Gallery of Modern Art, Brisbane
GOMA (Gallery of Modern Art) is Australia's largest contemporary art gallery, known for ambitious touring exhibitions and a strong Asia-Pacific contemporary art focus, distinct from its sister institution the more traditional Queensland Art Gallery next door. It regularly hosts major international shows that draw dedicated visitors from outside Brisbane.
It sits directly beside the Queensland Art Gallery on the South Bank cultural precinct, so the two are easily combined, along with the Queensland Museum and State Library nearby.
