QAGOMA Reviews

Really enjoyable art gallery. Definitely recommend it!

Beautiful gallery but some moving exhibitions spoiled my experience a little

For the weird and wonderful, it is always hard to go past the GOMA as the place to start!

Always an interest are our artists, especially those whom are threatened with sedition, arrest, who expose shocking behaviours of certain governments/antiquated aristocracies. These artists are brave and help society come into the 21st century :)

Love the building, the staff and the artworks, it is a shame that the back galleries are temporarily closed but in the other had I love the salon hanging of the classics that has happened because of that closing.

an absolutely amazing display of modern art. would go again. breathtaking

A fantastic and well designed modern art space - probably the best in Australia. Exhibitions are varied and almost always thoughtfully curated.

Admission is free of charge. The quality of exhibit is pretty high. All the facilities there are clean, tidy, well-organised and fresh as well. The place is suitable for everyone from childs to olds, even family and a single visitor. Highly recommend to visit everyone is in Brissy.

MUST VISIT. I have lived in Brisbane all my life and still enjoy visiting GoMA a few times every year. The exhibitions change regularly and always wonderfully curated. The permanent exhibits are exceptional. A fantastic collection of modern art in a beautiful architecturally designed building. Perfect. The cinemas and auditoriums are excellent for unique screenings and performances. GoMA is also an excellent place to relax on a hot Summer's day. Very serene with excellent views of the city. It's all FREE, with exception to major touring exhibitions.

Great precinct, lots of free shows. It was nice to spend the day there.

Impressive architecture, very well maintained facilities, a must see in Brisbane.

A preciously pretty collection of art, I loved sculptures, Amazing!

Always enjoyable visit to see the newest installations. It doesn't hurt to pop in here to cool off from the heat.

We visited from Melbourne and we're very Impressed with the quality of work on offer, particularly the current exhibition by Tony Albert. The staff were friendly and knowledgeable and the facilities very clean.

Was free, which is great. Exhibits weren't all that interesting this to me this time, but have been there with exhibits I enjoyed much more.

It has different art forms from Australia as well as from around the world.

Excellent gallery. Lots to do for children, being interactive art. Very clean and polite staff.

The museum is a fascinating place to visit, it's also free.

The Asia Pacific opening night was an unforgettable experience for me. Will never look at modern art museums the same way again

Definitely my kind of place to hangout if you re after a good quiet time.

the marvel exhibit was ok but far to expensive and small

Loved this Gallery. Great space for exhibiting large works and installations. Excellent cafe and bar on the riverside with strip of park to cool the air.

The "guards" are intimidating if they judge you as not actually being there for the art. My partner and I went in with a friend to actually enjoy the art and we were followed by numerous guards. One of them walked in right between us while we were having a conversation, stopped and turned to look at us. We felt like we weren't wanted there. Wouldn't go back again for the cold atmosphere.

I love QAG because there is always something new to see like the wonderful John Molvig exhibition. I also love visiting some old favourites like Sam Fullbrooks portrait of Ernistine Hill.

Some very interesting exhibits on display, the water exhibit was a very nice touch with most parts kid friendly. A bit pricey for what I thought we were getting for entry but my daughter loved the exhibition all the same

Most areas of the museum are free, which is great. Very interesting photography and multimedia exhibitions. Could use more painting and sculpture, in my opinion. Spent a good afternoon here.

I lost count on how many times I've been there and I there was always many interesting exhibitions going on, most of them free. The food is good but a bit pricey.

Always a cool place to explore when you are in brisbane.

It s a well-connected gallery that is perfect for a whole day

Great venue. Just a queue for the cloak room stopped.me giving 5 stars.

Had a great visit. Clean and organised venue. Always something on. Cant wait for the Marvel exhibit!!

I know going in school holidays isn't the smartest but it was the only chance I had before flying back to Tassie. The place was noisy and the new reno's have left the place feeling empty and poorly set out. You're better off going to the Queensland Gallery across the forecourt.

Good different entertainment. Patricia Piccini is an amazing artist who's art evokes a number of emotions

Not impressed by the selection of Contemporary art and not a fun of it personally.

Have you ever watched a reality singing show and wondered why someone never told the person their singing was horrible and they should pursue another vocation?
Most of the 'art' at GOMA has a similar vibe.
There is the odd gem, but it's mostly just representative of the recycle shop at your local waste transfer station.
I love modern art but this is sadly not it. You will find no Warhols or Picassos here.

Great experience, so much Australian art (no s@#t Sherlock!). I hadn't realised the range and depth before visiting the QAG. Even the building is a work of art, beautiful layout, use of water, scale, light and concrete. Opened at 10am today (Sunday), pleasantly uncrowded. Display beautifully presented, respectful yet welcoming. The advantage of a huge space is the ability to see enormous works of art in a suitable scale. Quiet, perfect temperature.

Great selections of artwork, very interesting with some multi cultural aspects of art. Spacious and easy to walk around.

Always a feast for the soul. My daughter loves the interactive activities in the kids art area.

Great place for the family. Many exhibits, most are free to view. Some popular ones have long waiting queues so be prepared for some waiting time. Accessibility is easy and there are wide staircases and elevators. Staff are visible and helpful. I suggest parking in the CBD and walking across Victoria Bridge, as parking is cheaper that way. Would highly recommend a yearly trip to this place.

Strange lay-out, got a bit lost. Great collection. Sad the cafe had run out of scones though at 3:30 in the arvo...

Amazing and all new experience at the Gallery. Really have put up some intensely unique art work

went to GOMA for a wedding.... what a beautiful venue

Visited the motorcycle exhibition. Will go back in the future to check out the rest of the gallery

Really enjoyed the Motor Cycle display and interactive. Lovely place to visit and always got something interesting going on.

We took the grandchildren to the spot room. This is the third time this has been offered and it's always extremely popular particularly with young children. The other galleries closeby were also fascinating for kids and adults alike. We worth it and well done again GOMA.

Great place to simply relax. There's always something to explore. Great escape from summer heat and broadening your mind at the same time.

Art isnt so great. Not enough exhibits to peak my interests.

While I very much enjoyed the Marvel exhibition there was very little in the way of modern at on exhibition. It appears the refit of the displays all happen at once. I only saw two bits of art in total.

Good balance of Australian and international art, clearly really supports Australian artists.

A great gallery. If modern art is your thing then visit.

Always something fantastic to come and see, my kids always talk about what they saw for days after we go, the NASA space exhibition was amazing and sparked the imagination for days afterwards

Great contemporary collection in a stunning building. The central atrium space hosts eclectic one off art installations at giant scale. Good curated shows. The other state galleries may have more depth but this one has what I like.

Very good collection from all over the world, and it's free :-) :-) :-)

We attended the Marvel exhibition and the exhibits were good but more info on them would have been good so we didn't have to buy the book at the end to find it out.

Children's section is fantastic for kids, even toddlers. Interesting place to visit for the adults too. Always have a good time here.

Went to the marvel exhibit ...boys loved it...makes you want to watch all the movies again
