This exhibition celebrates Maribyrnong City Council's photography collection, bringing together generations of photographers who invite you to look closer, think differently, and rediscover the familiar.
Works by Suzie Blake, Wilfred Disney Chapman, Jody Haines, Grant Hobson, Karenne Ann, Anna Kiparis, Viv Méhes, Kip Scott, Gayle Slater, Simon Terrill, Pierre Vairo, James Voller, Sarah Watt and Ammar Yonis are exhibited along with documentary images by unidentified early twentieth century photographers.
While some photographers use the camera to record their environments, others adopt it as a tool for creation. Examining the parallels, differences and connections between constructed and documentary photography and exploring artists' intentions and processes, The Art of Observation considers not just what you see but how you see.
Open for self-guided visits. Free curated tours are offered on the first Thursday of each month. Visit their website for more details.
