GOMA - Brisbane

  • 29 Feb 2012

I spent most of last week in my home town of Brisbane. On my final day I took the bus into town to see the Matisse: Drawing Life exhibition at the Gallery of Modern Art.

This was my first visit to the GOMA.



This was the first art work I passed. I still have no idea why Brisbane is known as Brizvegas.

The gallery is housed in a light filled pavilion overlooking the Brisbane River. A year ago this walkway was flooded.

Did you spot some of the local wild life?



The last piece of artwork I passed.

I hope you enjoyed my little trip to the GOMA. See you all again next week,

    Thank-you for sharing this, Jillian. I really need to take my camera out more often and capture some more of Brisbane! Funny what you DON'T see when you live in a City. ;-)

      Hi Michelle,

      sometimes it's fun to see your city as a tourist. I don't do it enough in Sydney either,

    What great images...and a great building. How did you find the exhibition?

    I really like Brisbane. Nice mix of old and new.

      Hi Sandy,

      I really enjoyed it. It was a pretty comprehensive exhibition of Matisse's works on paper. How I wish I could draw like that.

    GOMA is fantastic, especially the kids program, we used to go all the time when we lived there, I wish we had something like this in perth. Yes a city definitely takes on a new light when you view it from the perspective of a tourist, especially Sydney. You have a beautiful blog, lovely photos and places you visit.
