Friends are invited to join us on a field trip to Bundanon to view Sky, Earth, Water, featuring works by acclaimed Australian artist Rosalie Gascoigne, alongside significant new commissions by leading contemporary First Nations women artists Lorraine Connelly-Northey, Janet Fieldhouse and Glenda Nicholls.

Together, these parallel presentations offer a powerful dialogue across generations and perspectives, celebrating the enduring role of landscape, memory, and material in shaping artists expression.

Extending out from Gascoigne’s works, the exhibition features new commissions by leading First Nations artists created in response to Bundanon’s unique natural environment, and the respective homelands of the artists. These works draw on longstanding cultural knowledge, offering multiple-perspectives on the practice of site-responsive art-making.

Our very own, Hetty Gascoigne, Exhibitions Curator at ANU Drill Hall Gallery, will share some reflections on her grandmother Rosalie Gascoigne’s life and career.

This talk is Free with Art Museum entry - which is just $12 concession / $18 full price. Individuals can pay on the day.

There will be the option for lunch at the gallery cafe 'Ramox' after the Hetty's talk. Please indicate when registering if you will be joining us, so an appropriate table can be arranged.

After Lunch there will be a performance by ensemble CzechMate. Bundanon has generously offered a 20% discount on tickets for Friends of the Drill Hall Gallery, use code DHGFriends20 to claim this benefit from this link: https://www.bundanon.com.au/whats-on/baroque-without-borders/
