So we went to the Art Gallery of NSW this morning (those of you in Australia - especially Sydney will know this great gallery)if you are not its Sydney's largest Art Museum. The last time I went to that gallery was about 5 months ago. ( its been way too long)
It was so great to get some fresh inspriration, saw lots of beautiful paintings from the early 1800's some gorgeous landscape works (which yes I am a fan of) by many great Australian, German, French and English Artists. Some of my favourites are by Australian Landscape artist Arthur Streeton, he painted lots of lovely scenes of the Australian bush, the country and mountains.
I also saw some amazing conceptual work by German artist Anselm Keifer, such an intense artist with multi layered conceptual installations. Ahh brings back memories from Art school (where I studied lots of that type of art.)
I highly recommend to all artists and art lovers, if you haven't been to your local city gallery of late, its such a great opportunity to look at something different to your usual art favourites. I know for me I usually am obsessed with fantasy type art, romanticism, or similar so it was great to refresh with some different types of art.
Susan.
