INSIDE THE GALLERY (AUSTRALIA) - THE GALLERIST AND THE ARTIST

LON Gallery in Melbourne began as a project space in 2016 based on a non-profit model that primarily supported emerging artists. The gallery established it's formal program in 2019, which provided the opportunity to work with a select number of artists in depth and to foster the critical development of their practices.

At Sydney Contemporary in 2024,  LON gallerist Adam Stone devoted their stand entirely to the work of Devi Seetharam, paintings that reflect a world where men wield the authority to occupy public space, while women are reduced to symbolic figures of beauty and desire.

In this episode, anthropologist and curator Pedram Khosronejad investigates the connection between gallerist and artist, seeking to uncover the unique qualities that draw them together.
