The Collection spans the entire history of Australian art post white settlement. In recent years the Gallery has undertaken various projects which explore connections between historical and contemporary works in the collection.
This exhibition pairs works to create conversations across time. It includes works by much-loved Australian artists and some of our most exciting contemporary artists, revealing both continuity as artists of different generations take up the same concerns and themes, as well as differences in style, materials and the meaning inherent in the works.
Call and response features a number of recent acquisitions as well as some never previously exhibited works.
