Immerse yourself in art created outside the square

The Ivy Box is a contemporary art gallery located at 134 Park Street, Queenstown.

Founded and curated by Lynda Hensman in 2015, the gallery features fresh, gritty and unconventional contemporary art by New Zealand artists.

In September 2021, the gallery re-opens after an extensive renovation project, which saw the ancient walls of the town’s original butcher’s shop preserved and incorporated into a modern gallery and artists’ residence space.

The gallery continues to be a leader in contemporary art that’s created ‘outside the square’ in Queenstown, New Zealand.

“The Ivy Box is a venue for authentic art that’s created with passion. The artists on board all have the same passionate dedication to their art – they create from the heart and are ‘outside the square’ in terms of approach and thinking. I’ve hand-picked them for that reason.

“While the landscape outside is beautiful, you won’t find traditional landscape art inside. The gallery space is a home for art that stimulates all the senses – there’s grit, contrast and passion in all of it.”

– Gallery Founder and Director Lynda Hensman
