Antarctica & the Southern Ocean is an art exhibition celebrating the important connection of the icy continent to Hobart.
Since the early days of Antarctic exploration the big red ships have departed from Hobart tackling the mighty seas of the Southern Ocean for their journeys of scientific research. With global warming this research is more important than ever. Many artists and photographers have also recorded and interpreted this last frontier.
Artists throughout Tasmania have been invited to be part of this exhibition which crosses all mediums and genres.
