| Permanent Collection |
HRAG’s Collection is built around 3 focal points: Australian Photography, the Wimmera region and the Mack Jost Collection. |
The Gallery’s Photography Collection currently numbers over 1000 works. It includes key historical photographers such as Nicolas Caire, J. W. Lindt, David Moore, Olive Cotton, Frank Hurley, Wolfgang Sievers and Carol Jerrems. Contemporary artists include Tony Albert, Pat Brassington, Fiona Foley, Matthew Griffin, Bill Henson, Polixeni Papapetrou and Matthew Sleeth among others. |
The Gallery collects works by artists of the Wimmera region along with works containing regional subject matter or connection. |
Contemporary artworks include those by Anthony Pelchen and Marion Borgelt. Renowned Australian artists including Nicholas Chevalier and Sidney Nolan were also inspired by the landscapes of the Wimmera. |
| HRAG’s Collection of paintings and works on paper is in great measure the result of the generous gifts of Mr Mack Jost AM. The collection includes work by many significant Australian artists from colonial and modern periods, along with more recent acquisitions made through the Trust in line with Jost’s collecting principals.
