The Tasmanian Art Teachers Association Inc. (TATA) invites members and non-members to a special event exploring the latest exhibition at MONA; Simon Denny's: MINE. This is the latest exhibition at MONA. You can also enjoy the work of alternative artists from the 19th, 20th and 21st centuries. ‘Mona plays mineshaft in this new exhibition by New Zealand artist Simon Denny, revolving around mining as a reflection of hope and anxiety about the environment, technology, and development’. (https://mona.net.au/museum/exhibitions/mine#the-exhibition) After lunch, there will be a Q & A with an opportunity to discuss the exhibition and what is coming up next at MONA with the curatorial team. It is recommended that where possible you view the exhibition before the Q & A, but there will be time to revisit the show after this session. This special event represents a valuable Professional Learning opportunity for TATA members to engage with ideas and artworks and catch up with colleagues in an inspiring setting.
