What a beautiful summer’s evening celebrating the launch of Australia House Creatives at the Australian High Commission in London ☀️

Australia House Creatives is a wonderful new initiative dedicated to celebrating and spotlighting Australian and First Nations talent across the UK, creating new opportunities, connections and pathways for artists to reach international audiences.

Congratulations to all of the talented artists and performers who brought the evening to life. From opera and indie-pop to electronic music, spoken word, comedy, dance and First Nations visual art, the launch was a wonderful celebration of the depth and diversity of Australian creativity in the UK.

We were delighted to curate a selection of works by Aboriginal artists represented by Coe Gallery, showcasing the richness and diversity of First Nations art. It was also a special honour to see Mother Sun by Wiradjuri-British artist and Coe Gallery Founder, Jasmine Coe, selected as the visual identity for the Australia House Creatives programme.

A sincere thank you to the Australian High Commission for their continued commitment to championing Australian and First Nations arts and culture in the UK, and for the incredible support they continue to show Coe Gallery and the artists we represent. We are proud to be part of this exciting new initiative and look forward to seeing Australia House Creatives continue to foster meaningful connections and celebrate the extraordinary breadth of Australian creativity.

Congratulations to everyone involved in bringing such a special evening to life 🧡

COE GALLERY AT VOLTA BASEL 2026

We are delighted to be exhibiting at VOLTA Basel 2026, presenting a selection of works from the Coe Gallery collection.

Founded by Wiradjuri-British artist and curator Jasmine Coe, Coe Gallery was established to create opportunities for Aboriginal artists to share their own stories with international audiences. Grounded in the principles of self-determination, the gallery reflects the legacy of Jasmine’s father, Paul Coe, a leading figure in the Aboriginal Land Rights Movement and a founding force behind the Aboriginal Legal Service.

We are proud to exhibit alongside a number of international galleries presenting Aboriginal art this week. As the only Aboriginal-owned gallery within the Pavilion, we are honoured to stand in this space representing Aboriginal artists through an Aboriginal-led platform.

📍 The Pavilion | Stand P5

On International Women’s Day, we honour the voices, knowledge and strength of women across generations.

Lidja Binjidbira meaning “listen to women” in the Larrakia language, is a powerful painting by Larrakia artist Rebekah Nyalkba. Rooted in her connection to the Larrakia Nation and her upbringing in the Northern Territory, the work reflects the deep cultural importance of listening to the stories, teachings, and wisdom carried by Aboriginal women.

Rebekah Nyalkba celebrates women as storytellers, nurturers and leaders, reminding us that their voices have always shaped culture, community and the future.

Today and every day, we honour the power of women’s voices and the responsibility to truly listen with deep respect.

🌿 Gloria Petyarre (c.1942–2021) is widely regarded as one of the most significant Aboriginal artists of her generation. In 1999 she was awarded the prestigious Wynne Prize, bringing international recognition to her distinctive and powerful style.

Layers of movement and colour unfold within Gloria Petyarre’s remarkable painting Bush Medicine Dreaming. The work reflects the artist’s deep connection to Country and the cultural knowledge carried through generations of Anmatyerre women from the Utopia region in Central Australia.

This painting was previously exhibited in our summer exhibition last year. We are pleased to present it once again as part of our Spring Exhibition (19 March – 2 April), offering collectors and visitors the opportunity to experience this important work in person.

Join us for the private view on Thursday 19 March.
