Located on the UNSW Paddington campus, the recently established UNSW Galleries present an ambitious program of changing exhibitions and projects exploring recent ideas and research in art and design, creativity and culture, science and technology.
More like living creative laboratories than traditional exhibition spaces, UNSW Galleries encourages visitors to participate in a wide array of interactive public programs including discussions, performances and screenings.
Spanning three separate exhibition spaces encompassing almost 1,000 square metres UNSW Galleries are a platform for experimental curatorial research and practice, staging transformative exhibitions and projects that advance new modes of cultural production and engagement.
As part of its dynamic program, UNSW Galleries develops projects, workshops and events in association with a global network of partners including arts and cultural institutions, research centres, creative industries and diverse audiences. Dr Felicity Fenner is Director of UNSW Galleries.
