Why it's worth checking out
William Robinson Gallery is a QUT gallery presenting exhibitions focused on the work and career of Australian artist William Robinson. Its current exhibition, William Robinson: Reflections, considers the artist’s discovery of multiple perspectives and his use of water as both a visual subject and a metaphor. The exhibition moves through imagery of creek beds and rainforests, offering an insight into Robinson’s approach to Australian landscape painting.
The gallery is located in historic Old Government House beside the Botanic Gardens. While the venue is listed in Kangaroo Point, Brisbane, its website places the gallery next to the gardens in the Brisbane CBD, making it a useful stop for visitors exploring the river and central city precincts. The setting adds a heritage dimension to the gallery experience without taking attention away from the art.
Visitors can also explore virtual tours of current and past exhibitions, which suit those unable to attend in person or anyone wanting to revisit the gallery from elsewhere. The venue is open Tuesday to Friday from 10am to 4pm and Sunday from 10am to 2pm, and is closed on Mondays, Saturdays and public holidays. It should appeal to solo visitors, art students, landscape-painting enthusiasts and anyone interested in Queensland’s visual-art institutions. The gallery’s connection with QUT and its sister venue, QUT Art Museum, also places it within a broader university-led programme of exhibitions and art projects.
