About
Delve deeper into QAGOMA exhibitions and displays at our monthly Members lecture then catch up with friends over a two-course lunch on the Roof Terrace at GOMA.
Join Victoria Wareham, Assistant Curator, Australian Cinémathèque for an introduction to ‘Still Life Now’. Drawing on artworks from the Collection created in the last fifty years, ‘Still Life Now’ considers the way artists today are expanding the ideas of the still life tradition to create contemporary commentary on the nature of life and existence. This talk will highlight key works in the exhibition and accompanying film program to look at how artists and directors engage with themes of preservation, stillness, commodity and transformation to address cultural and political issues and promote social change. Lecture only tickets may be available.
$59 Members, $68 Members’ guests / Includes a glass of wine and a two-course lunch (main and dessert). Please advise any special dietary requirements at the time of booking.
