What We Do
ARTIS Gallery has operated as a dealer gallery in Auckland, New Zealand, since 1984. A contemporary gallery with a strong exhibition focus, ARTIS represents a diverse range of leading New Zealand artists, many of whom have achieved international acclaim.
ARTIS is one of New Zealand’s leading sculpture galleries. Since 2017 we have been the host for MANZ (Medal Artists New Zealand) – and every two years ARTIS presents thirty sculptors in a March exhibition. Large scale works are exhibited on a plinth located outside the front entrance to the Gallery - this has been a permanent feature in Parnell since 2013.
Situated beneath ARTIS is one of the largest private gallery stockrooms in New Zealand. This open plan viewing space – the Basement Gallery – gives all our artists the unique opportunity to show their works continuously.
