Australian Centre for Contemporary Art

The Australian Centre for Contemporary Art is an art gallery in Southbank's arts district with four exhibition spaces and two dance studios. The building features rust-colored steel construction and is designed so the interior can be arranged flexibly for different artistic installations.

The facility was established in 1983 and moved to its current location on Sturt Street in 2002. The new building earned an architecture award for its innovative design.

The center showcases works by Australian and international artists, reflecting diverse perspectives on contemporary artistic expression. Visitors can see how current creative ideas take shape and what themes matter to artists working today.

The center is located in Melbourne's arts district and is easily accessible by public transport. It offers retail space for art publications and also provides guided tours and educational resources for visitors.

The steel building deliberately has minimal windows, making it possible for interior spaces to become completely dark for special light installations and projections. This design allows artists to display their works under perfectly controlled lighting conditions.
