Join us as Alexandra Lawson Gallery Presents a lecture by Dr Hayley Megan French titled The Place of Contemporary Australian Painting.
Dr Hayley Megan French is a Sydney based artist who completed her PhD in 2015.
French will discuss ideas at the core of contemporary Australian painting today, driven by the questions that arise as an artist working in the unfolding discourse of the contemporary, the historical legacy of colonialism, and the unparalleled impact and influence of Aboriginal contemporary art on the Australian artworld. French argues that with a growing knowledge of Australian colonial and postcolonial histories, contemporary Australian painting challenges us to think differently, about what we think we know, about place-making, and about our response.
This is a free event and all are welcome | Light refreshments served | RSVP to Toowoomba Regional Art Gallery
