AN exhibition of iconic photographs and stories from Australia‘s outback, bush and coast is showing at the Wangaratta Art Gallery from November 16 2022 until February 12 2023.
A Portrait of Australia: Stories Through the lens of Australian Geographic is touring the country as part of an unprecedented partnership between the National Museum of Australia and Australian Geographic.
The stunning display of large format photographic prints unites the expertise of Australian Geographic‘s acclaimed photographers and the National Museum‘s interpretive storytelling experience. 
National Museum director Dr Mathew Trinca said the exhibition celebrates the bush, the outback, the coast and the people who live and work there.
The photographs will tour Australia for the next two years and were drawn from a book – A Portrait of Australia – which was produced to celebrate 30 years of Australian Geographic‘s magazine.
Venues around the country can select from a collection of 60 photographs to tell their own regional stories – and the stories of the nation.
