University Galleries

University Gallery and Watt Space is renowned for ideas driven contemporary exhibitions from art practitioners and researchers – locally, nationally, internationally and from our own University community. It is a place for contemporary artists to develop and profile their practice, presenting compelling exhibitions that inspire.

The University Art Collection is a growing collection of over 3,000 individual works of art and culturally significant material. In recent years the Collection has focussed on the acquisition of contemporary Aboriginal and Torres Strait Island artwork. Over half of our Collection constitutes First Nations art created by artists from across the breadth of Australia such as Kaylene Whiskey, Ms D Yunupingu and Minnie Pwerle. The Art Collection also includes a substantial holding of First Nations printmaking that documents the medium’s growing presence and importance to remote Australian communities over the past two decades.

The University Gallery and Watt Space exhibit a wide range of artistic production from Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander artists, International exchanges, touring and collective shows, and solo artists.
