the level of success achieved by the gallery
in 2011 would not have been possible
without the considerable support provided
by the Queensland government, especially
anna bligh,
mp
, premier of Queensland and
minister for reconstruction; and rachel
nolan,
mp
, minister for Finance, natural
resources and the arts. our thanks are
also extended to ken smith and John
bradley, former and current directors-
general, department of the premier and
cabinet; leigh tabrett, psm, deputy
director-general, arts Queensland; and the
executive and staff of arts Queensland and
events Queensland for their support.
the Queensland government, through
events Queensland, provided specific
funding support to the ‘surrealism: the
poetry of dreams’ and ‘matisse: drawing
life’ exhibitions and we could not have
realised these substantial projects
without this support. we also thank the
australian government, who supported
the ‘contemporary miniatures’ travelling
exhibition through the Visual arts and
craft strategy.
