The works of many artists I’ve long admired will be shortly be gathered around a very special table at Art & Collectors, Melbourne. I feel privileged to have been invited to join them.
A SEAT AT THE TABLE celebrates the women who made room for themselves — and for those who would follow — in the evolving conversation of art. Set around an antique Japanese dining table, the gallery becomes a place of gathering — salon-hung, conversational, like stories shared over a meal.
This exhibition honours both history and momentum, celebrating the enduring power of women artists. Take a seat with these women — cool, composed, and collected.
