VCA graduate show 2009

artists, spaces

25 November 2009

On Monday 23 November 2009 the Victorian College of the Arts (VCA), which is part of The University of Melbourne, opened its doors to the public, art lovers, families of art students and former VCA people to showcase a year of work from all mediums: painting, photography, printmaking, drawing, sculpture and spatial practice.

Having completed my Bachelor of Fine Arts (BFA) at the VCA, it's always fun to go back and walk the grounds where I once played.

The VCA is an incubator for future creators and Monday was its chance to show off very talented folk. Large installation work filled the hallways, and it was good to see very beautiful drawings... oh and a few paintings... not many, but a few, on the walls.

The best of the best was on show in the Margaret Lawrence Gallery, and digital media was on display in the Photography department.

If you have a chance, it's worth going to Southbank (view location on Google Maps) to have a wander around.
