The exhibition pays tribute to Bill Henson, tracking his career and development as an artist over the past 30 years. Says the NGV's Senior Curator of Photography, Dr Isobel Crombie: "I have known Henson and his work since I began as a curator in 1980, so I obviously have seen a lot of his photographs. But what makes this show particularly exciting is that it is the first time that I – and all of us, for that matter – have had the chance to consider the breadth of his work and to see it in context." Where: The Ian Potter Centre: NGV Australia at Federation Square Special event: Bill Henson in conversation. Join Bill Henson, interviewed on stage by NGV Deputy Director Frances Lindsay. (This is an Auslan-interpreted event.) Diary date: Bill Henson: Q&A. A unique opportunity for photography enthusiasts and students to ask Bill Henson about his practice in an informal discussion. (A cash bar operates until 8pm.) Bill Henson: 3 Decades of Photography is an exhibition organised by the Art Gallery of New South Wales, Sydney. More: What's On for this exhibition
