Welcome to the website for the Indigenous Australian Art Commercial Code of Conduct (the Code).
The purpose of the Code is to regulate the conduct of participants in the Indigenous art industry to ensure:
- fair and ethical trade with artists
- transparency with the promotion and sale of artwork
- a fair and equitable dispute resolution system for disputes arising under this Code
The voluntary Code will be managed by a Code Administration Committee, with the Australian Government Department of the Environment, Water, Heritage and the Arts providing secretariat support to the Committee.
Arrangements for establishment of the Code Administration Committee are currently underway. Once the Committee has been established further details on how to apply to become a signatory and lodge a complaint under the Code will be published on this website.
For inquiries please contact the Code Administration Committee Secretariat by e-mail IndigenousArtCode@arts.gov.au or telephone 1800 145 101.
