With 25 years experience in Aboriginal Arts, Japingka Gallery’s directors have curated and presented over one hundred exhibitions of Aboriginal painting, prints and sculpture, both in Australia and internationally. Japingka Gallery opened at its present location in 1995, as an adjunct to the Aboriginal art and design company Desert Designs which began in Fremantle in 1984. The gallery site had previously been the home of Aboriginal Art centre Birukmarri Gallery which established there in 1985. Japingka Gallery is based in an historic two-storey warehouse building in the heart of the port city of Fremantle. With four hundred square metres of exhibition space and stockrooms dedicated to contemporary Aboriginal Art, Japingka Gallery provides a broad view of the artworks of indigenous communities and regions and a selected exhibition program in its first floor galleries.
