Bridging the Wild

RACV City Club, Gallery Lounge
23 June - 3 September 2023

Anita Beaney, David Keeling, Rosemary Laing, Mandy Martin, Jan Senbergs and Philip Wolfhagen

Bridging the Wild is inspired by Mandy Martin’s artwork of the same name, which examines how artistic traditions form a ‘bridge’ for viewers to understand the Australian landscape. This exhibition is drawn from the RACV Art Collection, showcasing the breadth of artists we have collected over the past 20 years.

These artworks form a bridge or an entry point to interrogate the world around us. From entering a manicured garden, to exploring our colonial past, to seeking the vast horizon, we are spirited away to a new wilderness - each worthy of investigation.
