Brave New World Australia 1930s

A great exhibition at the NGV Federation Square. Australain art in the 1930s.
It is on until October 15.
An interesting range of painting, fashion, sculpture, film, dance and posters - samples of visual art in the 1930s in Australia.
Among my favourite painters, Clarice Beckett (below)


 And a wonderful poster proclaiming Melbourne to be the seventh city of the empire, largely because of the skyscraper depicted in this poster. The Manchester Unity Building!

Katsushika Hokusai at the NGV

I went to see this wonderful exhibition today at the NGV.
It is very extensive and elegantky curated.
I only had an hour; enough to wonder at the exquisite workmanship and beauty of these woodcuts.

Jim Dine at the National Gallery of Victoria

How lucky am I to be able to visit the exhibition of Jim Dine prints at the National Gallery of Victoria!  I love his use of everday objects as subjects in his work.
