SUMMARY:Wonders of HINTON
DESCRIPTION:Experience one of the greatest collections of art in regional Australia with the new semi-permanent display\, Wonders of Hinton. \nThe Howard Hinton Collection is the result of one of the greatest acts of artistic philanthropy and benefaction in Australian history. Between 1929 and 1948 a collection of over 1000 artworks were donated to the newly constructed Armidale Teachers’ College by the retired shipping agent\, Howard Hinton OBE (1866-1948). The collection provides a snapshot into Australian artistic practice in the early twentieth century as well as some insights into this ‘modest and self-effacing’ gentleman who lived in a boarding house in the north shore suburb of Cremorne and is one of the most significant collections of Australian art in regional New South Wales. \nOpening Night Event: Friday 3 February\, 6pm \n

SUMMARY:Night & Day: Jane O’Sullivan
DESCRIPTION:Inspired by the evocative Cole Porter lyrics— \n“Night and day\, you are the one\nOnly you beneath the moon and under the sun.” \n—this series of abstract landscapes by Jane O’Sullivan explores the shifting moods and colours of the Australian landscape across time and season. The works celebrate not only place\, but the emotions and sensory experiences tied to different times of day and year. \n  \nThe exhibition was sparked by the creation of a single painting\, Night and Day\, which\, to the artist’s surprise\, appeared to depict a landscape caught simultaneously in sunlight and moonlight. This accidental duality prompted O’Sullivan to delve deeper into painting landscapes where the distinctions between light and dark\, day and night\, season and sensation are blurred and reimagined. \n  \n  \nCredit: Jane O’Sullivan\, Night and Day\, 2024\, acrylic on canvas.
