Support the oldest and finest public collection of Asian art in Australia. The NGV’s Asian Art Collection has over 6000 works dating from the second millennium BCE to the 21st century. Led by Senior Curator, Wayne Crothers, the Collection reflects the rich diversity of the artistic traditions of Asia and the current artistic, cultural and spiritual links across the region. The NGV has presented many exciting exhibitions such as the 2019 Melbourne Winter Masterpieces exhibitions Terracotta Warriors: Guardians of Immortality in dialogue with Cai Guo-Qiang: The Transient Landscape as well as Japanese Modernism, a 2020 exhibition that drew from the NGV Collection.
