SUMMARY:Art & Culture - Streeton – A Landmark Retrospective
DESCRIPTION:Join SWIC on a Private Guided Tour of the first Streeton exhibition in 25 years. This is a landmark exhibition of works by Australia’s iconic Impressionist painter\, Arthur Streeton\, whose brilliant evocations of light\, land and sea captured the spirit and optimism of Australia. \nAGNSW Director\, Dr Michael Brand has described this expansive exhibition as follows: ‘Streeton’s poetic and technically brilliant impressionist paintings were made during vivid periods of joy and periods of duress: from abundance and economic boom to drought\, bushfire and war.

These timeless works have enduring relevance as we navigate the extraordinary events of our own time.’ \nFeaturing more than 150 paintings\, drawings and watercolours from 42 public and private collections\, some not exhibited publicly for more than 100 years\, Streeton is an in-depth survey of the artist’s unique contribution to Australian art from the 1880s to the 1940s. \nOrganisation for attending Art & Culture events during Covid -19 \nStep1:  \nMembers email an RSVP to the Convenor to determine availability.

SUMMARY:Art & Culture – ‘Japan Supernatural’ - An extraordinary blockbuster exhibition
DESCRIPTION:Join Art & Culture for our final event for 2019 and discover the fascinating world of ‘Japan Supernatural’. Described as ‘wildly different’\, this is an extraordinary exhibition revealing three centuries of folklore and fantasy in Japanese art. Explore this wildly imaginative realm through more than 180 works from historical master Hokusai through to contemporary superstar Takashi Murakami. Takashi’s ‘artto shortli’ has graced monogrammed Louis Vuitton handbags and an album cover for rapper Kanye West\, and his signature otaku flowers are\, in his native Japan\, as recognisable as the cans of soup by Andy Warhol\, the cultural icon to whom he is constantly compared. \nThrough masterworks from collections worldwide and the Gallery’s own rich holdings\, Japan supernatural introduces an astonishing array of phenomenal beings from fiendish goblins through to mischievous shapeshifters.
