MAIN GALLERY
MARVIN FRANCIS MEDIA GALLERY
AND (Artist New Dimension) GALLERY

Programming/selection process is by ongoing submissions presented by artists, curators or groups. Exhibitions are selected by the Director according to the strength of the artistic merit and relevance to the broader understanding of contemporary Aboriginal art.  We programme a wide variety of contemporary artistic practice including two and three dimensional works, media/new media and performance based art. Urban Shaman currently has three curated exhibition spaces. These include our 3000 sq. ft Main Gallery, the 300 sq. ft Marvin Francis Media Art Gallery and the 250 sq. ft Artist New Dimension (AND) Gallery. All artists are paid according to the CARFAC recommended fee schedule with the only exception being the annual 50-500 members show. 

Urban Shaman provides shipping/transportation of artworks one-way, for out-of-town artists we provide a daily per diem, artist transportation, and accommodation for exhibition installation and opening. We also engage in a wide variety of dissemination/discourse activities through artist talks, symposia, publications and digital/internet technologies. Artist, writer and reproduction fees are paid for all dissemination activities. Our priorities constitute programming artists whose work hinges on experimentation in form and content. This includes artists at all levels of professional practice, whose work shows a high degree of aesthetic maturity and rigour. 

Proposals are accepted on a continual basis and submissions should be addressed to:
