Join us for a floor talk with one of our experienced Museum guides as they highlight a key artwork from the exhibition or Boyd Collection Gallery.
Thinking together: Exchanges with the natural world presents major new commissions by contemporary artists Robert Andrew, Alfredo and Isabel Aquilizan and Keg de Souza, presented alongside paintings by the Martu communities of central Western Australia, and video works by Sorawit Sangsataya and Tina Stefanou.
This inaugural display in the Boyd Collection Gallery presents key works by Arthur Boyd drawn from the Bundanon Collection. They range from early landscape works from the 1930s, to the energetic explorations of the 1960s and mythological narratives of the 1970s, through to the larger, landscape-focused painting of the 1980s which takes the Shoalhaven as its focus. Selected ceramic works represent the important legacy of the family’s Murrumbeena pottery and its influence on Boyd’s creative practice throughout his career.
