ARTHUR BOYD: LANDSCAPE OF THE SOUL

Bundanon Trust touring exhibition

This exhibition, currently touring Australia, presents a number of never-before-seen works created by Boyd as a teenager and offers the first in depth look at the artist’s powerful early grasp of the landscape as a subject. Bookended by Boyd’s youthful paintings of the Mornington Peninsula in the 1930s, and the final phase of his career depicting the Shoalhaven area in southern New South Wales from the mid-1970s, Arthur Boyd: Landscape of the Soul considers not only the topographic landscape, but also the psychological landscape Boyd carried within himself. Guest Curator: Barry Pearce, Emeritus Curator at the Art Gallery of New South Wales.

Bundanon’s celebrated Artist in Residence program has created a legacy of gifts to the Trust’s Collection which map the history of art making in Australia. To mark the twenty-five years since the founding of the Trust, this exhibition included work by twenty-five artists of the several thousand who have participated in the program since 1993.

INHERITANCE

Bundanon Trust is richly endowed with works by Arthur Boyd’s grandparents Arthur Merric (senior) and Emma Minnie Boyd, as well as his parents Merric and Doris Boyd – all of whom were highly competent artists in their own right. This exhibition shows a small selection of works by each of these family members and makes visible their profound influence on Boyd’s own artmaking.
