đź’š ABOUT THE ARTIST
Prudence Flint is an artist based in Melbourne. Over three decades Flint has made work that is populated by mostly female figures in interior spaces and occasionally outdoors. Without specific narratives but full of psychological richness, Flint’s paintings of women escape easy interpretation.
Flint has held solo exhibitions in London, Dublin, Sydney, Melbourne, Canberra and Hobart and has exhibited in major state and regional galleries. She is a seven-time finalist in the Archibald Prize. She won the Len Fox Painting Award (2016), the Portia Geach Memorial Award (2010), and the Doug Moran National Portrait Prize (2004). Her work is held by collections including the National Gallery of Victoria, Museum of Contemporary Art Australia, City of Port Phillip, Artbank, BHP Billiton, City of Gold Coast, University of Wollongong, Castlemaine Art Museum, X Museum, Queensland Art Gallery | Gallery of Modern Art and numerous private collections.��

đź’š ABOUT THE DISPLAY
Prudence Flint and John Brack: ALL ANGLES brings together, for the first time, the work of two acclaimed Melbourne artists, Prudence Flint and John Brack. Known for their distinctive styles and refined painterly techniques, both artists explore the human figure with precision and psychological insight, rendering figures with deeply symbolic colour palettes and sharp lines. Focusing on works developed through the close observation of models in their studios, this display spans paintings and works on paper that reflect each artist’s sustained engagement with the figure.
Together, the works of John Brack and Prudence Flint offer a compelling conversation across time, rooted in shared dedication to the human figure, the studio practice, and the complexities of representing women. In bringing their works into dialogue, the display invites fresh perspectives on both artists’ practices.
