Australian Centre for Contemporary Art (ACCA), Southbank, Victoria, Australia

A collection of modern art by both Australian and international artists are featured in the Australian Centre for Contemporary Art in Melbourne. This modern art gallery that sits along Sturt Street, within Melbourne’s art district, lies in the same property where the Chunky Move, an Australian dance company, and Malthouse Theatre are located. The ACCA, which was founded in 1983, started with over 200 works during its first decade. The number continuously increases as the center commissions new artists for the yearly exhibition. In 2003, the Australian Center for Contemporary Art received the Institutional Architecture Award and the National Awards for its building design.
