5 March – 23 May 2010
Art Gallery of New South Wales
Wilderness, a new exhibition, will bring together fourteen of Australia’s best contemporary painters, including Del Kathryn Barton, Daniel Boyd, Tony Clark, Louise Hearman, Mary Scott, Michael Zavros and Fiona Lowry, to consider how nature and landscape are as entwined in our minds, memories and imaginations as as they are in any empirical fact.
After viewing the work of over 60 young to mid-career painters, Wayne Tunnicliffe, senior curator, contemporary art, selected the theme of wilderness and invited these fourteen artists to participate in this exhibition.
