Specialties
Mark's large scale paintings are primarily cityscapes of London, Paris and New York and Sydney, he has been recently commissioned to paint Sydney beaches, New York landmark buildings, portraits and nudes. Eclectic yet highly recognizable, no one else in the world is painting with the vigour, intelligence, technical brilliance, emotion and spirituality that Mark is producing. Paying homage to Brett Whiteley and with a style evocative of Jackson Pollock, Mark's style - large, brash, pop, beautiful - takes drip painting, and sensual curves to a new level.

History
Established in 2011.
Mark Hanham Gallery opened in February 2011. During its first year our Gallery established itself as a well-known cultural institution for crown Street, Surry Hills. The Gallery was established by the artist Mark Hanham and exhibits regularly changing shows of his iconic Cityscape paintings, which have been represented in national, international & cooperate collections around the world. It's rare to find an artist that is able to represent themselves so successfully, making the Gallery a unique model in Sydney. The gallery is open daily and has the current exhibitions, as well as detailed information about the artist on the website.
Meet the Business Owner: Mark Hanham H.
Born 1978 in Paddington Sydney, Australian Mark Hanham studied at National Art School then completed a Master's Degree in Art at the College of Fine Art. He has painted every day since he was fourteen years of age and is an extraordinarily successful commercial artist. In 2011 at the age of 33, he took the almost unprecedented step of opening his own gallery in Sydney's busy Crown Street Surry Hills, exhibiting only Mark Hanham Art. The gallery is in its third year and has defied economic downturns to become one of the most successful galleries in Sydney.
Mark this year will be travelling through Europe, gaining momentum for a Tuscan series and we are looking to stage a solo show in Singapore in October, through Art Index.
Mark's clients include Russell Crowe, Lionel Richie, Walker Corporation, Lisa McGuigan and many corporate and private collections nationally and internationally.
