Linden New Art, established in 1986, is a public gallery located in the Melbourne suburb of St Kilda. Our vision is to be a leading mid-size contemporary art space. Our mission is to be a conversation-driven organisation championing bold new ideas. With a focus on mid-career artists, we pursue inclusive, thought-provoking programs creating new experiences & engagement through contemporary art. We embrace different ways of experiencing and seeing the world and oneself, and provide opportunities to learn, debate and explore through contemporary art.
Our core activity is defined by three aspects: exhibitions, public and education programs, and knowledge generation. Exhibitions are uniquely focussed on supporting mid-career artists and consist of solo exhibitions, often of new work, and thematic exhibition, which engage with the big issues of our time. Exhibitions are supported by multi-faceted public and educational programs, and the generation of online essays and exhibitions publications, targeted towards diverse audiences.
