New Frontier Art Gallery

New Frontier Art Gallery is a leading visual arts gallery established in 2019 and based in Manila, Philippines. Its aim is to showcase contemporary artists from emerging contemporary art cultures in the Asia-Pacific region that are underrepresented in the international arts scenes. The gallery will promote living artists from Vietnam, Myanmar, Nepal and Mongolia. The gallery is owned by Australian founder Nick Moller, a resident in Asia for over 30 years.

The gallery hosts regular exhibitions and events, creating a focal point for local artists and their community to showcase and share their work. The gallery also hosts international artists to bring new contemporary art to the Philippines and the region.

The gallery represents some of the best rising stars in the arts in Asia-Pacific, including Nguyen Dinh Vu, Luong Trung, Nguyen Minh Nam, La Ba Quan, Nguyen The Dung, Loi Duc, Nguyen Minh Tu, Shwe Thein, Chuu Wai Nyein, Munkhbolor Ganbold, Shijirbaatar Jambalsuren, Mideo Cruz, Irish Galon and Sunil Sigdel.

The gallery also offers a host of services including sales, curation, and artist development. The gallery’s “Artist in Residence” program also supports and nurtures the local art community. Private viewings are available by appointment.

The mission is for the gallery to be an innovative and inspiring center of contemporary art where audiences experience the ideas and art of contemporary artists, and perhaps understand something of the cultural and social context of the art in the gallery. We hope to engage diverse audiences and build a sense of community by providing a home for discussion and contemplation of contemporary art and culture, as well as the social and cultural issues of our day.

The gallery will exhibit and promote contemporary artists from emerging contemporary art cultures in the Asia-Pacific region. The work of the artists reflects the social, political, and cultural issues of our time and document changes in each of their cultures. The gallery will host solo and group exhibitions from local and international artists. The gallery welcomes artists and audiences from all races and genders and promotes and celebrates diversity and respect for all people.

We hope that our audiences can explore and experience art, creativity, be illuminated, challenged and excited, and experience our shared humanity and develop and understanding and appreciation of the creative process and art and the artists’ role in engaging and creatively reflecting the changing world around us.

Our vision is to spread the inspirational message of the art in the gallery to people across all parts of society and create an impact on their imagination and outlook on life. We hope audiences will interact and engage with the gallery’s contemporary artists, creating a gathering space for exchange and dialogue. With the exchange between local and international artists and their art, the gallery hopes to be a lively cultural hub to open eyes and minds to new contemporary art, to generate discussion around the creation of art. We hope that the artists represented grow though this exchange and hopefully we can help them become cultural leaders of international repute and find new homes for their ideas and their art across the world.
