More about the Art Gallery of New South Wales from Wikipedia:
The Art Gallery of New South Wales (AGNSW), located in The Domain in Sydney, New South Wales, Australia, is the most important public gallery in Sydney and one of the largest in Australia.
The Gallery's first public exhibition opened in 1874. Admission is free to the general exhibition space, which displays Australian art (from settlement to contemporary), European and Asian art. A dedicated Asian Gallery was opened in 2003.
On 24 April 1871, a public meeting was convened in Sydney to establish an Academy of Art 'for the purpose of promoting the fine arts through lectures, art classes and regular exhibitions.'
From 1872 until 1879 the Academy's main activity was the organisation of annual art exhibitions. The first exhibition of colonial art, under the auspices of the Academy, was held at the Chamber of Commerce, Sydney Exchange in 1874.
In 1875 Apsley Falls by Conrad Martens, commissioned by the trustees and purchased for £50 out of the first government grant of £500, became the first work on paper by an Australian artist to be acquired by the Gallery.
The Gallery’s collection was first housed at Clark’s Assembly Hall in Elizabeth Street where it was open to the public on Friday and Saturday afternoons.
The collection was relocated in 1879 to a wooden annexe to the Garden Palace built for the Sydney International Exhibition in the Domain and was officially opened as The Art Gallery of New South Wales. In 1882, the first Director, Eliezer Montefiore and his fellow trustees opened the art gallery on Sunday afternoons from 2 pm to 5 pm. Montefiore believed:
... the public should be afforded every facility to avail themselves of the educational and civilising influence engendered by an exhibition of works of art, bought, moreover, at the public expense.
The destruction of the Garden Palace by fire in 1882 placed pressure on the government to provide a permanent home for the national collection.
In 1883 private architect John Horbury Hunt was engaged by the trustees to submit designs. The same year there was a change of name to The National Art Gallery of New South Wales. The Gallery was incorporated by The Library and Art Gallery Act 1899.
In 1895, the new Colonial Architect, Walter Liberty Vernon (1846–1914), was given the assignment to design the new permanent gallery and two picture galleries were opened in 1897 and a further two in 1899. A watercolour gallery was added in 1901 and in 1902 the Grand Oval Lobby was completed.
Over 300,000 people came to the Gallery during March and April 1906 to see Holman Hunt’s painting The Light of the World. In 1921, the inaugural Archibald Prize was awarded to W.B. McInnes for his portrait of architect Desbrowe Annear. The equestrian statues The offerings of peace and The offerings of war by Gilbert Bayes were installed in front of the main facade in 1926.[5] James Stuart MacDonald was appointed director and secretary in 1929. In 1936 the inaugural Sulman Prize was awarded to Henry Hanke for La Gitana. John William Ashton was appointed director and secretary in 1937.
The first woman to win the Archibald Prize was Nora Heysen in 1938 with her portrait Mme Elink Schuurman, the wife of the Consul General for the Netherlands. The same year electric light was temporarily installed at the Gallery to remain open at night for the first time. In 1943 William Dobell won the Archibald Prize for Joshua Smith, causing considerable controversy. Hal Missingham was appointed director and secretary in 1945.
In 1958 the Art Gallery of New South Wales Act was amended and the Gallery’s name reverted to The Art Gallery of New South Wales.

I am a fan of art and it's fascinating to see them specially those that
have been created long ago say 15th century or as early as humans
started making arts as a depiction of their imagination and the things
they saw around them.
Art Gallery of New South Wales is one of the free places where you
can visit if you are into arts they have paintings dating back up to
14th or 15th century and it's just in the middle of the city of Sydney.
It is situated just a couple of steps from the Botanical Garden as well
as the Archibald Fountain, it was established in 1871.
I hope you enjoy watching our vlogs subscribe and let us know how
we can improve our vlogs.

SYDNEY, Unique ABORIGINAL ART, Museum of New South Wales (Australia)
Unique Aboriginal Art, Museum of New South Wales (SYDNEY, Australia)! Let's visit this very unique exhibit of Aboriginal Art, not seen anywhere else in the world, displayed at the Museum of New South Wales in beautiful Sydney, Australia. Vic Stefanu, vstefanu@yahoo.com. Sydney is the state capital of New South Wales and the most populous city in Australia and Oceania. Located on Australia's east coast, the metropolis surrounds the world's largest natural harbour, and sprawls towards the Blue Mountains to the west.
Australia is a country and continent surrounded by the Indian and Pacific oceans. Its major cities – Sydney, Brisbane, Melbourne, Perth, Adelaide – are coastal. Its capital, Canberra, is inland. The country is known for its Sydney Opera House, the Great Barrier Reef, a vast interior desert wilderness called the Outback, and unique animal species like kangaroos and duck-billed platypuses.
Art Conversations: Art Gallery of New South Wales
Helen Burton, Macquarie Group Collection Director and Maud Page, Deputy Director and Director of Collections of AGNSW discuss the evolution of Australian art and the modern day gallery experience.

Artists submit their entries to the Art Gallery of NSW
Every year hundreds of Australian painters submit their entries to the Art Gallery of NSW in Sydney to go into the running for the Archibald, Wynne and Sulman prizes. On 3 April 2019 I intercepted 11 artists handing over their paintings and asked them about their work. You can hear interviews with many leading, mid career and emerging Australian painters on the Talking with Painters podcast (talkingwithpainters.com link below and however you listen to your podcasts). There are also lots of videos of them in their studios here on this YouTube channel. Just click on the channel to see them all. And why not subscribe to keep updated with videos as soon as they're uploaded? Thanks for watching!
