Bendigo VIC 3550
Bendigo promises to captivate this winter with the stunning McCubbin: Last Impressions 1907-17 exhibition at the Bendigo Art Gallery. It is an elaborate National Gallery of Australia Travelling Exhibition that is not to be missed.
On until 25 July 2010, it is the first comprehensive McCubbin exhibition in 18 years, and the first to focus on his later works. The exhibition features 72 works from all the major galleries in Australia, including several from the National Gallery of Australia's collection, and 25 rarely publicly displayed works from private collections.
Frederick McCubbin was born in West Melbourne in 1855. He and fellow artists, Tom Roberts, Arthur Streeton and Charles Conder were responsible for developing an impressionistic approach towards painting, known as the Heidelberg School. They illustrated scenes of nationalistic concern, creating a distinctive Australian style.
Offering a fresh look at Frederick McCubbin's late work, it concentrates on the last 11 years of his life when he produced his most vibrant works, ones which express his sense of delight in, and comfort within, the Australian landscape.
As the only Victorian venue to host this important exhibition, Bendigo is set to be abuzz.
