About the Artery

At The Artery, we combine our passion for Aboriginal art with a keen interest in contemporary homes and interiors. We look for artwork that is both meaningful and a joy to live with.

Through commissioning and sourcing contemporary Aboriginal artworks from Central Australia, we are committed to helping our customers find artworks of beauty that they will enjoy for many years to come.

Since opening in 2005, our gallery in Sydney is the platform where we demonstrate the visual richness of Aboriginal art, showcasing the latest artworks from both well known and up-and-coming artists. Our website is an integral part of our business and is updated daily.

We support over 200 artists mainly from Central Australia and encourage their traditional skills and joyful approach to sharing their culture through artistic expression.

The artworks we showcase celebrate colour and symbolism which evoke a contemporary feel that easily translates into modern homes and lifestyles. New paintings arrive weekly and our range includes contemporary 'Utopian' art as well as Central and Western Desert art. With 300-400 artworks in stock at any time we aim to have something for everyone.

Our business model is driven by our code of conduct reflecting an ethical and respectful approach and ensuring artists are empowered.

We are interested in developing long term mutually beneficial relationships with artists that provide an ongoing source of income to them throughout the year. This is why we don't hold 'shows' for artists - but strive to sell a broad range of artworks throughout the year.

Be it savvy locals, first-time buyers or tourists, we take pride in our approachable and honest style. Whether you seek a sublime feature piece for your home, an introduction to the enchanting world of Aboriginal art or a conversation to connect you with the places and faces behind the artwork, we welcome you.
