Short lectures by former Australian Greens leader Dr Bob Brown and exhibition curator Matthew Jones, introducing the National Library of Australia's exhibition 'Dombrovksis: Journeys into the Wild.'
Peter Dombrovskis was one of the world’s foremost wilderness photographers. His powerful, reflective and deeply personal images of the unique Tasmania wilderness had a lasting impact, changing the way Australians think about their environment. The National Library has over 3,000 Dombrovskis transparencies in its collection, and has printed 70 of the best for a special exhibition in tribute to this remarkable man, the most complete survey of his work to date in Australia.
Hosted by the Friends of the National Library
