Thank you for listening to this track produced by the Art Gallery of South Australia. Join curators Tracey Lock and Elle Freak for a tour of Dangerously Modern, the first major exhibition to focus on the vital role of Australian women in the development of international modernism. Featuring more than 200 works of art, Dangerously Modern invites visitors to embark on a journey of the senses. Artistic explorations of colour, light, form and movement offer moments of contemplation, love, loss and transcendence. Ranging from large public statements to private portrait miniatures, the featured works challenge preexisting notions of ambition and success. They also expand understandings of modern art movements such as realism, impressionism, post-impressionism, cubism and the emergence of abstraction.
