‘ARTK’

In a UN conference in the near future, Australia has declared itself as a permanent neutral country and will not take part in any future international conflicts. Following this decision, Australia become an ideal sanctuary for artwork from all over the world, especially from the regions under the threat of constant conflicts. Melbourne quickly stands out among all Australian cities thanks to its long emphasis on culture, which leads to the arrival of waves of artifacts. This become an opportunity for local authorities to properly utilise these valuable products of human culture and truly establish Melbourne as the world’s cultural capital. In order to accommodate this need, the ARTK is commissioned. It is not only an art museum that contains artworks from all cultural backgrounds, but also a cultural hub for citizens of Melbourne to enjoy their civic life and socialise, a world class artwork repair and maintain centre, as well as a world leading art school that allow students to truly immerse themselves in the atmosphere created by the historical relics around them.

Located at the east side of Federation Square, the ARTK sits at one the most accessible and active regions of the city and is sure to attract domestic and international visitors alike.

As time pass by, the ARTK along with Melbourne would establish a reputation of being the safe haven and sanctuary for artwork and artists.
