Gallery East

Gallery East represents emerging and established contemporary Western Australian artists, as well as specialising in the traditional and contemporary arts and crafts of Japan and those Australian and international artists who have been influenced by Japanese aesthetics.

Established in 1991, Gallery East was originally situated in Claremont and founded on a deep love of Japanese woodblock prints and the traditional arts of Asia, reflected in a policy of regular exhibitions celebrating the work of the great Ukiyo-e artists, as well as the sacred and secular arts of India, Laos, Sri Lanka, Tibet and China. Gallery East carries fine examples of original Japanese Ukiyo-e, including Shunga (erotic images) and contemporary Japanese prints.
