With deep industry knowledge and an extensive network across the contemporary art and design landscape, IVY RC. delivers a personalised, end-to-end service spanning collection development and curatorial advisory, design consultation, procurement, installation and ongoing stewardship.

Founder and Director Ivy Rose Ritchens brings hands-on experience across commercial galleries, client advisory and collection management, underpinned by a rigorous curatorial perspective and close market knowledge. A committed advocate for emerging talent, Ivy actively champions the next generation of Australian and New Zealand artists.

PROJECT 02 by IVY RC. is a digital platform and curatorial program connecting new-generation collectors with early-career Australian and New Zealand artists. Focused on contemporary practice, it offers a considered and transparent pathway to discovering and acquiring original art.
