EXHIBITION OPENING: *AMENDED TIME - 6pm* Exhibition Opening - Elise Blumann and Object Lessons

Join us at the Lawrence Wilson Art Gallery for the launch of two new exhibitions: Elise Blumann: An Emigre Artist in Western Australia, 1938-1948 AND Object Lessons II: Curtain Situations.

German artist Elise Blumann arrived in Perth in the summer of 1938. She was immediately struck by the local landscape and the piercing brightness of the Australian light. OBJECT LESSONS II: Curtain Situations refers to a recent acquisition for the collection from leading contemporary artist Agatha Gothe-Snape, a diptych titled Expression Curtain/Certain Situations, which juxtaposes found fabric with a text that transforms the fabric from an object into a _situation_.
