The prints in our WA Art Gallery collection are diverse and represented a strong cross section of print makers and types of printmaking.
Picasso, Lautrec, William Blake, Gauguin and Kandinsky prints- all the well known artists names with sound prints representing their work.
German print maker Kathe Kollwitz 's work "The Peasants War Cry" was confronting yet beautifully done.
I loved being able to see an Egon Schiele print - wee hoo- I just couldn't make the Melbourne exhibition of the Viennese Masters, so the poster of Egon Schiele's was a real treat to be able to see here in Perth!
However, it was a good visit for those who came along, followed by a fairly authentic yum cha lunch - all well worth the effort to get into the Gallery (and the Cultural Centre - I had not counted on all the models and the activity for fashion week happening in Northbridge too) and see what is on offer.
I am fired up for our next Dwellingup Retreat and Arts Weekend !
