows the work of Australian artists overseas and exhibitions have been held in Italy, the United Kingdom and the United States, both at galleries and at international art fairs as well as at the Australian Contemporary Art Fair in Melbourne.
Since 1982, Roslyn Oxley9 Gallery has been committed to the advancement of the most serious and innovative forms of contemporary art.
Through its exhibition program the gallery has supported work that is challenging and at the forefront of contemporary art practice. The gallery has always featured new work in a range of media, from painting and sculpture to photography, performance, installation, video and other electronic media arts.
The gallery has always followed a policy of nurturing artists through their careers, acting as a primary dealer for their work. Opening with a group of largely unknown artists, the gallery has consistently seen its stable develop into some of Australia's most renowned practitioners. The gallery currently represents over thirty highly esteemed artists, who have had significant shows and whose works are held in major collections nationally and internationally.
This year Solander celebrates it's 31st Anniversary as the longest established fine arts gallery in the National Capital, Canberra.
The gallery has played a pivotal role in introducing important Australian painters and sculptors to the national capital, as well as showcasing works from Australian and overseas artists. This year Solander opened with an exhibition of Australian Masters spanning over 100 years of Australian visual arts history.
