Since winning the Archibald Prize back in 2008, Del Kathryn Barton has built a strong name for herself in the arts world. Now two Archibald Prize wins later, she brings her acclaimed work to ACMI in Oscar Wilde's The Nightingale and the Rose.
Del Kathryn Barton awakens this wondrous short story with renowned filmmaker Brendan Fletcher. The exhibition features a selection of Barton's expressive paintings as well as never before seen props from the production archives.
The animation celebrated its world premier at the 65th Berlin International Film Festival in 2015 and has since won the Film Victoria Erwin Rado Award for Best Australian Short Film.
It is a magnificent display of true creativity and I am excited to see what's next to come.
