Wentworth Galleries

Wentworth Galleries brings together Australian contemporary art and Aboriginal art at its Brisbane gallery in the Queen’s Wharf precinct. The gallery presents work by Australian artists across these fields, taking an integrated approach rather than treating them as completely separate categories. Its online collection also includes new arrivals, exhibitions, artist information and gallery news, making it possible to explore the programme before visiting.

The gallery has more than 30 years of experience connecting people with Australian artists, with the Brisbane location opening in 2025 as an expansion beyond its established Sydney galleries. Artists featured on the site include Ken Knight, Emily Kngwarreye, Mel Brigg, Gloria Petyarre, Tommy Watson, Johnny K, Emily Persson and John Maitland. Rather than a public museum, Wentworth Galleries is a commercial gallery and art dealership, so the focus is on discovering, viewing and purchasing works for homes, offices and collections.

For visitors considering a purchase, the gallery offers practical assistance including framing advice, flexible payment options, worldwide shipping and an exchange guarantee. Art rental is also available for private and corporate clients. Obligation-free home or office trials are specifically offered to eligible buyers in greater Sydney, while complimentary delivery and hanging are listed for Sydney and surrounds, so Brisbane visitors should check which services apply locally.

The Brisbane gallery is at 100 George Street within Queen’s Wharf, making it a straightforward stop for anyone already visiting South Bank or the precinct. It may suit solo visitors wanting to browse at their own pace, collectors looking for Australian or Aboriginal art, and couples or small groups seeking a more considered cultural outing. With exhibitions, artist features and a broad range of work across contemporary and Indigenous Australian art, it offers an introduction to collecting as well as the chance to view pieces in person.
