With a painting itinerary like that extending for over a year, it's no wonder his work has been difficult to get.

Suffice to say his work is hard to come by and this latest collection was worth the wait. On the evening of August 13th from 5:30pm these new works will be on display and available to purchase at our opening cocktail party.</p><p>We are holding this exhibition at our Gallery in the Sofitel Wentworth Hotel (Foyer Level). We host most of our major exhibitions in our Bligh Street Gallery so this will be an opportunity for many of our regular exhibition attendees to see one of our other spaces. The Gallery at the Wentworth Hotel was our first, opened about 15 years ago. It will be lovely to host an exhibition there again.<br></p><p>Palla will be there to discuss his work and everyone is welcome.

Gav Barbey is the latest addition to the Wentworth Galleries stable of Australian Artists and we couldn't be more excited about it.</p><p> I had the absolute pleasure of visiting Gav recently in his studio and within seconds of walking in the door and seeing a few of his works, I was planning a new exhibition. He really is that good.<br /></p><p>Talking with him about his paintings really gives you a sense of his personal attachment to these pieces. It's easy to tell that he puts everything he has into these works, and it shows. He is incredibly talented but there is more to it. There's that something extra that comes from a real commitment to a vision.</p><p>Gav has amassed a large body of extraordinary work over the last couple of years that has not yet been released for public viewing. We will be showing these paintings at a new exhibition at our 17 Bligh Street Gallery. Opening night is Wednesday the 25th of June and the exhibiton will run until the 11th of July.
