Australian & Oceanic Art Gallery is a Port Douglas gallery focused on contemporary Australian art, with particular attention to works by Indigenous Australian artists. Its collection also includes non-Indigenous artists and a strong selection of North Queensland art, making it a useful stop for visitors interested in the people, places and cultural stories represented across the region. Works are available as paintings and limited-edition prints, with new pieces added to the collection over time.
The gallery’s featured artists include Rosella Namok, a Ku Ku Yalanji artist from Far North Queensland whose paintings draw on the landscapes, plants, animals and Dreamtime stories of her ancestral country. The website also presents work and biographies connected with significant Indigenous artists including Naata Nungarrayi, Emily Kame Kngwarreye, Yannima Tommy Watson and Linda Syddick Napaltjarri. Their practices span different language groups, regions and artistic traditions, giving the collection a broad view of contemporary Indigenous art rather than a single style.
For visitors considering a purchase, the gallery provides access to works by collectible artists and supports private collectors, companies and national institutions. Its online collection includes paintings by Rosella Namok and Emily Kame Kngwarreye, among others, while the gallery can also be contacted about its wider selection. International buyers should note that customs, duty and port charges may apply in the destination country and are the buyer’s responsibility.
The gallery says it has worked with Aboriginal Australian art and artists for 20 years and is committed to fair and ethical trading. It is a member of the Aboriginal Art Association of Australia and describes its role as supporting artists, the local community and contemporary Indigenous art. That makes it suited to serious collectors, visitors looking for a meaningful Australian artwork, and anyone wanting to spend time exploring the cultural context behind the pieces. The gallery’s artist information also makes it a worthwhile option for solo visitors or small groups who prefer a considered, collection-led art experience in Port Douglas.
