Art: Creative Practice Excursion – Top Arts and Kusama

Essential to the senior students curriculum, Year 11 and Year 12 Creative Practice students visited both the NGV Australia and NGV International to view the Top Arts Exhibition and Yayoi Kusama’s exhibition on Wednesday 26 March.

Students also viewed folios in preparation for final art resolutions, from a selection of students, as well as heard about the Tops Arts Exhibition and selection process.

The afternoon was spent attending and being immersed in the Yayoi Kusama exhibition and exploring the extensive collection, including painting, sculpture and installations. This was a fantastic opportunity to experience artworks from a highly accomplished contemporary international artist, and to gain insight into her working practices.

This was a great opportunity to fully focus on Art, both locally and Internationally, in both NGV spaces, as well as experiencing some of the fanfare associated with these wonderful exhibitions in the Melbourne setting.

Student Reflection: Hazel Smith Year 12

The art excursion was a very valuable and enlightening experience for my class. Getting to view 'Top Arts' and looking through the work of other students our age, was very insightful. This was inspiring for us, and a great way to connect with the environment and intentions of these artists.
