Join one of our knowledgeable Voluntary Gallery Guides for a guided tour of dis/possession: identity and sense of place.
There is nothing like a personal interaction to spark the imagination. Whether you’re a seasoned artistic traveller or apprentice explorer, our Voluntary Gallery Guides, offer that extra insight and revealing glimpse into the artwork, the era and the artist.
As art museums globally re-think the display of their collections, the collection-based dis/possession brings two important AGWA works into conversation; Hans Heysen’s Droving into the light 1914-21 and Mervyn Street’s Bull ride 2015-16.
