The Pintupi Nine: Tradition and Legacy

Join us as we celebrate the remarkable Pintupi Nine, a group of artists whose powerful works have become some of the most iconic in contemporary Indigenous Australian art. Emerging from the Gibson Desert in 1984 after living a nomadic life, their paintings vividly reflect the sacred Dreamtime stories and landscapes of their homeland. Featuring works by the Tjapaltjarri brothers, Walala, Warlimpirrnga, Thomas, and their sister, Yukultji Napangati, this exhibition honours their legacy and the transformation from traditional life to global art acclaim. With a strong presence in international collections, particularly in the U.S. their art continues to captivate audiences worldwide.

Goompi Ugerabah

We are thrilled to present the first solo exhibition of Goompi Ugerabah, 2023 Paddington Art Prize Winner and one of Australia's most exciting contemporary Indigenous artists. Goompi's works are deeply connected to his Kombemerri and Gurreng Gurreng heritage, blending his passion for song, dance, and cultural storytelling with a distinctive visual language. His bold, graphic designs evoke the richness, power, and beauty of the Gold Coast and surrounding regions. This exhibition offers an opportunity to experience the cultural vibrancy of Goompi's art, where each piece reflects his pride as a custodian of culture.
