This piece is about an exhibition that closed 28th July 2024. Cutting Through Time—Cressida Campbell, Margaret Preston, and the Japanese Print
The curatorial team at Geelong did a marvellous job with the exhibition of Cressida Campbell, Japanese prints plus Margaret Preston. This was definitely one worth making the trip out of Melbourne to take in. Easy to rate: 😎 😎 😎 😎 😎 (five out of five)
The selection of Campbell’s work made for an engaging exhibition. As for how these three sets of work referenced each other, I leave that to John McDonald who has written two very good reviews. See them further down this page.
To quote from the 2023 National Gallery of Australia exhibition catalogue: “Cressida Campbell reminds us that there is much beauty and solace to be found in the everyday.”
