Flinders Quartet at QVMAG
Handmark Gallery celebrates artist Michael McWilliams, with an intimate concert by the acclaimed Flinders Quartet set amongst his extraordinary exhibition 'Gentle Protagonist' at the Queen Victoria Museum and Art Gallery in Launceston.
Michael McWilliam's survey of 100 works at QVMAG recognises the extraordinary contribution he has made to the Australian art world. As one of Tasmania's most loved artists, his distinctive and quirky landscapes, are also imbued with a more serious undertone of the human impact on our natural environment.
Flinders Quartet:
Elizabeth Sellars, Wilma Smith, Violins, Helen Ireland, Viola and Zoe Knighton, Cello.
Program:
Fanny Mendelssohn – String Quartet No.1 in E flat Major (1st movement)
Deborah Cheetham Fraillon – “Bungaree”
Dvorak – String Quartet No.14 in A flat Op.105
Why not view the Glover Prize along with Handmark's Annual Landscape Exhibition at the Clarendon Arms in Evandale, and then join us for this special concert on Sunday 16 March, at 2pm. Tickets are limited and available through Eventbrite for $80 (inclusive of booking fee).
