The fifth edition of our annual exhibition in collaboration with Country Style magazine is now open, showcasing new artwork by six leading artists across three Michael Reid spaces.

Titled Our Country, this expansive group show takes viewers beyond the city limits into varied and vividly conjured terrain as artists reflect on their personal ties to the land and the shared experiences it shelters.

At Michael Reid Murrurundi, Our Country occupies the entire gallery space, comprising a collection of Fiona Smith’s exuberant portraits of native birdlife set against graphic, whimsical patterns. These play out alongside sumptuous, large-scale paintings by Baden Croft, whose rhythmic gestures evoke the tangle of floral and arboreal forms found along the Mornington Peninsula.

At Michael Reid Southern Highlands, Jo White and Vicki Yatjiki Cullinan each present new works across the gallery’s top-level and mezzanine spaces, with White delivering brilliant birds-eye impressions of typically Australian suburban and semi-rural streetscapes, and Cullinan exhibiting her sublime, sweeping visions of Indulkana Country.

For the first time, Michael Reid Northern Beaches is among the settings for our Country Style exhibition. Celebrated for her epic, sunburnt topographies, WA artist Carly Le Cerf will is joined by Elizabeth Beaumont, whose earthy, abstract markings effect expressive, emotionally charged portrayals of her NSW Southern Tablelands home.

We look forward to welcoming visitors to our 2024 Country Style show. To enquire about available works of art, please contact danielsoma@michaelreid.com.au
