WESTERN PLAINS CULTURAL CENTRE

Dubbo Regional Gallery features 706m² of exhibition space incorporating four galleries and a space devoted to the moving image. The main space is devoted to large touring and in-house curated exhibitions, a Project Space for smaller touring exhibitions and solo shows, the Regional Art Space devoted to regional artists and a permanent Children’s Gallery. In 2007 the Gallery was the beneficiary of a generous gift from the Armati Family including Michael Riley's celebrated Cloud series of photographs. In perpetuity the Gallery will hitherto be known as Dubbo Regional Gallery - The Armati Bequest.

Dubbo Regional Gallery (DRG) was established in 1989 after many years of lobbying and planning by the Dubbo community. Housed in refurbished buildings in Darling Street Dubbo, DRG soon grew to become an integral part of the region through its innovative exhibitions, collection, education and outreach programs. The Gallery’s collection features works acquired from Dubbo Art & Craft Society Biennial exhibitions, generous donations and bequests, and active collecting. The Gallery specialises in the Animal in Art theme, collecting works in a broad range of media and styles by artists from all areas. The collection includes work by artists such as Arthur Boyd, John Olsen, David Noonan, Louise Weaver, Heather B Swann, Peggy Napangardi Jones and George W. Lambert.

For further information regarding exhibitions at DRG please contact Adnan Begic, Curator on 02 6801 4434 or adnan.begic@dubbo.nsw.gov.au.

WHAT'S ON

PERSPECTIVES.ART.

ECOLOGY

This exhibition is a curatorial framework which heralds an

invitation to several Central West regional artists and communities to participate in discussions about their environment – the history, contemporary challenges and future responsibility

of the place they share.

The exhibition also provides

a platform for a cultural mapping of the history and memory of the Central West region. It traces the relationships shared between knowledge of biodiversity,

communities, Indigenous spirituality and mythology, all

forming the foundation for the artists’ holistic and interdisciplinary research.

Curated by Adnan Begic. Developed by WPCC in collaboration with Peter Charuk, Kim Goldsmith and Gail Naden.
