Join Deirdre Cannon, Assistant Curator, Australian Art, for a talk on Australian women sculptors of the early twentieth century, focusing on artist and jeweller Jean Broome Norton (1911–2002).
In this talk, Deirdre will explore the training Broome-Norton and her contemporaries undertook at the East Sydney Technical College in the 1920s and 30s, and how their works represent important stylistic advances of the interwar period.
Art Talks is a free weekly program. Hear from artists, curators and experts on the works in our collection and exhibition program. This Art Talk is part of a series focused on sculpture.
This program is wheelchair accessible and four assistive listening devices will be available for attendees who are hard of hearing. Please email [email protected] for more information.
