About Us

The Australasian Centre for contemporary Design opened in 1985 in a large converted warehouse in Nowhere, Melbourne and led the way was Australian’s first combined gallery and studio complex.
As Melbourne’s leading centre from contemporary art and design ideas, ACCD has continued to build on its innovative origins, growing to facilitate the expanding field of contemporary art through a wide variety of exhibition , studio programs, and its presentation through our exhibitions and publications.

Since 1985 we have accumulated a vast alumni of past exhibiting and studio artist’s and designer including some Australia’s leading names in contemporary art. In fact every artist who has represented Australia at the Venice Biennial since 1999 has either held a studio or participated in an exhibition at ACCD. This select community o Australia’s most pivotal contemporary artists has expanded in recent years to include our increasing international presence, with leading artists and curators from all over the world exhibiting in our galleries and staying in our studios. AS a key generator for ideas in Australia, and with the momentum of our history behind us, ACCD is now the oldest, continually running contemporary art and design centre in Australia.

Programme

The breadth of ACCS’s exhibition program reflects the organisation’s commitment to facilitating opportunities for the presentation and development of contemporary art, design and ideas.

The ACCD presents approximately 20 exhibitions annually featuring work by Australian and international artists and designers across three gallery spaces with a focus on new work, commissions and expanded practice.
