What would it mean to eat breakfast with a Brett Whiteley or to pass a Sally Gabori in the corridor? Art, not as something you visit, but something that visits you?

That's the idea behind Artbank, a federal experiment that began in 1980 and now holds more than 11,000 works of Australian contemporary art.

Works that circulate into offices, foyers, and living rooms; into the lives of people who might never have thought of themselves as collectors.

Barry Keldoulis, Senior Art Consultant at Artbank, Ray Wilson, an Artbank client, and artist Monica Rani Rudhar, whose work is in the collection share their experiences with The Art Show.
