Nestled in the heart of Sydney’s North Shore suburb of Pymble, KAB Gallery Sydney beckons art aficionados from Manly, Balgowlah, Newport, Avalon, Palm Beach and beyond to explore its curated collection of contemporary original artworks. While our Sydney gallery may not overlook the sands of Manly Beach or those other iconic locations themselves, we proudly offer a diverse array of artworks capturing the essence and allure of these coastal havens.
Among our highlights is a captivating oil painting by acclaimed Australian artist Greg Jarmaine, depicting the vibrant energy of the Manly Corso in his signature contemporary impressionist style. Rendered in this exquisite style which hints at the forms and features of the landscape, this stunning portrayal of the Manly Corso invites viewers to imagine themselves wandering through the bustling Corso, soaking in the beachside atmosphere of this beloved Northern Beaches landmark. It is framed to perfection and ready to hang in your space now.
The Manly Corso, steeped in rich history dating back to its establishment in 1854 by Henry Gilbert Smith, continues to attract visitors with its unique blend of seaside charm and urban sophistication. From surf shops to cafes with regular markets and street performers, the Manly Corso offers a delightful array of experiences for locals and tourists alike. So many people have memories of visiting the place, it seems to be a location where everyone has been at least once! Memories of meandering along its pedestrian-friendly precinct under the iconic palm trees, encountering the eateries, ice-cream shop, and an eclectic mix of boutiques that reflect the vibrant spirit of Manly’s beachside culture.
We welcome you to step into our gallery at 977 Pacific Highway Pymble and view it for yourself alongside many other Manly paintings by other beloved Australian artists. Other fine examples include Sally West’s lusciously thick oil paintings of Manly Beach, the iconic Manly Pines, or the Manly Ferry weaving its way through The Heads.
Whether you’re a seasoned art collector looking to add a new piece to your home or are a casual observer in search of inspiration, KAB Gallery Sydney proudly exhibits a beautiful ever-changing exhibition of coveted Australian art. Visit in person Wednesday – Saturday, or join us for one of our exhibition events after hours. You can register your interest to attend these events here.
