Central Coast Arts & Art Galleries
Ken Duncan Gallery
Ken Duncan is well known as the pioneer of Limited Edition Photographic Art in Australia. After a visit to New York in the early 1980’s, Ken returned home with a dream to have photography widely accepted as an art form in this country.
The increasing number of Australian photographers now emulating his panoramic style and finding a market for their work is testimony to Ken’s success.
Neale Joseph
Renowned for his exquisite landscape works, Neale Joseph is an award winning contemporary Australian artist.
His trademark coastal works are a personal rendition of Neale’s affinity with the sea, influenced by the Central Coast area where he spent all his recreational time growing up at the family holiday home. Neale captures the beauty of this diverse country with vibrant colours and a unique interpretation that flows from the heart.
