Established in 2004, the Woolloongabba Art Gallery has quickly become one of Queensland’s leading independent art galleries, dedicated to the exhibition and sale of quality contemporary art. Representing a stylistically varied selection of local and Australasian art by established and emerging artists, Woolloongabba Art Gallery’s regular exhibition program is complemented with substantial stockroom holdings of works by represented artists. With an ethos steeped in cultural appreciation, the gallery sources its Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander exhibitions through 100% owned and operated art centres.
Located in the heart of Woolloongabba in Queensland's capital city Brisbane, the gallery boasts three exhibition spaces and operates in direct response to the need for continued dialogue in Australia’s multicultural future. Represented artists cross all mediums, from sculpture to photography, painting to installation, works on paper and ceramics. Both a homegrown and international authority on contemporary art, Woolloongabba Art Gallery has placed works in private collections throughout Australia and overseas, with many works also purchased by major Australian art galleries and museums.
