Brett Whiteley Studio

The artist's former Surry Hills workplace preserves paintings, drawings, books and studio materials in the rooms where Brett Whiteley lived and worked.

Brett Whiteley Studio

Why go

The studio offers a more intimate encounter with Whiteley's practice than a conventional gallery display. Unfinished work, tools, photographs and collected objects reveal the working environment behind familiar images, while changing exhibitions draw connections across his career. Limited opening days make this a planned stop rather than a casual addition to a central itinerary.

What to look for

  • Paint-splashed surfaces and studio tools preserve evidence of the artist's working process.
  • Changing displays combine finished works with photographs, sketches and personal material.

Useful to know

  • Confirm opening days before travelling to Surry Hills.
  • Allow about an hour and pair the studio with nearby streets or Central Station.
