VCA GREATS - Patricia Piccinini

Our latest recruitment campaign for the Faculty of Fine Arts and Music, University of Melbourne (formerly VCA & MCM), features stories from their established alumni in the fields of visual art, music, film and television. Our first video profiles the inimitable Patricia Piccinini, who first graduated from the VCA in 1991 with a Bachelor of Arts (Painting) and is now a faculty member.

We met Patricia at her studio in Melbourne before travelling to Brisbane to see her latest exhibition ‘Curious Affection’ at The Gallery of Modern Art (GOMA). In what the gallery has called her “most ambitious exhibition to date”, Patricia has become the first Australian artist to occupy the entire ground floor of GOMA. 

We would like to sincerely thank GOMA and Patricia Piccinini and look forward to sharing her story with you.

Piccinini’s ‘Curious Affection’ will be exhibiting until August 5th, 2018 at The Gallery of Modern Art (GOMA).
