Summer with the National Gallery of Australia-LISTINGS ALERT

ETHEL CARRICK | ANNE DANGAR

7 Dec 2024 – 27 Apr 2025

free

This summer, experience two major exhibitions from two ground-breaking women artists, and only in Kamberri/Canberra.

Ethel Carrick was a gifted painter and colourist who was among the first artists to introduce a post-impressionist approach to Australia. An intrepid traveller, Carrick had a fascinating life and this retrospective brings new insights into her remarkable artistic legacy, nationally and internationally.

Anne Dangar was an artist at the forefront of modern art in Australia. Living in France, she worked and exhibited alongside European cubists as their artistic peer, all the while exerting an irrevocable influence on the course of Australian abstraction.

LINDY LEE: OUROBOROS

Australian Garden

Ouroboros, an immersive, public sculpture by Australian artist Lindy Lee is now open to visitors in the National Gallery forecourt. Ouroboros is based on the ancient image of a snake eating its own tail; an image seen across cultures and millennia, the symbol of eternal return, of cycles of birth, death and renewal.

LINDY LEE

Until 1 Jun 2025

Level 2, Gallery 25

Free

To complement the unveiling of Ouroboros, this exhibition brings together highlights from across the artist’s career as well as a monumental new installation and works on paper. Exploring themes of ancestry, spirituality, the environment and the cosmos, this display of new and recent works will shed light on Lee’s ever evolving and ambitious practice.

Free

A survey of historical and contemporary works of art by Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islander artists from across Australia, this exhibition draws from the national collection and Wesfarmers Collection of Australian Art.

MASAMI TERAOKA AND JAPANESE UKIYO-E PRINTS

Until 06 July 2025

Level 2, Gallery 26

Free

From the early 1970s Japanese-American artist Masami Teraoka adopted the traditional visual vocabulary of 17th–19th century Japanese ukiyo-e woodblock prints to comment on the world around him. These included reflections on contemporary themes such as globalisation, collisions between Asian and western cultures, and the AIDS crisis.

Collection Display
Until Aug 2025

CALLS FOR INVESTIGATION ON STUDENT DATA BREACH BY MICROSOFT TEAMS

SYDNEY 18 MAY,2025The NSW Opposition is calling on the Minns Labor Government to launch an investigation after student data was collected by Microsoft Teams.According to reports, the voice and facial biometric data of school students was collected using the Teams video conferencing app in March, and the Department of Education was unaware of what was going on for a month before the feature was switched off in April."This is a complete breach of privacy and trust for every student and parent across NSW and the Minns Government needs to step in and get to the bottom of what happened here," Mrs Mitchell said."Not only do we not know how long the data was held, but we also have not been told what the data was used for while it existed."What's even more concerning is the fact that it appears there are parents out there who are not even aware this occurred - and that is simply not good enough."There are also reports the Education Department did not answer questions about the number of students and staff affected. ...

Ongoing Rail industrial action in Sydney causing significant disruptions for commuters

Compiled by News Agreggator and Google GEMINI-Fact checking A.RitenisAccording to SBS News reports Sydney commuters should plan ahead and allow extra travel time today as the city's rail network faces disruptions due to ongoing industrial action.As of 5:00 am Monday, 197 Sydney Trains and NSW TrainLink drivers and guards had not reported for their shifts, resulting in 335 service cancellations, according to Transport for NSW.Numerous News Reports filed by assorted media emphasize the significant impact of the disruptions on commuters, who have faced repeated delays and cancellations due to the ongoing negotiations.The rail union and the NSW government are locked in a protracted pay dispute. The union initially sought a 32% increase over four years, while the government offered 15% (including mandated superannuation increases). The union's counter-offer of around 20% over three years was later withdrawn after legal challenges.Around one million people rely on the rail network daily, and they have experienced repeated disruptions due to the 10-month-long negotiation.The dispute was heard by the Fair Work Commission on sunday with no resolution.According to the NSW Opposition leader ,...Mark Speakman ,"the Minns Labor Government has lost the plot. The RTBU is running the show, the train network is in freefall,..... and commuters are being treated like collateral damage."In a media statement released late sunday the NSW Opposition Leader Mark Speakman challenged the Premier with the following taunt:"Premier - pick up the phone, call your ally Prime Minister Anthony Albanese, and admit what everyone in NSW already knows—you haven’t got a clue how to fix the mess you created by your unaffordable promises to union bosses before the election. Ask him to send in Murray Watt, the federal Workplace Relations Minister, and see if he has the spine to pull the handbrake on this rolling disaster." ... See MoreSee Less
