Fascinating Insight Into the Creative Mind
布雷特·怀特利工作室博物馆的点评
点评：A fascinating space and a wonderful insight into the creative world of Brett Whiteley.
This former warehouse was both home and working studio for Whiteley from 1987 - 1992. Left untouched after his death, the upstairs level includes unfinished works, paints, brushes and all sorts of painting tools.
Drips and splashes of paint mark the floorboards and one wall is covered in handwritten quotes and images and scribbled musings. He filled his space with assorted and seemingly random odds and ends that caught his eye and inspired him - shells, seed pods, binoculars, books, a cricket ball. If you have any interest in the artistic process, it’s a must.
Downstairs is more like a conventional gallery and is currently displaying an exhibition ‘Chapters 1959–69’, a collection of his works made between the ages of 20 and 30, a period of intense travel and artistic experimentation. It includes his disturbing Christie works, the London Zoo works as well as paintings from his time in New York and Fiji.
It’s not a big gallery so you probably only need to allow an hour. However the exhibitions change from time to time so it’s worth a repeat visit.
Staff were very helpful. They gave us a brief introduction and were on hand to give more information whenever needed.
The studio is a little out of the way, in a small back street in Surry Hills. We walked from Central Station and it took about 15 minutes. Even when we arrived, we didn’t spot the building immediately because it is an unobtrusive, plain brown colour.
NOTE: Entry is free and there’s no need to book ahead. However it is only open Thursday - Sunday.

翻译：一个迷人的空间和对布雷特·怀特利创意世界的精彩洞察。
从 1987 年到 1992 年，这座前仓库既是怀特利的家，又是他的工作室。在他去世后，楼上没有受到任何影响，包括未完成的作品、颜料、画笔和各种绘画工具。
地板上留下了油漆滴落和飞溅的痕迹，一面墙上贴满了手写的引言、图像和潦草的思考。他的空间里堆满了各种看似随意的杂物，这些东西引起了他的注意并激发了他的灵感——贝壳、种子荚、双筒望远镜、书籍、板球。如果您对艺术过程感兴趣，这是必须的。
楼下更像是一个传统的画廊，目前正在举办展览“Chapters 1959-69”，收藏了他在20岁至30岁之间创作的作品，这是一个密集的旅行和艺术实验时期。其中包括他令人不安的克里斯蒂作品、伦敦动物园作品以及他在纽约和斐济时期的画作。
这不是一个大画廊，所以你可能只需要一个小时。不过，展览会不时变化，所以值得重复参观。
工作人员非常乐于助人。他们向我们做了简短的介绍，并在需要时随时提供更多信息。
工作室有点偏僻，在Surry Hills的一条小后街上。我们从中央车站步行过来，大约需要15分钟。即使我们到达时，我们也没有立即发现这座建筑，因为它是一种不引人注目的纯棕色。
注意：入场免费，无需提前预订。但仅周四至周日开放。
