"People, Places + Ideas: Celebrating Four Decades of the Monash University Collection"
2002-10-08 until 2002-12-14
Monash University Museum of Art
Clayton, VI, AU Australia

Monash University Museum of Art launches the exhibition 'People, Places + Ideas' to mark four decades of the University's prestigious Collection. Curator Linda Michael has selected three groupings of works acquired from 1961 to the present, which focuses on three strong themes within the Collection: portraiture, the city and the suburbs, and conceptual and post-conceptual art.

Monash University began collecting art when it was founded in 1961. The Collection, which has always had a strong focus on contemporary art, has expanded over four decades to comprise over 1,200 works by more than 330 of Australia's most renowned established and emerging contemporary artists.

Includes key works by artists Howard Arkley, Stephen Bush, Simryn Gill, Callum Morton, Tracey Moffatt, Jacky Redgate, Tom Roberts, Robert Rooney, Fred Williams, Jenny Watson, Anne Zahalka, Constanze Zikos, amongst others.
