Austin’s largest contemporary gallery (over 6,000 square feet), is proud of its eclectic collection of artists and its museum-like setting. As the only commercial gallery ever voted “Best in Austin,” and multiple times at that, Austinites and visitors alike continue to applaud the colorful and diverse gathering of local, Texas, national and international artists. Gallery owner Joe Sigel opened the gallery in 1998, realizing the need for a contemporary gallery in Austin and he introduced a collection of works by Picasso, Andy Warhol and others. Since then the gallery has evolved along with Austin’s constantly changing tastes, and now carries the largest collection in the country of the Secret Art of Dr. Seuss.

The gallery also showcases original contemporary works that don’t fit any genre, from Rebecca Patrick’s decadently painted florals to Cynthia Chartier’s mixed media figures, to Paul Stankiewicz’s iconic Austin scenes. Along with its ongoing exhibits of framed artwork, ART on 5th welcomes touring exhibitions from Washington, Chicago and Montreal, to name a few.

In addition to an amazing selection of fine art, ART on 5th is also the premier custom framer of choice in town. The gallery has carefully chosen a huge selection of frames from over ten different suppliers to ensure that they have the perfect design for your project.

ART on 5th is also Austin’s ONLY original vintage movie poster gallery. We have over 500 original movie posters in the gallery, and have access to thousands. We have everything from Star Wars to Rebecca, and from Lord of the Rings to Pete’s Dragon. Chances are if you’re looking for an original vintage movie poster, we can find it.

The gallery also expanded into artisan jewelry in October 2009, opening “The Art of Jewelry”. The Art of Jewelry” is anything but your ordinary jewelry shop. The artisans have been chosen for their individuality and inventive use of materials. Materials range from found objects to steel, seeds to gems, semi-precious stones, gold and oxidized silver.

Stop by one of Austin’s best-known art experiences and see what’s new!
