Gladstone Art Gallery and Museum hosts Australien Future – tales of migration

Friday night 12th April – 25th May 2019

Gladstone Regional Art Gallery & Museum, Cnr Goondoon and Bramston Str, Gladstone

Monday – Sat 10 am – 5 pm

The gallery has acquired the work ‘First Home Gladstone’ for their collection and it’s very fitting it remain with the gallery as it depicts the house my dad’s family settled in on arrival from the Netherlands in 1955. The house no longer exists but it remains a part of the history of Gladstone. My family gifted the gallery with a copy of my Grandfathers film which documented the whole journey from Rotterdam to Gladstone and from which many of the paintings in this exhibition were based on.
