Views of Geelong and Beyond—Treasures from the Collection

23 Aug 2025 – 9 Nov 2025

This exhibition includes some of the nationally significant works that distinguish the Geelong Gallery collection. The Gallery’s holdings represent the works of Australia’s most important and critically acclaimed artists—especially those who transformed the way we see and understand Australian landscapes, our sense of place and connection to Country. Views of Geelong and Beyond represents major acquisitions, images recording Geelong’s history and development since European settlement, and artists’ fascination with the natural beauty of our region, as well as landscapes further afield.
