Modern Australian Women: paintings & prints 1925-1945, will focus on outstanding work by Australia’s great women artists of the modernist period. Superlative works, exploring form and colour in ways previously not attempted, by women artists during the period 1925-45.
The exhibition reflects the challenging thinking of the time and leadership demonstrated by painters such as Clarice Beckett, Dorrit Black, Lina Bryans, Grace Crowley, Joy Hester, Kathleen O’Connor, Margaret Preston, Thea Proctor and Grace Cossington Smith. In their works many of these women conveyed a modernist aesthetic link to the Australian landscape, its cities and people.
