Jamie Boyd, the Boyd family important artist (19 November 1948 - 31 October 2025)
 

The enduring friendship between Galeria Aniela and the legendary Boyd family has been a defining force in our professional journey, marking over three decades of collaboration and shared artistic vision.

Arthur Boyd's legacy remains a focal point in the Australian art world. Our relationship with the legendary Arthur Boyd began in 1995. It has been a true privilege to nurture this friendship and host numerous exhibitions of the Boyd’s family profound work.
 

 

Current Highlights and Representation:

  • Jamie Boyd (1948–2025): We deeply mourn the passing of Jamie Boyd, the son of Arthur and Yvonne Boyd. We continue to celebrate Jamie Boyd legacy as one of the family's most important international artists, honoring him as a paramount figure in their history.
     

  • Ongoing Exhibitions and Support: 2025-2026, Galeria Aniela continues to champion the Boyd family's legacy, recently supporting the landmark 2025 summer exhibition, The Hidden Line: Art of the Boyd Women, held at Bundanon.

    Dear Aniela,
    I am writing to thank you for all your support for the launch of
    The Hidden Line: Art of the Boyd Women, myself and the team at Bundanon are very grateful to you for all your help in making such a significant exhibition possible.
