Australian Tapestry Workshop

About

THE AUSTRALIAN TAPESTRY WORKSHOP (ATW) has built a global reputation
for creating contemporary tapestries in collaboration with living artists and architects since 1976. Over 46 years the ATW has woven more than 500 tapestries for significant public and private collections nationally and internationally.

A leading organisation in textile art, it is one of only a few workshops left in the world dedicated to hand-weaving contemporary tapestries. The ATW engages a team of highly skilled tapestry weavers who experiment with interpretation, colour, and technique to realise designs by prominent Australian and international artists into tapestry.

ATW tapestries can be found in many public and private collections across Australia and internationally. They feature at leading national cultural institutions such as the National Gallery of Australia, National Portrait Gallery, and National Library (Canberra), Melbourne Recital Centre, the Arts Centre Melbourne, National Gallery of Victoria, the Sydney Opera House, and the Queensland Gallery of Modern Art.

Tapestries are also housed in prominent government buildings including, Parliament House, the Australian War Memorial (Canberra) and the Sir John Monash Centre (Villers-Bretonneux, France). Overseas they are displayed at the Esplanade Theatres on the Bay (Singapore), Aoetea Centre (New Zealand), the National Centre for the Performing Arts (Bombay), Ministry of Foreign Affairs (Singapore), Nanjing Library (China) as well as at nine Australian embassies.
