Becoming Modern – Mid-century Australian Art

Becoming Modern is a survey exhibition exploring the emergence of modernism in Australia during the twentieth century.

Drawn largely from the Tasmanian State Collection, it features iconic Australian modernists alongside lesser-known works, many of which are exhibited for the first time.

This large-scale exhibition brings together paintings, sculpture and works on paper, highlighting figuration, abstraction, and foregrounding works by Tasmanian women artists.
