About Protean Art Gallery

Experienced business owners Sue and Erin Roughton established Protean Art gallery to offer locals and visitors the opportunity to experience and buy high quality original New Zealand art.

If you are looking for vibrant, inspiring and diverse contemporary art, then our boutique gallery is the place for you. We showcase the work of established New Zealand artists and we are also proud to support the work of emerging artists.

Come and enjoy our intimate gallery experience in central Nelson city and browse our selection of paintings, carvings and ceramics. If you can’t decide on one piece of art, we can bring the art works to your home (Nelson/Tasman region) and offer advice on placement before you buy.

We can arrange shipment across New Zealand and overseas.
