Wilder Times: Arthur Boyd and the mid 1980s Landscape @ Bundanon

augWilder Times: Arthur Boyd and the mid 1980s Landscape @ Bundanon

Event Details

In 1984 Arthur Boyd was commissioned to create a series of Shoalhaven landscape paintings for the new Arts Centre Melbourne. In the Wilder Times exhibition, Boyd’s series of fourteen powerful paintings returns to Bundanon for the first time since its creation.

Responding to these paintings, WILDER TIMES brings together over 60 works by seminal Australian artists from the same time Boyd created this momentous body of work. The exhibition provides a window into a period of cultural dynamism in Australia, when ideas of landscape, land ownership and environmental protection were actively interrogated.

This exhibition is open 6th July 2024 – 13th October 2024. The Art Museum is open Wednesday–Sunday, 10am–5pm.
