GUIDED TOUR: Abstracting the Collection

Join Gemma Weston, the new Curator of the Cruthers Collection of Women's Art at UWA, at 1pm on Friday September 13, for a tour that explores the themes, artists and artworks featured in the current exhibition Abstracting the Collection.

Abstracting the Collection explores a variety of approaches to abstraction in contemporary painting, from the optical to the conceptual. Linked by an emphasis on the grid or repeated pattern and a lyrical, textural approach to colour and form, works take inspiration from a variety of sources including nature, textile design and from data collected from books and texts.
