The Borun & Tuk Gallery is Gippsland Art Gallery’s dedicated exhibition space for First Nations artists living and working on Gunaikurnai Country.

This immersive, blacked-out space showcases a continually changing line up of outstanding talent by local artists.

From this spring onward the Borun & Tuk Gallery now occupies the larger Gallery 4 space, in recognition of the Gallery’s growing collection of significant First Nations art. This permanent space will feature highlights from the collection alongside recent and proposed acquisitions with loans of artworks kindly sourced from Gippsland’s First Nations communities.

This spring marks the arrival of Alan Solomon’s painting Thindu Wehntwin Didi—This is Grandfather Swan to the collection, alongside another new arrival, Family and Strength by Alfie Hudson. Ongoing loans to the Gallery include works by Uncle Albert Mullett, Auntie Doris Paton, Steaphan Paton, Bradley Brown, Ronald Edwards Pepper, and Richard Young.
