The Visual Arts Network actively supports the professional development of Northern Rivers artists through its Curatorial Panels. These panels provide visual artists with an opportunity to have their work critically assessed by high profile curators and gallery directors from around Australia. Here each visiting 'Guest Curator' selects one outstanding artist to be featured on the site, and discusses their work.
