Exploring Gauguin’s Intriguing Life and Career in Extensive Canberra Exhibition



The National Gallery of Australia in Canberra is hosting a comprehensive exhibition on the life and work of French Post-Impressionist artist Paul Gauguin. Titled “Gauguin’s World: Tōna Iho, Tōna Ao,” the exhibition explores Gauguin’s final years in French Polynesia and his influence on art history. With over 140 works from public and private collections, including famous pieces like “Young Wrestlers” and “Femmes de Tahiti,” this exhibition offers a rare opportunity to delve into Gauguin’s artistic journey. Curated by Henri Loyrette, the exhibition sheds light on Gauguin’s innovative use of Tahitian language in his work and features objects from Tahiti and Marquesas Islands. Don’t miss this unique chance to immerse yourself in Gauguin’s world at the National Gallery of Australia until October 7, before the exhibition travels to the Museum of Fine Arts in Houston.
