OPENING NIGHT Tuesday 1 July 6pm to 8pm

Australian Galleries, Melbourne is thrilled to welcome renowned painter Peter Churcher back to home soil for his latest exhibition of recent works. Now based in Barcelona, Churcher continues to affirm his place as a leading figurative and portraiture artist through a compelling selection of new paintings.

The exhibition features European settings such as Madrid’s Museo del Prado, the Louvre, and the London Underground, with a central work referencing the moving story of Achilles and Patroclus. Through these paintings, Churcher explores themes of longing and loneliness. Complementing the larger works are delicate still lifes and a striking series of shower studies, reflecting Churcher’s ongoing interest in the human figure and the beauty of the physical world.
