I have loved a Melbourne based Artist since I was a child his name is John Bracks. When I was about 10 yrs old my family came to Melbourne from Adelaide for a holiday and I was taken to the Art Gallery. Two images that have stayed with me to this day were Sidney Nolans Footballer and the one that I stood in front of till my Mum dragged me away was John Bracks Collins Street 5pm I love this painting and think about it often. You can imagine how excited I was when I heard the had purchased a missing John Bracks painting The Bar and that it would be included in the John Bracks Exhibition at the NVG which started last Friday.
Im going to go this weekend can hardly wait!
