About Art By The Sea

Art by the Sea is an art gallery at 162 Hurstmere Road in Takapuna, Auckland, selling original paintings, sculptures, photography and multimedia work by New Zealand artists, both new and established. It was founded in 1991 in the Duders building in Devonport and moved to Takapuna in 2021. The owners, Mike and Linda Geers, bought the business in 2001. The gallery holds solo and group shows every four to six weeks, usually opening on a Saturday with an artist talk.

The gallery also offers conservation framing, picture hanging and sculpture installation through its sister business, Straight Up Art Installation, as well as art collection advice, cleaning and restoration, packing for moves and valuations for insurance. Gallery Director Mike Geers brings more than 30 years' experience to the advice.
