Australian Centre for Contemporary Art (Southbank)



Australian Centre for Contemporary Art (Southbank)

The Australian Centre for Contemporary Art is Melbourne's leading contemporary art gallery presenting the most challenging, innovative and creative visual art of our time.

Designed by Melbourne based architects, Wood Marsh, ACCA's distinctive steel building is in the heart of Melbourne's arts precinct in Southbank. The landmark rust-red structure is one of Melbourne's architectural icons.

ACCA brings the latest and most significant artwork by living artists from around the world to Melbourne audiences, and commissions new artworks by local and international artists.

ACCA is a Kunsthalle. It is the only major public art gallery in Australia focused on commissioning rather than collecting.

The Yellow Peril sculpture is located outside the building.

Review:


When we saw the huge iconic building we thought that the gallery was going to be very extensive. Even though the display spaces are extensive in size there were only four rooms with art work. This is because the Australian Centre for Contemporary Art presents exhibitions and does not have permanent displays.

The exhibition we went to "TV Moore: With Love and Squalor" was interesting and well presented and included a huge video projection on a wall.

In the foyer there are some lounge chairs, art books for sale and a coffee cart.
