Everywhen Art was established by art writers, researchers, curators and gallerists Susan McCulloch OAM and Emily McCulloch Childs as a branch of the art company McCulloch & McCulloch. Established in 2003 to write, produce and publish the 4th edition of the major reference book McCulloch's Encylopedia of Australian Art, the mother and daughter team of McCulloch & McCulloch grew to be a multi-faceted art company.
Our programme encompasses art book publishing - including the McCulloch's own titles - the Encyclopedia of Australian Art and the best-selling McCulloch's Contemporary Aboriginal Art: the complete guide, as well art diaries, books on private collections and those in partnership with leading First Nations' community-based art centres. We are also curators of public and private gallery exhibitions, speakers and commentators on Australian art (specialising in First Nations art), judges of major art prizes and awards and initiators of social enterprise projects and fundraising initiatives. Read more about these and other initatives in Partnerships & Projects.
We have been exhibiting Australian First Nations' art from our home/gallery Whistlewood on the Mornington Peninsula and in other locations since 2009 and ran Everywhen Artspace at Flinders, Mornington Peninsula from December 2018 to October 2023 before reloacting back to our home gallery Whistlewood in January 2024.
The gallery is named "Everywhen" in tribute to the anthropologist W.E.H Stanner who, in his 1953 essay 'The Dreaming' in describing the nature of time as it relates to the Aboriginal belief system, said 'One cannot "fix" The Dreaming in time, it was and is everywhen."
Our exhibitions are accompanied by comprehensive catalogues featuring works from more than 30 Aboriginal-owned art centres, as well as a number of independent artists. In tandem with ever changing displays and exhibitions, we present unique Art Parades, curator’s and artists’ talks. Each piece is accompanied by an informative certificate of authenticity. Whether you’re looking for that one special piece or to start or enhance your collection, acquiring fine pieces of the culturally rich art of Aboriginal Australia has never been easier or more pleasurable.
