Limited Print Run Exhibition Book

Showcasing more than 300 diverse works, this timely exhibition brings the women of the Boyd family into focus.

As artists, designers, photographers, and creative collaborators, their contributions—though historically less celebrated than those of their male counterparts—remain deeply influential.

As painters, designers, photographers, and collaborators, the Boyd women—whose contributions have often been overshadowed by their male counterparts—played a vital role in shaping Australian art.

The exhibition book features a foreword from Bundanon CEO Rachel Kent, essays by curator Sophie O’Brien; writer Jennifer Higgie; Helen Hughes, Deputy Head of Department and Senior Lecturer, Monash University; Anne Ryan, Curator Australian Art, Art Gallery of New South Wales; and Professor Lisa Slade, Hugh Ramsay Chair in Australian Art History, The University of Melbourne.
