19 KAREN ARTSPACE

19 Karen Contemporary Artspace was launched as a commercial contemporary art gallery in August 2008.

The Gallery is dedicated to dis-covering cutting edge emerging Australian and International artists with exceptional and diverse talent to shock and excite you. Our stable of artists consists of emerging, mid-career and established artists.

The gallery showcases solo and group exhibitions 6 times a year. During our solo shows and open-ing nights, space permitted, our remaining artists are given the opportunity to have their work on display on rotating basis. Adjacent to the gallery is an extensive stockroom for private viewing.

You can also view our art at The Sofietl Hotel, Gold Coast on 3 levels.

Terri Lew is the director of 19 Karen.

Terri is committed to her vision of 19 Karen as a gallery that nurtures emerging contemporary artists giving them the opportunity to grow and prosper in their chosen field to become stronger in their practice and shine in their own unique an individual style.

Terri chooses art that reflects he own personal taste. Her advice for buying art remains the same.

“The most important thing is to buy art that you love. There are no guarantess that an artist will become successful but at least you will end up with something that you enjoy for many years to come.”
