Latrobe Regional Gallery - October 2026

Palm Tree Love

Palm Tree Love gathers eleven Gippsland artists, alongside works from the Latrobe Regional Gallery collection, each responding to the poetics, memories and interpersonal and inventive relationships formed around regional landmarks. Each of the works imaginatively explores township and the vessels of a landmark’s identity and character. Some landmarks are iconic and widely known; others are niche, held only in generational memory or passed down through communal stories and limited texts.

Open to November 15
in Galleries 1 and 2.

Geo-luminescence

Geo-luminescence is a material exploration of the capacity of slaked lime to echo its’ own origins in the deep sea, its’ uplift into the air to become mountainous, and its’ dissolution to form karst landscape above and below ground. Geo-luminescence is a material exploration by artist Sarah Tomasetti of the exchange of matter and light, where water and sedimentary stone meet, where one becomes the other and plant and animal life grows.

Open to November 15 in Gallery 3.

Ukiyo-e: Responding to Tradition

Ukiyo-e: Responding to Tradition brings together Japanese woodblock prints from Latrobe Regional Gallery’s collection with a contemporary response by TWOONE / Hiroyasu Tsuri. TWOONE has spent time in Latrobe City and is weaving the local flora and fauna into his grand mural response to the collection. Spanning theatre, landscape, beauty and legend, the exhibition celebrates the enduring energy of Japanese print culture and its continuing influence on contemporary art.

Open to November 26 in Gallery 4

Robert Lee Davis: Between the lands of now and then

Robert Lee Davis: Between the lands of now and then, is an earnest and powerful exhibition by American Australian artist Robert Lee Davis. The exhibition presents an imaginative Myriorama—a myriad of pictures and artworks— deeply rooted in storytelling, reflection, and communitydriven anecdotes. Together, these works seek to replenish our understanding of how the lands we inhabit retain memory and how they bear witness to what we have achieved, removed and inhabited.

Open to November 29 in Gallery 5.

Catherine Bainbridge: Continuum

Catherine Bainbridge: Continuum is a gentle yet explorative tribute to East Gippsland, its waterways, lands and skies. Spanning eight decades of works, the exhibition evokes the artist’s connection to the elements and ecosystems from her youth to adulthood.

Open to November 29 Gallery 6.
