From 2001 to 2011, Melbourne's Uplands Gallery provided a breeding ground for some of the most vibrant and enigmatic artwork to come along in decades. Much of Uplands impact was due to a complete disregard for the local status quo.

Uplands emerged at the very beginning of a decade of art market booms which saw the art industry in Australia, and the world, take a huge leap forward to become a behemoth network of interlinked institutions, commercial enterprises, DIY initiatives, festivals, biennales, trade shows, and more.

Presented as a notebook come genealogy, this [website] presents a history of Uplands from 2001 - 2011. We will be adding content to this website on a monthly basis until we feel the story of Uplands Gallery is almost complete.
