This program of free talks celebrates the rich and diverse exhibition program presented at the Potter. To coincide with our 40th anniversary we will be presenting a series of nine talks on the third Tuesday of the month between March and November 2012.

The talks will focus on a key work in our exhibitions, presented by Potter curatorial staff, university academics and special guest speakers.

In this fourth talk in the series, artist and teacher Helen Brack will be speaking on John Brack's The Queen (1988). A recent donation to the University of Melbourne Art Collection by Helen Brack, the painting forms a major addition to the collection.
