The Brett Whiteley Studio has been managed as a museum by the Art Gallery of New South Wales since 1995.
The studio was the workplace and home of Australian artist Brett Whiteley (1939–92). The artist bought the former warehouse in 1985 and converted it into a studio and exhibition space. He lived there from 1987 to 1992, the year he died in Thirroul, south of Sydney.
Visitors are offered the unique opportunity to experience the atmosphere of the space – the studio with his unfinished paintings, art equipment and collections of reference books, and the graffiti wall covered with quotes and images.
