Sydney offers plenty of historical and contemporary Australian flavor. The marvelous Sydney Opera House looks like a great origami sailboat, floating peacefully in a harbor. Wander the narrow cobblestone streets of The Rocks and then take in a street performance on the Circular Quay before heading into the Museum of Contemporary Art. The views from the Sydney Tower Eye observatory are epic – use this chance to get to know the layout of the city from high above.

This is such a lovely gallery/shop to visit. I wanted to buy an authentic, beautifully crafted didgeridoo for my brother's wedding present, and I certainly wasn't disappointed. The manager told me all about the didgeridoos, and gave me a fantastic demonstration on what they sounded like. I shipped a very fancy didgeridoo (serpent carved into a knot in the wood) back to the UK, and my brother was so happy with it. Thank you! It makes such a difference to know about the artist and see genuine talent. I will be back!

Attended Ray and Maria’s galleries for some years. There is the one in Sofitel and No. One Martin Place (in the old GPO building). No pressure to purchase. Fantastic collection of art work; some of Australia’s greatest artists and Indigenous artists. Well worth a visit just to see what is going on and take a breather from CBD and its intensity; or to chat about the latest trends. Wentworth Gallery: Sydney institution. And if you’re visiting Australia, you can pick up a piece of Indigenous art far cheaper than you’d imagine. It’lll fit in your suitcase and you will have a unique reminder of your happy days in Australia. Philip Sutherland

CWM Galleries represent artists who conceive and create works of beauty, providing pleasure and insight to their fellow man. In our view there is enough ugliness in this world without artists contributing to it.We totally reject the concept of elitism and the pretensions that so often inhibit people in approaching and enjoying art.A red dot on a white canvas will always be a red dot on a white canvas, an installation of underwear on the floor will always be underwear on the floor. I suspect I could even create these 'works of art' myself.Back in the 1990's we set out to change that and to-day CWM Galleries are regarded by many as Australia's premier commercial sculpture galleries. The sculptures we exhibit are created in classical and lasting materials, a legacy for future generations.You are invited to judge the level of skill required to conceive and create the wonderful and lasting works we exhibit. CWM Galleries constantly exhibit up to 180 sculptures and 200 paintings by Contemporary Australian Artists.The artists creating these works include both award winning artists and highly regarded teachers of their craft.CWM Galleries provides sponsorship and/or manages a number of our artists. Many of the works displayed are exclusive to our galleries.We urge you to acquire works of art that you really love and welcome your next visit to CWM Galleries.
