NEW APPOINTMENT: Alisa Bunbury has been Curator of Prints and Drawings at the NGV since 2002 and prior to that was Associate Curator of Prints, Drawings and Photographs at the Art Gallery of South Australia. In 1998 she was Harold Wright Scholar at the British Museum, after completing a Masters degree and Postgraduate Diploma in Art Curatorial Studies, both at the University of Melbourne. She has curated many exhibitions presenting art ranging from the Renaissance to contemporary Australian works on paper, and has written and presented on a wide range of topics. In the last decade she has specialised in early colonial Australian art, co-curating the exhibition 'This Wondrous Land: Colonial art on paper' (NGV, 2011) and the forthcoming survey 'Colony: Australia 1788-1861' (NGV, 2018). Through her expertise, in recent years the NGV has significantly enhanced its representation of Australian art from this period. We look forward to her joining us on November 13 as our Grimwade Curator.
