ROBYN STACEY: AS STILL AS LIFE: A MONASH GALLERY OF ART (MGA) TRAVELLING EXHIBITION

Robyn Stacey: as still as life leads audiences into the tantalising world of the still-life tradition. The exhibition opens with an exploration of still-life photographs drawn from MGA’s Collection, placing the genre and Robyn Stacey’s work into context. Stacey is one of Australia’s leading photographic artists who brings historical collections to life on a monumental scale, interrogating what these collections meant for the original owners and brilliantly interweaving personal historical narratives into sumptuous still lifes. Curated by Anouska Phizacklea, MGA Gallery Director.

Artists: Katthy Cavaliere, Olive Cotton, Max Dupain, Joachim Froese, Christine Godden, Janina Green, Fiona Hall, Penelope Malone, David Moore, George J Morris, Michael Riley, Robyn Stacey, Anne Zahalka.
