An exhibition surveying the last 50 years of the Ann Thomson's artistic practice showing at SH Ervin Gallery, Sydney from 2nd January 2024 and then Orange Regional Gallery from 7 December 2024.
Ann Thomson is a Brisbane-born, Sydney-based painter and sculptor known for her vibrant, expressive compositions and inventive use of unconventional materials including tar paper.
Often described as abstract, Ann Thomson rejects this label as her works are drawn from visual memories of places and things; “I might abstract something, but I don't just paint shapes.”
Since graduating from the National Art School in 1962 she has held countless solo and group exhibitions throughout Australia and overseas.
Thomson has won a number of prizes, including the Wynne Prize, Tattersalls Art Prize, the Kedumba Drawing Prize and the 2002 Geelong Contemporary Art Prize.
Her work is included in many important collections such as Art Gallery of New South Wales, Queensland Art Gallery, Newcastle Regional Art Gallery, Thyssen-Bornemisza Collection, Madrid and Villa Haiss Museum, Germany.

S.H. Ervin Gallery, Sydney
