praxis Artspace is an independently run contemporary gallery located in Bowden, just outside the Adelaide CBD. Established in August 2015 by Artistic Director Patty Chehade, the Gallery takes its name from the ancient Greek philosopher’s word ‘praxis’ – promoting the act of engaging, applying, exercising, realising or practicing thoughts and ideas.
As a curated exhibition space, Praxis assists and supports distinctive contemporary ventures by Australian artists at all stages of their career, providing art collectors and buyers with the opportunity to purchase artworks at the forefront of contemporary practice.
The gallery aims to provide a program of exhibitions that includes painting, sculpture, installation art, performance, film and artist talks. Its adjacent studios offer an opportunity for resident artists to immerse themselves in their field of practice.
