About the exhibition
Vision 2020 is an upcoming travelling exhibition of forty 50x50cm textile works interpreting the theme of vision on tour in 2020/2021. There are 40 artists involved, as listed below, from Australia, New Zealand, the United States and Europe.
Vision 2020 is the fourth touring exhibition by Brenda Gael Smith as an independent curator. She has a proven track record in delivering high quality, engaging exhibits that have been exhibited in regional galleries across Australia and textile events internationally. See:
