Taking its name from the acronym for Dreaming Art Centre of Utopia, DACOU Gallery Melbourne is a leading Aboriginal family-owned art gallery.
Founded by Utopia community member Fred Torres in 1993, DACOU is one of Australia’s most prominent Aboriginal galleries and is recognised as the leading supplier of quality Utopia art.
