PREMIER COMMERCIAL ART GALLERY IN DURBAN
Fine Art, Prints, Conservation Framing & Restorations
Celebrating almost five decades of passion and expertise, the Elizabeth Gordon Gallery is proudly nestled in an elegant Edwardian house on the bustling Florida Road. As one of KZN's premier commercial art galleries, we've curated a rich collection of original works, showcasing both the established and the emerging voices of South Africa's vibrant art scene.
Our gallery, while focusing on local talents, also embraces the diversity of the African continent, featuring captivating works from Sudan, Zimbabwe, eSwatini, and Mozambique.
Every art piece within our gallery is thoughtfully framed in our on-site workshop, where we merge conservation techniques with contemporary trends, tailoring each frame to best enhance and protect the art it carries. At Elizabeth Gordon Gallery, we strive to create a world where art and audience connect in a profound narrative of creativity and knowledge.
Featured Artworks
DAVID TOMLINSON
This wonderful piece of bronze sculpture of a Grey Heron "Serene Intent" from KZN's master sculptor is an important and a very special emotive work for all of us who love Dave Tomlinson and his works.
Dave, now in his eighties, is concentrating on his maquettes as he is finding the demands of producing large pieces a heavy challenge. So this heron is the last big piece Dave will be doing, ever.
We are privileged and honoured to have this important piece in the gallery. It is one of an edition of 4 - No.1 was sold in Johannesburg, No. 2 in Cape Town, and Elizabeth Gordon Gallery now has the third.
This is your last chance to acquire one of Dave's big sculptures.

About The Gallery
The Elizabeth Gordon Gallery stands proudly as a beacon of sophistication, culture, and artistic knowledge in KwaZulu-Natal. This leading commercial art gallery, birthed from the combined passion and foresight of Gordon Lowings and Elizabeth Johnstone in 1976, has served as a platform for both eminent and emerging artists for almost fifty years.
Its journey, much like the evocative tales told through the artworks it houses, has seen the Gallery inhabit various spaces in Morningside, Durban, reflecting the dynamism and vibrancy of the art world. Since 2002, the gallery has found its home within the elegant embrace of a historic Edwardian house, situated on the buzzing and fashionable Florida Road.
This unique location encapsulates the essence of the Elizabeth Gordon Gallery — a blend of rich tradition and progressive creativity, inviting patrons from all walks of life to discover, learn and connect with the compelling world of African art.
About the Owner
As the dynamic owner of Elizabeth Gordon Gallery since 2000, Joy Reynolds has been a central figure of the gallery's evolution since 1989, and has been instrumental in curating exhibitions and offering expert art consultations to clients in their homes and offices.
Joy's foray into the art world began at the young age of 23 at the original Neil Sack Gallery, formerly nestled at 490 West Street, Durban. This vibrant initiation provided an invaluable foundation for her future endeavors, as she absorbed the creative energy of the flamboyant Neil Sack and the sage wisdom of Gordon Lowings.
Life's journey took Joy from Durban to Johannesburg with her young family, even leading her abroad for a period. However, the magnetic pull of the art world guided her back to Durban in 1989.
Upon her return, the Elizabeth Gordon Gallery, founded by Gordon Lowings and Elizabeth Johnstone - another alumnus of the Neil Sack Gallery - had already established its reputation. When Gordon decided to retire and Elizabeth moved to the UK in 2000, Joy took the helm. With a deep respect for its legacy, she has proudly sustained the name of the esteemed Elizabeth Gordon Gallery.
Joy's passion and commitment to the world of art remains at the heart of the gallery's vision, cultivating a welcoming environment that inspires a deeper understanding and appreciation for African art.
