THIS IS NO FANTASY was established in 2010 by Dianne Tanzer and Nicola Stein. Our dynamic annual program of solo shows, curated exhibitions, and artist projects are complemented by our focus on off-site exhibitions and regular participation in international art fairs and public projects. The gallery is a dynamic platform to promote and exhibit contemporary artists in Australia and internationally. It reflects the passion and innovation for which Tanzer and Stein are known and builds on their wealth of knowledge and experience.
