Contemporary Australian Art

Step inside and everything else drops away. Every wall hums with colour, texture and story. And every piece is available to make that story part of your own collection. More than an exhibition, this evolving curation evokes emotion, inspiration, and conversation.

If you love the contemporary edge of Sydney's MCA, or the quiet prestige of Canberra'a National Gallery, you’ll find that same calibre of contemporary Australian art here — with the rare chance to take it home.

The Highlands offers plenty to see, but the most curious visitors look beyond the obvious and find spaces that surprise and stay with them. Inside Spud Lane you'll encounter collectible works, from tiny little studies to bold statements - each chosen for its ability to evoke, provoke, or transform a room.

Each weekend brings new arrivals from emerging and established Australian artists — all available to acquire directly from the gallery or our online stockroom.
