Albert and Barbara Tucker Gallery, Heide Museum of Modern Art

15 March to 7 September 2014

Curator: Kendrah Morgan

Life in Melbourne changed almost overnight, with ‘brownout’ conditions, restrictions on daily activities, the influx of 30,000 American troops, and army conscription for all able-bodied young men — including Albert Tucker and most of the artists supported by John and Sunday Reed at Heide.
