It’s taken me a while, but I’m finally back around to explaining the Bodywork exhibition, or to give it its proper title, Bodywork: Australian Jewellery 1972-2012. <\/em>In early October I mentioned that<\/a> Dr Robert Bell, AM: Senior Curator Decorative Arts and Design, National Gallery of Australia spoke at the Seams Seems symposium on:<\/p>\n

the Bodywork<\/a> exhibition. This exhibition of Australian jewellery owned by the NGA will be travelling to ten regional galleries from 2013 to 2015. The exhibition began at the Moree Plains Gallery<\/a> on the 7th of September, 2013<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

From the description on the National Gallery of Australia<\/a> website:<\/p>\n

This exhibition includes the work of 42 Australian jewellers exploring jewellery from a number of viewpoints within six broad themes: Romanticism<\/em>, Interpreting the Vernacular<\/em>, Encapsulating Nature<\/em>, Technics<\/em>, Social Message<\/em> and Sculpture for the Body<\/em>. All of the works are from the collection of the National Gallery of Australia.<\/p><\/blockquote>\n

Dr Bell specifically mentioned that the exhibition was not travelling to capital cities – except for an outing in Canberra towards the end of the tour (I covered this as well in that post<\/a>) so to catch it you’re going to have to get out into the regional centres. Or go through Canberra at the end of the ski season in 2015!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
