Very informative and well done gallery. I wish I had kids so they could use the kids creative room! Looks awesome.The gallery was so good I wished it was bigger! The fact that it is free makes it even better of course ;)
This gallery is well located in the main street. It has a lovely serene atmosphere and is large enough to display some interesting pieces but small enough to hold the kid's attention for long enough to get around. Moo is all for showcasing local artworks and having different artists and works on display, however it is usually the permanent aquistions of a gallery which interest the visitor. Warrnambool is noted for it's shipwreck history and yet at least one of the most well known works relating to the wreck of the Glen Ard are "in storage". Moo suggests the curator has a think about what vistors want when they come to the gallery and let people know what they have on offer relating to the history of the area . It seems to me that the links with Flagstaff Hill could definitely be strengthened in this regard. Moo is also very keen on gallery shops and this one is lovely. Worth a visit.
It was great to see an unusual exhibition in a regional gallery. It was also appreciated that it was open on a Sunday of a long weekend.
It was ok nice being free and the toilets were very clean and new. Very small amount of art and it seemed most was lent from national gallery of victoria. Good location near the library
A great and varied collection and the added bonus of some consistently good visiting exhibitions. Good to see regional galleries doing well. Make sure you visit when in Warrnambool.
A wonderful time spent viewing Ron's works from over the past 40 years. Most enjoyable. Ron gives a brilliant pastel ( no pastel colours here!) interpretation of local coastal stacks. Well done to the curators.
Its Free! and the work is great and diverse. The gallery also has a kids room for the littlies to draw, never seen this before.
Brilliant exhibition featuring work by Glenn Morgan currently on display. Didn't know of Glenn's work before this visit but blown away by it. Definitely recommend a visit.
A nice building but a brief visit is all it requires to view the collection. You can see the scope for developing into a nice regional gallery
Culture for Free? Sure. Established in 1886, the Warrnambool Art Gallery offers a diverse collection of artworks, from elegant European salon paintings to the Avant-garde modernism of the Angry Penguins.Artworks range from the romanticised colonial landscapes of Eugene Von Guerard and Louis Buvelot, to contemporary Australian printmaking by Juan Davila, Barbara Hanrahan and Ray Arnold. An exciting new experience is "Flora non Evidens by Karen Richards". Put on a miners style lamp on you head and get immersed in this instillation.
