Curated by Sharon Tassicker Scratching the Surface: A selection of works from the Janet Holmes à Court Collection gives visitors the chance to engage with some of her best-loved works from a very personal collection of Australian art.
The works trace how one of most acclaimed private collections of Australian art was built - from 1968 when Janet and Robert Holmes à Court purchased their first works from the Darlington Arts and Crafts Gallery in the Perth Hills, until today. The exhibition features 70 works, which include paintings, ceramics, sculptures, drawings and textiles.
