The Queensland Art Gallery | Gallery of Modern Art (QAGOMA) has announced the acquisition of the striking four-channel video work, in Pursuit of Venus [infected] 2015, following the success of the 2015 QAGOMA Foundation Appeal.
The important work by renowned New Zealand artist Lisa Reihana offers a contemporary, creative response to the popular 19th century panoramic wallpaper, Les Sauvages de la mer Pacifique c.1804, and now, through the generosity of Foundation supporters and the leading contribution of Paul and Susan Taylor, has become part of the Gallery’s permanent Collection.
