Stanley Street Gallery Information

Presenting critical and experimental work, we seek to give space to innovative and diverse practices that contribute to the local and international arts communities. Founded by Liza Feeney and Merilyn Bailey in 2012, Stanley Street Gallery has developed a reputation for championing early career artists and curators in the commercial sector. Each year we host a program of 12 exhibitions, which include painting, ceramic, sculpture, drawing, photography and contemporary wearables. Directors Feeney and Bailey met studying the Visual Arts at Sydney College of the Arts and since then have both individually pursued art making practices within the field of jewellery. This personal history lends to a distinctive appreciation and affinity with object-orientated practices, unique to the commercial gallery scene in Sydney. As a space for experimental work, we are interested in exploring and encouraging craft and art intersections and hybrid potentials, challenging the borders and definitions of medium and discipline. Stanley Street Gallery is the primary coordinator of Sydney East Art Walk and regularly hosts non-for-profit events like plays, poetry readings and book launches. Here at Stanley Street Gallery, we always ensure to deliver excellent advice and professional guidance to our clients in all matters involving investing, collecting, conserving and managing contemporary fine art.
