Fiona Foley, Gladys Milroy, Margaret Morgan and Edith Trethowan: Place Makers

Place Makers draws attention to the work of four exceptional artists whose work is grounded in relationships of place and community. Each artist takes inspiration from the gritty realities of everyday life to re-frame these moments as extraordinary, with nuanced and closely observed narratives offering diverse perspectives for understanding the world.

Spanning from the 1920s to the present day, the exhibition features new and loaned works alongside holdings from the Cruthers Collection of Women’s Art.
