Philanthropists and rag traders Eva and Marc Besen began collecting modern art in the ’50s and amassed one of the country’s finest private collections. Now their labour of love is on permanent display at the TarraWarra Museum of Art, a gallery the duo opened in 2003 within the TarraWarra vineyard. Their collection traces the evolution of contemporary Australian art over more than half a century and features luminaries such as Arthur Boyd (Bride In
A Cave), Fred Williams (Guthega I) and Dale Hickey (Five Kinds Of Religion). This month you can catch Revisited, an anthology of works that have featured in landmark national exhibitions of the past.
