Our Story

Who is The FTSQ Gallery

FTSQ stands for F*** The Status Quo.
We aren’t anarchists, we’re maverick, non-conformists and it’s our belief that the business of fine art currently functions in an outdated and uninspiring way.

We want to shake s*** up and do things differently.

We believe in …

  • The storytelling of art.

  • Selling to people that ‘get’ that artists are creating legacy…their own and yours.

  • Our artists being loved and appreciated as much as their art.

  • Art investment that is based on buying art you love and creating a legacy collection that stands the test of time and is passed down through the generations.

  • Celebrating non-conformity and supporting the diverse uniqueness of our artists.

  • Helping artists create their legacy by supporting their creativity and helping them create a sustainable income from their art.

So, if you are up for it, let’s FTSQ the hell out of the art world together.

Team of one…for now!

The Boss Lady:
Lena Robinson is the founder and owner of The FTSQ Gallery, with a larger than life character. She has a love of art and artist that began when she was little reading her Dad’s art history books. Spending hours as a pre-teen reading about the lives and creations of the great masters.

It’s partly why she has an intense dislike of the status quo and an unrivalled desire to help, guide and support those that are unconventional, different and unorthodox.

With a special place in her heart for all of the non-conformists out there, Lena intends to run her art gallery in line with her beliefs. F***ing with the Status Quo when it suits her and caring for those that are part of the FTSQ Gallery Community.
