The Gertrude Contemporary Studio Program hosts 16 artists for a period of two years.
Previous Directors of the organisation are Alexie Glass-Kantor,[4] Emma Crimmings, Louise Neri, Rose Lang, Max Delany and Samantha Comte.
In 1985 it led the way as Australia’s first combined gallery and studio complex, a model it continues to operate today.
First established under the name of 200 Gertrude Street, from the outset the organisation was dedicated to the production and presentation of experimental and contemporary art.
[5] In July 2017, Gertrude Contemporary relocated its primary venue to 21-31 High Street, Preston South, converting a furniture warehouse into a combined studio and gallery complex.
