Explore the connection between the Australian environment and the refined architecture and craftsmanship of Australian Parliament House. This free exhibition features a series of photographs by Jillian Gibb and Anthony Green.
In 1983, the Parliament House Construction Authority commissioned 24 artists to produce a photographic record between 1984 and 1986 of the building's construction. In their commissions, Gibb and Green captured the natural forms of the land, the hills and forests, which were the sources of the stone and timber for Parliament House. Under the hands of many skilled craftspeople, these materials shaped the new building.
This exhibition is a rare opportunity to see the exquisite gelatin silver prints documenting the sources of the stone and timber that went into making Parliament House.
After you take in the exhibition, explore the natural materials used throughout the building.
