Australiana

March - May 2017

Selected works from the Nock Art Foundation Collection

Featuring: John Peart, Fred Williams, Ian Fairweather, Elisabeth Cummings, Charmaine Pike, Madeleine Halliday, Roy Jackson, Richard Larter and Sydney Long

The Nock Art Foundation, in partnership with the Nockart Gallery, is pleased to present “Australiana,” an exhibition of paintings and prints by Australian artists from the nineteenth century to current day. Selected from the Nock Art Foundation Collection, the twenty-two works attempt to cast a modest look at how six generations of Australian artists each explored the expression of paint, brush and line, discovering an aesthetic that is on the one hand, individual and often ahead of their peers, and on the other hand, when seen here together, retain an essence that sparks a certain camaraderie and ‘Australian-ness.’
