Outstation Gallery, set on the beautiful Darwin harbour, is a collaboration between two of Darwin’s leading contemporary art gallerists, Matt Ward and Paul Johnstone. United by a shared vision for supporting and promoting world-class Aboriginal art, they work closely with Aboriginal-owned art centres to deliver an exceptional and ethical art experience. Outstation Gallery is also proud to exhibit

contemporary art from non-Indigenous artists who currently reside in, or have a connection to the Darwin region. A modern, flexible, beautifully-lit exhibition space, Outstation Gallery on the Waterfront, welcomes visitors and locals alike, encouraging respect and appreciation for the complex and powerful art, stories and culture on show. Outstation Gallery is a member and signatory to the Indigenous Art Code, and is committed to fair dealing with artists, their art centres and communities.

Daisy Barney and Betty Chinney are just two of the ten compelling artists from Iwantja Arts on show right now!

Feast your eyes on this…

Opening alongside our Utopia survey show, is a group exhibition ‘Kwanty Penh (After the Rain) from neighbouring Ampilatwatja.

And the centrepiece is this remarkable ten-panel collaborative work on paper, created collectively by thirteen artists.

‘Kwanty Penh’ from artists_of_ampilatwatja is both a celebration of country after rain and a testament to the strength that comes from making work together.

On exhibition from Saturday 2nd May - and online now. https://outstationgallery.com.au/ag-exhibitions/group-exhibition-in-association-with-artists-of-ampilatwatja/

Canvas, sculpture, works on steel - Utopia Today opens Saturday 2nd May and brings together extraordinary works from seven artists from the Arlparra community in Central Australia.

Included in this stellar lineup is Josie Petyarr Kunoth, niece to Emily Kam Kngwarray. “That old lady Emily she was singing. That old lady told me - ‘you sing this one. This is your country. Awelye. Alhalkere.

“I’m making my own style now. My way. Mwerr-way. I still sing. No one’s singing anymore but I’m singing my canvas’ - Josie Petyarr Kunoth.
