Australia’s The Age spoke Tim Olsen, the Sydney art dealer and son of John Olsen, who has two galleries in Sydney and is planning to open a third in New York’s Nolita neighborhood:
“With so many of my artists selling over here online, and with my sister’s [designer Louise Olsen] Dinosaur Designs shop going great guns after 10 years in New York, add to that our combined contacts, and I feel confident it would do well,” Olsen said from Miami, where he was exhibiting Sydney artist Martine Emdur whose underwater nudes series were selling strongly.
“I have an experienced, great girl living in New York to run the gallery and other international artists who will exhibit with us. It won’t be a marsupial, Aussie-artists-only gallery,” Olsen said.
