At our last Art appreciation meeting we listened to Ivan Durrant talk about a painting he has on display in the Gallery. Ivan is always an entertaining speaker and is always willing to explain his passion for Art. The painting in question is of two backpackers lying on a beach and entitled ‘To Kill a Mockingbird’.
In question time he was prevailed upon to make some comments about his reaction to his recent retrospective held at the National Gallery of Victoria.
Ivan has had a long and varied career in Art and a long association with this region.

It is worth noting that the Gallery has a wonderful exhibition on at the moment in the Ledger Gallery. A large number of Gallery owned works have been brought out and put on display.
The Benalla Art Gallery is well worth a visit.
Join us on Monday April 4th at 10 am for the ‘First Mondays’ artist talk by Adrienne Doig, which will close her stunning exhibition, It’s all about me!
