Art for takayna
Bob Brown Foundation
7 – 22 June 2024, 10am – 5.30pm
Opening Event: 6 June, 2024 – 6pm
Join us at the Long Gallery for Art for Takayna 2024, where artists’ works highlight the unique beauty and urgent conservation needs of Takayna.
‘Art for Takayna 2024’ at the Long Gallery is a powerful display at the intersection of visual arts and environmental activism, showcasing the natural splendour of Tasmania’s Takayna / Tarkine and the critical conservation efforts it demands.
This year’s exhibition brings together a diverse group of artists whose works—ranging from vivid paintings and intricate sculptures to evocative films and photography—explore and celebrate Takayna’s unique landscapes and rich biodiversity that are under threat from mining and logging.
As you wander through the gallery, you’ll be drawn into a world of powerful art that is a call to action — urging us to protect these irreplaceable natural treasures. The exhibition is designed to provoke thought, evoke emotion, and inspire advocacy. Each piece tells a story, and each brushstroke underscores a plea: to protect wild and ancient Takayna / Tarkine.
Join us at Bob Brown Foundation’s 2024 Art for Takayna exhibition.
