Frederick McCubbin - Whisperings in the wattle boughs

The Frederick McCubbin—Whispering in the wattle bough catalogue accompanies two Geelong Gallery curated exhibitions Frederick McCubbin—Whispering in the wattle boughs and Exhume the grave—McCubbin and contemporary art.

The 125 anniversary catalogue includes a foreword by Geelong Gallery Director & CEO Jason Smith and essays by Senior Curator, Lisa Sullivan. The catalogue provides fresh insight into McCubbin’s engagement with the Australian bush and explores the work of six contemporary artists in Exhume the grave—McCubbin and contemporary art and their reflections and re-interpretation of the themes presented in McCubbin’s oeuvre.
