Curated by Artspace, the exhibition draws upon previous recipients of the prestigious Scholarship – now accomplished artists and key figures pushing the boundaries of contemporary art today. Early works will be displayed alongside recent projects to highlight how an artist’s practice develops over time through research, experimentation and refinement; a process of rediscovering the past in order to look to the future. 2012-04-12T00:00:00+10:002012-04-12T00:00:00+10:00http://mgnsw.org.au/about_us/committeesMuseums & Galleries of NSWinfo@mgnsw.org.auhttp://mgnsw.org.auM&G NSW currently has four committees:2012-04-12T00:00:00+10:002012-04-12T00:00:00+10:00http://mgnsw.org.au/about_us/staffMuseums & Galleries of NSWinfo@mgnsw.org.auhttp://mgnsw.org.auMichael Rolfe
