What an amazing gallery space! We were visiting Federation Square and decided to have a look. So glad we did. What a great variety of artwork on display, from the classic to modern, with a selection of Indigenous art as well. It really has a bit of everything. And such a stunning space to house the art, reminiscent of the Berlin Jewish Museum. The building is beautiful with all those nooks and crannies and different light. So worth a visit, and it's free.

The Ian Peter Centre is allied to the National Gallery of Victoria (NGV). The Potter Gallery's collection is mainly composed of Australian Modernist painters, many of whom had their origins in Melbourne. The Potter is also strong in indigenous art. The NGV is strong in international art, especially European art.

While visiting Melbourne for first time, stopped by for a visit in late afternoon. The painting focused on Australian artist which was pretty interesting, since I had not much experienced Australian paintings in US or European art museums. The visit was enjoyable while the building was very modern. I actually thought it was a better experience than the NGV International which was surprising for me.

A solid gallery. Not huge but I had a great time. Minus one star as would be helpful to have a cafe or space to charge phone and in absence of that a more detailed floor map. Not expecting aB&W with just 20th century I would have enjoyed more detail on the walls about the artist and the acquisition. I didn't find it as well curated as the counter parts in Sydney or the smaller SA gallery

This was a small museum that showcased modern art from Australian and indigenous artists. It was located inside Federation Square which also lent to its modern look. Admission was free but we had to check our backpack at the front desk. Exhibits were spread out across three floors and were engaging. This was a good start before walking over to the main NGV museum.
