Artspace, officially Artspace Visual Arts Centre, is an independent, not-for-profit and non-collecting residency-based contemporary art centre. Artspace is housed in the historic Gunnery Building in Woolloomooloo, fronting Sydney Harbour in Sydney, Australia. Devoted to the development of certain new ideas and practices in contemporary art and culture, since the early 1980s Artspace has been building a critical context for Australian and international artists, curators and writers.[1]
In December 2023, Artspace reopened following a transformation into a landmark multi-platform contemporary art centre with expanded exhibition spaces and an increased number of rent-free artist studios.[2][3][4]
Artspace is supported by the Visual Arts and Crafts Strategy, an initiative of the Australian, State and Territory Governments. It is also assisted by the Government of New South Wales through Create NSW and by Creative Australia.[5] Artspace is a member of the advocacy organisation Contemporary Art Organisations Australia.[6]
