fireworksgallery is known for hosting some of Australia's best contemporary artwork, nestled in the arts hub, near James Street, on Doggett Street, Newstead.
The gallery sources works from across Australia to build unique collections featuring contemporary works from established and emerging artists, Indigenous and non-Indigenous. It emerged as a commercial gallery space in Brisbane in 1993, following the networks of Campfire Group consultancies and collaborative projects that began in 1987.
A desire to present artworks by Indigenous and non-Indigenous artists alongside each other has been a constant theme underpinning the gallery's exhibition program and associated projects. Remarkably, the premise of cultural collision-originally cloaked in political and educational contexts of artists' shared influences-still seems as relevant today as it did twenty years ago.
The gallery is co-directed by artist Michael Eather.
Gallery Hours: Mon-Fri 10am-6pm, Sat 10am-4pm
