Studios open on the Noosa art trail

Peter Phillips is regarded as one of the preeminent British Pop Artists of our time and this year his gallery in Tinbeerwah has been opened as part of 2024 Noosa Open Studios.

His work ranges from oils on canvas to multi-media compositions and collages. As one of the originators of Pop Art, Peter got his start at the Royal College of Arts with his fellow students David Hockney, Allen Jones, R.B. Kitaj and others of the British Pop Art Movement. When he was awarded a Harkness Fellowship he moved to New York, where he exhibited his work alongside his American counterparts Andy Warhol, Roy Lichtenstein and James Rosenquist. Peter’s work can be seen in dozens of museums and galleries worldwide.

In 2017 Peter and his family relocated to Tinbeerwah in the Noosa Hinterland where he continued to work, with exhibitions in Japan, England, Zurich and the USA.

Peter’s art joins that of almost 100 artists who have opened their galleries and displayed their works for 10 days from Friday 30 August for the Noosa Open Studios Art Trail.

Over 10 days, art lovers, collectors and curious minds will have the unique opportunity to step inside the creative spaces of 92 talented local artists. From painters and sculptors to ceramicists and jewelers, the trail offers a rare glimpse into the heart of Noosa’s vibrant arts community.

This year’s event promises to be more inspiring than ever as there are 27 new artists.

Each artist will proudly display their large Noosa Open Studios flag and corflute at their studio’s entrance. These markers are your guide to discovering the incredible work of our registered artists on the official trail.

So grab your trail guide and join the art trail that began on Friday 30 August and finishes on 8 September.
