BORN 1953 Melbourne
STUDIES
Chef
Background
Gordon Richards eventually established a career as a chef an by the time he left Melbourne he was recognised as one of the most innovative chefs in Victoria. He was highly acclaimed for the farming of his own escargot, yabbies and organically grown herbs and produce which were presented in flamboyant style on the menus at The Eagle Hawk Restaurant, Maldon and the Shamrock Hotel, Bendigo.
In the early 90’s his passion for drawing and painting and his artistic talents and energy were re-channelled… and so began his extraordinary career as an artist. The Result was the emergence of an instinctive style producing bold, humorous yet poignant reflections of the human form in all its frailty.

Harvey Galleries was founded by the Harvey family in 1994 with an eye to establish a dynamic and inclusive contemporary art space on the North Shore of Sydney. For almost three decades we have expanded our reach to over three gallery locations and an ever expanding stable of the best artists Australia has to offer.
Harvey Galleries acknowledges the traditional custodians of the lands upon which our galleries stand. The Guringai people (Seaforth), the Gadigal people of the Eora Nation (Sydney), and the Bunurong Boon Wurrung and Wurundjeri Woi Wurrung peoples of the Eastern Kulin Nation (Melbourne).
We pay our respect to Elders past and present.
Always be the first to know about exhibitions, events and new art releases.
