______________________________
Know My Name: Australian Women Artists tells a new story of Australian art. Looking to moments in which women created new forms of art and cultural commentary, the exhibition suggests new histories by highlighting creative and intellectual relationships between artists through time.
Know My Name: Australian Women Artists is a National Gallery Touring Exhibition supported by the Australian Government through Visions of Australia and the National Collecting Institutions Touring and Outreach Program. LWAG is proud to be the only WA venue touring this exhibition. Celebrate women artists – see their art, hear their stories, and know their names.

Lines in the Sand: Women from the West foregrounds work by Western Australian women artists, drawing on the strong holdings of the Cruthers Collection of Women’s Art, The University of Western Australia Art Collection and the Berndt Museum.
