AUSTRALIAN ART
Unpacking of New Loan Collection The pictures in the loan collection from the National Art Gallery, Sydney, and from many of the leading Australian artists and New Zealand artists now resident in Australia, have arrived at the National Gallery, Wellington. Since Tuesday, the business of unpacking them has been proceeding, and it is expected that the work of hanging them in the main gallery will begin to-day. The ' new collection is said to be one of especial interest for many reasons, one being that it includes the work of many great overseas artists, selected from time to time by the trustees of the National Gallery in Sydney, while it also gives New Zealand its first opportunity of viewing the brushwork of many of the most noted Australian oil and watercolourists.
The date tentatively fixed for the opening of the new show is Friday evening, October 2. The exhibition of New Zealand architectural drawings is to remain on view until the end of November.
