Art & Australia Pty Ltd is a biannual print magazine, the country’s longest-running art journal, in print since 1963.

In May 2013, ARTAND Australia celebrated its fiftieth anniversary. First published by Sam Ure Smith in May 1963, it followed Sam’s father Sydney Ure Smith’s publication "Art in Australia", which was in print 1916–42.

From 1963 to 1983, Mervyn Horton was the magazine's founding editor. He was followed by Elwyn Lynn, Jennifer Phipps and Leon Paroissien, Dinah Dysart, Hannah Fink and Laura Murray Cree. In 2003, Eleonora Triguboff became Editor/Publisher of ARTAND Australia, former editors include Laura Murray-Cree, Claire Armstrong, Katrina Schwarz, Michael Fitzgerald and Genevieve O'Callaghan. The magazine has also involved many distinguished editorial advisers.

Since 2004, winners of the ARTAND Australia / Credit Suisse Private Banking Contemporary Art Award – awarded to Australian and New Zealand emerging artists – have appeared on the magazine’s back cover. Since 2008, the magazine has partnered to host the Gertrude Contemporary and ARTAND Australia Emerging Writers Program. ARTAND Australia also regularly collaborates with artists and designers to produce Artist Editions and Artist Projects.

In August 2013, the print magazine celebrated fifty years and its 200th issue. The 201st issue – volume 51, number 1 in August 2013 – featured a redesign by Melbourne-based design firm Fabio Ongarato Design.

Art & Australia continues to evolve in the exciting though turbulent world of converging media and art. In 2014 Art & Australia launched a new website as a platform to share their archive of over fifty years and daily news. The response has been so overwhelmingly positive that they decided to migrate to a fully online presence and increase their focus on art book publication with Dott Publishing, an imprint of Art & Australia.

In 2015, Eleonora Triguboff donated Art & Australia to the Victorian College of Arts. Triguboff's ARTAND Foundation retained Dott Publishing.
