Local artists featured in Benalla Art Gallery exhibition

Published on 19 April 2021

Benalla Art Gallery will present works by artists from the North East in its upcoming exhibition, Northern Abstraction.

The exhibition features local artists Ralph Bristow, Frank Burgers and Anthea Kemp.

Benalla Art Gallery Director Eric Nash said the exhibition explored diverse approaches to abstract painting.

‘This exhibition draws together three artists with deep ties to the North East Victorian region,’ said Mr Nash.

‘We encourage the community to explore the region’s best abstract artists in this exhibition.’

Northern Abstraction will be on display in the Simpson Gallery from 23 April until 27 June.

Entry is free.

The exhibition complements the celebration of abstract painting on display at the Gallery, with a major exhibition by one of Australia’s leading abstract artists, Robert Jacks, on display from 30 April to 1 August 2021.
