Based on Gertrude Street in Melbourne’s Fitzroy, Art & Collectors connects collectors with art they love. We are inspired by the Salons of twentieth-century Europe, presenting an evolving hang of collectable Australian modern and contemporary art, ever-expanding stockroom and suite of Collection Services

Our Director, Angela Tandori, has been an art market specialist for over 25 years with experience as an art consultant, valuer, auctioneer, speaker and curator. She has been an Executive Member of the Art Consulting Association of Australia (ACAA) for over seven years, four of which she served as President, is a registered ACAA valuer and a current certified practicing valuer with the Auctioneers and Valuers Association of Australia.

    

 

Art & Collectors is founded on the belief that art lives through those who collect it. Since 2001, we’ve helped art lovers become custodians of fine art — fostering connections built on integrity and longevity. We seek out art for its stories, championing serendipity, discovery and sustainable collecting, in turn nurturing the relationship between art and collectors. 

Whether you're an emerging or seasoned collector, based in Melbourne or beyond, we can help expand, hone and manage your collection.

 

About the Space

Art & Collectors is open to visitors Monday through Saturday, 10 to 4pm, and by appointment 7 days a week. We live at Level 1, 165 Gertrude Street, Fitzroy between Porter’s Paints and The Signet Bureau. 

The space is designed to encourage a more intimate relationship with art. Collectors are invited to engage with what catches their eye, peruse art books and converse. Our collection is eclectic and the space ever-evolving, meaning that no visit will be the same. 

Gertrude Street is an artery of Melbourne’s cultural life. Connecting the city’s oldest suburb, Fitzroy, with its arts precinct of Collingwood, the vibrant enclave has always possessed a renegade spirit. Today’s Gertrude Street is lined with an array of food, fashion and art. Come for us, stay for a while.

Our History

Art & Collectors began life as Angela Tandori Fine Art in 2001. Then a roving auction house that moved between coastal Noosa, inland Canberra and down to Lorne in Victoria, we eventually took residence at a mansion in Prahran. The next stage saw us open a gallery in East Melbourne and then Collingwood’s Smith Street, before rebranding as Art & Collectors in 2021 and moving to our current home on Fitzroy’s Gertrude Street. 


“We are thrilled to have received our painting late this afternoon. Thanks to your good packaging it arrived safe and sound. You are right, the painting is wonderful and we’re very happy to have it. Thank you also for your professionalism throughout our sale. Appreciated.”
