This year the National Gallery of Australia’s Annual Lecture will be presented by leading Australian artist, Lindy Lee.
With a practice spanning more than four decades, Meanjin/Brisbane-born Lee uses her work to explore her Chinese ancestry through Taoism and Ch’an (Zen) Buddhism — philosophies that see humanity and nature as inextricably linked.
The Annual Lecture coincides with the opening of Lindy Lee’s new immersive, public sculpture, Ouroboros and her solo exhibition, Lindy Lee.
Lindy Lee is a free exhibition on display at the National Gallery from 25 Oct 2024 – June 2025. Annual Lecture ticket holders are invited to a special after hours preview of the exhibition before the lecture from 5pm.
First presented in 1983, the Annual Lecture supports the National Gallery’s mission to lead the national cultural agenda through art. Coinciding with the opening of the National Gallery in October 1982, the Annual Lecture invites leading art world thinkers to present new ideas in the field of art and art history.
Online bookings close at 2pm on the day of the event. Ticket holders will receive a link via email to access the livestream by 4pm on the day of the event. Please contact the Gallery on +61 2 6240 6411 or [email protected] if you do not receive your viewing link.
