Andrew Browne is a Melbourne based Australian artist, born 1960. He works across painting, photography and graphic mediums including drawing, photogravure, intaglio and lithography. As well he has recently re-engaged with sculpture.

Since the 1980’s he has developed a visual language drawn from both the natural and the man-made environment - often through formalist collisions of style and subject - with a specific interest in the phenomena of illumination, the poetics of the nocturne and happenchance of the everyday, and to quote the artist '...a landscape alienated from the picturesque'. Often teasing an uncanny, strange or surreal mood, his work highlights both artificiality and subjectivity. As such his practise emerges from a series of relationships that encompass direct observation, imaginative play and free association, a debt to the photographic, and the historical and contemporary parameters of painting and art history more generally - variously suggesting our at times ambiguous, bewildering and contradictory place within an evolving environment.
