Best Art Galleries in Perth and suburbs

Local Recommendations from our My Guide Perth team

WA has been blessed with more than its fair share of artists, artisans and craftsmen who continue to captivate people from all over the world with their works of art. And why is this so?

Perhaps it's the geographical isolation from the rest of the world that allows creative minds and hands to work their magic? Or maybe there really is something in the WA water? Many artists have also been drawn to this huge state because of the quality of natural light that they say can't be found elsewhere. It's intensely bright, unfettered, and unclouded - it really does make everything look clearer, sharper and more vibrant than usual. WA is a land of great contrasts and the sheer beauty of its natural landscape has been the muse for many artists.WA's retail art galleries are varied - ranging from those that exhibit local indigenous art to specialists in contemporary pop art. Some galleries may only display the works of more established artists while others are showcases for raw, new emerging talents. You'll also find a wide array of paintings, drawings, sculpture, photography, ceramic and more.LOCAL TIP: Purchase a piece or two to remember your time in beautiful WA :)
