Ground Level

2026 NGV Summer Appeal

This summer, the NGV has an exciting opportunity to acquire three significant works by pioneering women photographers of the early twentieth century: Dora Maar’s Fashion study, 1936, Annemarie Heinrich’s Eve’s apple (La manzana de Eva), 1953, and Anne Brigman’s Quest, 1931, for the NGV Collection.

Support the appeal

Featuring diverse photographic works ranging from portraiture to more experimental modes of image-making, Women Photographers 1900-1975: A Legacy of Light surveys the works of more than seventy women and gender-diverse artists between 1900 and 1975.

Join an NGV voluntary guide for a free tour exploring the unique and diverse perspectives of women photographers against the backdrop of significant social, political and cultural events.

These tours are subject to cancellation and change, please check at the information desk on the day for confirmation of tour times.
