Art Gallery of South Australia

All the good stuff in this gallery was almost ruined by one exhibit in the second room I entered: two horse carcasses, headless, hanging by one leg - truly horrible. I quickly left that room and avoided it on my return. Otherwise, interesting and very varied art and design work throughout this large gallery. Gift shop and café available.

Art are really amazing, but some I can’t understand. Not much people there, I can go around and take pictures easily. Nice coffee,cakes and foods. Managers also friendly too. (Free to go inside, don’t need to buy tickets). Store is also good too, beautiful pictures, card, …

This is a really great art gallery that is free to enter. It has since iconic paintings and sculptures that you can see in my pictures. You probably need a good few hours to see it all.

The curation at this gallery is truly something special! Very interesting pieces across different periods that work well together to create a statement without disrupting the flow of each gallery or being jarring. Both the front desk volunteer and the security staff were really warm and friendly and were delighted to talk about the gallery. I confess I do not like modern art very much and yet each piece was so thoughtfully curated and placed I really did not want to leave. As I pondered to the security guard who wandered over for a chat right before his shift ended- I really wish I could find more information about all the curators as I would love to follow their creative process in curating a wonderful gallery. Some of the lighting did cast a bit of a glare when I wanted to see some of the art from closer but overall, especially for a free gallery? This was a delight 😊. The curation felt like a story in itself, rather than having many similar pieces from the same period or with similar styles displayed together, which can drown the art in a sea of similar pieces. I think every piece got to shine here!

Dangerously Modern Exhibition at the Art Gallery of South Australia. Closes soon so visit while you can $30 non members. But free to see the Ramsey Art exhibition while you are there.

I went to the Radical Textile exhibition, it was great ! The works were spectacular and I bought the book to learn more about the inspiration and stories behind the design process

A place where you can spend 2 to 3 hours. With a great variety of arts and exhibitions. At 500 meters you can park your car paying little for 4 hours. Highly recommended this place

Very interesting collection of art. One of the best I have visited. If you’re lucky enough to join a free tour (11.00 & 14.00) Steve is a fountain of knowledge regarding interpretation of the pieces, a superb way to spend 60 minutes. Thanks
