The Shepparton Art Museum (SAM) presents over 40 artworks from renowned international and Australian artists in The ARNDT Collection: From One World to Another, a major exhibition that celebrates the pursuit of art collecting through a selection of treasures from the extensive private collection of Matthias Arndt and Tiffany Wood.

Featuring works from significant international artists, including UK sensation Gilbert & George, German-born Joseph Beuys and Spanish master Pablo Picasso, alongside contemporary Australian artists, including Del Kathryn Barton, David Noonan and Ben Quilty, this exhibition sheds light on the personal passion of collecting – one that often transforms into a lifelong captivation. This exciting exhibition marks the first major presentation of The ARNDT Collection in a public institution in Australia.
