Drawing from the collections of The Riddoch Arts and Cultural Centre and the National Gallery of Australia, the Riddoch presents Almost Here, Almost Now: a far-reaching exhibition that pulls together works from public collections to hone in on existential questions of belonging and identity.
Exploring ancient, contemporary and imagined future relationships between land and sky, these works prompt comparisons between the deep time of space and deep time on Earth while situating the dirt beneath our feet as a subject for closer examination.
Spanning media and generations of Australian art, from Jeffrey Smart to Emily Kngawarray to Fiona Hall to Shaun Gladwell, Almost Here, Almost Now invites you to stroll through the sombre and the sublime, to behold the celestial and terrestrial, and find our own spot in between.
This exhibition is supported by MM Electrical Merchandising through the National Gallery of Australia's Regional Initiatives Program.
