Ken Done: Paintings You Probably Haven't Seen

Ken Done: Paintings You Probably Haven't Seen is a must-see summer exhibition by one of Australia's most iconic artists, now showing at Redcliffe Art Gallery until January 22, 2022.

Bringing together a rare collection of previously unseen works selected by Done and the Ken Done Gallery, the surprising and brilliant touring exhibition celebrates the vibrancy of the Australian landscape.

The stunning artworks represent many of the artist’s favourite and best-loved subjects; the beach, the reef, and portraiture, as well as his own personal environment – his garden and cabin studio in Sydney.

‘These paintings were all done since the year 2000. They are sometimes works done on location or sometimes in the studio. And some are just what was in my imagination.’
