About

Established in 1968, Manyung Gallery Group is one of Australia’s largest and longest running contemporary art businesses.

With five contemporary art galleries located in Malvern, Mount Eliza, Mornington, Flinders, and Sorrento, Manyung is directed by Sharyn and David Wemyss-Smith. The business showcases contemporary works of art by established and emerging painters and sculptors who are sourced Australia-wide.

Manyung showcases around forty exhibitions of new works annually, and these exhibitions are supported by artist talks, soirees, workshops, and demonstrations.

  • Manyung Gallery Malvern provides easy access for inner Melbourne based clients to view great Australian contemporary art.  Our Claremont Avenue location is spread over three 100 year old shops and is adjacent to the Malvern Railway Station. Vistors to Manyung Gallery Malvern enjoy monthly exhibitions and access to a leafy sculpture courtyard to view over 20 outdoor and garden sculptures.

Regular exhibitions featuring Australian and International artists, and a large salon wall with artworks being rotated regularly, will allow visitors to see many diverse styles of art. This site always has an eclectic range of indoor sculptures, and approachable staff to personally assist you.
