The Gallery of Modern Art, often called GOMA, is a museum of contemporary art in South Brisbane, Australia. It is part of the Queensland Cultural Centre precinct on Stanley Place, so visitors can combine a gallery visit with the other cultural venues on the same site.
The gallery presents itself as Australia's largest gallery of contemporary art. Its exhibitions and collections focus on new and recent work, so the displays change the reason to visit: what you see on one trip may differ from the next.
What a visit offers
- Contemporary art: cutting-edge exhibitions and a collection centred on work made in the present day.
- The cultural precinct: the gallery sits alongside neighbouring venues, which makes a half-day or full day easy to plan.
- A South Brisbane base: the area around Stanley Place is a good starting point for exploring the city on foot or by public transport.
Planning your trip
The gallery can be reached at Stanley Place, South Brisbane QLD 4101, and by telephone on +61 7 3840 7303. Because exhibitions rotate, it is worth checking what is on before you travel, particularly if a specific show is the main draw. Allow time to walk the precinct as well, since the setting makes it easy to pair art with a relaxed stroll through the surrounding cultural area.
