National Gallery of Victoria

Naarm | 180 St Kilda Rd, Melbourne

 

The National Gallery of Victoria (NGV) is the oldest, largest, and most visited art museum in Australia. The NGV opened in the south wing of the State Library in 1859, and it wasn't until 1967 that the gallery moved to St Kilda Road. Since 2012, Tony Ellwood has been the Director of the NGV, and he is killing it. Some of his highlights include exhibiting shows from Keith Haring, David Hockney, Ai Weiwei, Andy Warhol, and Monet. Check the NGV website to see what is showing, and the permanent galleries are also well worth a visit.
