One Hundredth Gallery

I love the rotating exhibitions at one hundredth gallery. There’s always something new to look at, lust over or ponder and there’s a big focus on emerging artists and those I’m not too familiar with.
The opening nights are a great way to meet fellow art lovers, sip a glass of bubbles and get a chance to buy the art (sometimes at reduced prices) before the public sets their peepers on them. Signing up to the mailing list is the way to go as you then get early notice of new exhibits and opening nights.

To put it simply, one hundredth gallery is special.
Not special in a short-​school-​bus /​wears-​a-​helmet-​when-​not-​engaged-​in-​dangerous-​activities sort of way, but special in a you-won’t-find-another-like-it kind of way.
Opened not so very long ago in May 2011, one hundredth gallery exhibits artists that other galleries are too scared to go near — the emerging, new, aspiring and unknown. The gallery isn’t shy about supporting an enormous array of styles and media, from abstract paintings to expressionist sculptors, experimental film to fictional photographers… this gallery covers it all.
Centred around the belief that art doesn’t have to be highbrow and can just be about what you enjoy, curator Charles lets you wander at your leisure, can show you pieces that are hidden away and brew you a cup of tea.
With the vast majority of pieces for sale under $ 2,000, it’s arguably Melbourne’s year-​round Affordable Art Fair.
