Dr Michael Brand, the director of the Art Gallery of New South Wales, has listed the Bellevue Hill home he shares with wife Tina.
Brand paid $3.2 million for the five bedroom home in 2012 when he joined the AGNSW.
He had previously been a consulting director of the Aga Khan Museum in Toronto.
The 1970s home is not far from the Bellevue Hill home of the former gallery boss Edmund Capon.
Hidden from the road by leafy trees, the family home features a library with stone fireplace.
