Established in 2014 by Australian gallerists Kate Barber, Vikki McInnes, Geoff Newton and Vasili Kaliman, Spring1883 is a hotel-based art fair that presents the best of contemporary art practice by invited galleries from Australia, New Zealand and beyond.
Conceived by galleries for galleries, participation in Spring1883 is through invitation only, and provides a boutique site for dialogue and interaction between galleries, artists, curators and collectors alike.
First presented in August 2014, the ninth version of Spring1883 will return to The Hotel Windsor − Melbourne’s oldest and most cherished hotel. From 13–16 August 2025, national and international contemporary art galleries will present solo and group exhibitions across the hotel’s stately space.
