Stories Behind Our Collections

Artworks from the private collections of Redland Art Gallery Volunteers.

21 June - 2 August 2009
Redland Art Gallery, Cleveland, Gallery 1

Stories Behind Our Collections brings together over 50 works of art owned by volunteers of the Redland Art Gallery. While collecting art is a passion and enriches the life of the collector, rarely are these collections ever seen by the wider community. The exhibition comprises works by some of Australia’s most significant artists including William Robinson, Margaret Olley, John Olsen and Vida Lahey and features paintings, artists’ prints and watercolours.
