Art in Conflict touring exhibition from the Australian War Memorial

Contemporary artists’ responses to conflict bring to light untold stories, reveal neglected histories and deepen our understanding of Australia’s experience of conflict, both past and present.

Supported by research from an Australian Research Council (ARC) Linkage Project, the exhibition highlights how war art can lead us to consider different ways of thinking about current and recent conflicts, inviting us to consider perspectives we might not otherwise encounter.

Exhibition Dates: 3 March – 7 May

Launch: Thursday 2 March, 6 – 8pm

Curators Talk: Saturday 4 March, 10:30 – 11:30am

Join exhibition curator Dr Anthea Gunn as she tells us about the works on display and what was involved in curating this thought-provoking exhibition.

Artist Talk: Sunday 12 March, 10:30am – 12pm

Join us for an informative morning at the Gallery as Art In Conflict artists Susan Norrie and Shirley Macnamara give us an insight into their artworks on display and discuss the long legacies of war.
