Gallery 18 & Director’s Conference Room
In tandem with the Crossing Cultures exhibition, the Museum presents Prints by Twenty-Five Australian Artists: The Bicentennial Folio. The multicultural nature of Australian society is reflected in this compendium of prints, on loan from a private collector, that was commissioned by the National Gallery of Australia, Canberra, and issued in 1988 to mark the 200-year anniversary of the country’s settlement. The artists invited to produce images for the project ranged from the descendants of Australia’s first inhabitants to more recent arrivals from other parts of the world. Four of the prints are on view in the Director’s Conference Room adjacent to Libbey Court; the majority can be seen in Gallery 18. Free admission.
