Slow Burn - A century of Australian women artists from a private collection



OPENING 5 AUGUST AT THE S.H. ERVIN GALLERY

This stunning exhibition features the work of ninety three Australian women artists ranging from the delicate pastels of Janet Cumbrae Stewart to the modernist prints of Margaret Preston through to the bio-techno sculptures of Patricia Piccinini. The works in the exhibition demonstrate the skill and versatility of women artists over the past hundred years.

Slow Burn traces the history of women artists in Australia and the development of an extraordinary private collection over twenty five years. The evolution of the collection was guided by the late art dealer Eva Breuer. This is an amazing opportunity to view works by artists such as Clarice Beckett, Grace Cossington Smith, Margaret Olley, Tracey Moffatt and Bronwyn Oliver that are rarely seen by the public.

This exhibition has been generously supported by Eva Breuer Art Dealer.
