Recently went to the Australia exhibit at the Royal Academy. Going to an art exhibit is always an iffy proposition for me as my knowledge of art is pretty much relegated to whether I like the look of it. In that context while I recognised some of the pieces at the end of the day nothing blew me away and had me racing to the gift shop to buy a print.

Nonetheless the exhibit was useful in showing the development of the Australian art scene and it’s likely future development as it continues to absorb cultural elements from across the globe as well as its own domestic voice.
