Ross Watson (born in 1962) is an Australian artist.




Career


Watson has exhibited in many solo and group exhibitions since 1984, including important surveys of Australian and international contemporary art at the National Gallery of Australia, the National Gallery of Victoria, and in the Toronto and Melbourne International Art Fairs. He has been described as a "proud, gay man", and his sexuality has inspired several of his works.
His work includes portraits of Australian former rugby league footballer Ian Roberts, and Olympic Champion Matthew Mitcham.
Watson's art is included in the collections of the National Gallery of Australia, National Gallery of Victoria, National Portrait Gallery, and significant private collections including Sir Elton John, James J. O'Donnell, and James D. Wolfensohn. He also did free work in aid of the AIDS charity, the Terence Higgins Trust.
Untitled# Ross Watson, an internationally released book published by Bruno Gmünder Verlag in Germany, includes an interview with the artist by former High Court Justice, the Hon. Michael Kirby.
