CRISS CANNING

Criss Canning

Smith & Singer are delighted to present our third solo-exhibition of paintings by renowned Australian artist, Criss Canning. Vibrant, meticulous and alluring, Canning’s still life subjects are widely and appropriately celebrated by public and private collectors around the world. Born in Melbourne, Canning has lived in various parts of Victoria, New South Wales and Greece, and now calls the region near Ballarat home. Although an accomplished landscape and portrait painter, it is still life and interior subjects that have become her primary source of inspiration and acclaimed subjects. 

Canning’s works are held in the permanent collections of the National Gallery of Australia, Canberra; Art Gallery of New South Wales, Sydney; Art Gallery of Ballarat, Ballarat; Castlemaine Art Museum, Castlemaine; Cairns Art Gallery, Cairns; Artbank, Melbourne; and numerous private collections in Australia, Canada, France, Hong Kong, Singapore, United Kingdom, and the United States of America.

A remarkable Australian contemporary artist who continues to beguile, challenge and inspire, Smith & Singer is honoured to present this exhibition in our Melbourne galleries this November and December. 

Criss Canning is open to the public at 14-16 Collins Street, Melbourne, from 24 November to 17 December 2022, 10 am to 5 pm, Monday to Saturday.
