DIRECTOR’S WORD

The ongoing generosity and support of our donors and Foundation Members ensures the National Gallery of Australia can continue to prosper and meet the demands of an ever-changing world. In this year of disruption, we are grateful to you, our community of supporters, and thank you for your dedication and trust in the work we do as the custodians of Australia’s national art collection. Through your support, we can continue to acquire outstanding works of art, produce and curate compelling artistic programs, and inspire audiences of all ages through the power of art. For current and future generations, 2020 will be a turning point from what once was, to what will be. While the future is undetermined, we listen to the voices of artists who through their work, help us to interrogate and understand our experiences, while illuminating the way forward. Over the coming pages you will read more about the ways that private giving has supported our ambitious goals. For example, on pages 22-25 we highlight our year-long Know My Name fundraising campaign and how, with the support of our donors, we have begun to increase the representation of women artists across our artistic program. Our Education Patron Tim Fairfax AC, and Principal Patron for Know My Name contributed a leading gift in May 2019 that was quickly followed by donations, at all levels towards the initiative. We reached our bold fundraising target for Know My Name by June 2020, and are deeply grateful to all major donors, exhibition patrons, and the 464 donors who supported the collective fundraising campaign. Philanthropy enables the Gallery to highlight the stories and histories of all Australians and embrace global ideas, challenge our audiences, disrupt conventions with new concepts, and present new forms of cultural expression. We are grateful to those who not only help us build our incredible collections through donations of works of art, or by supporting acquisitions, but who also help us to deliver education, access and outreach programs, and the presentation of exhibitions onsite, online and on tour. Both collectors and artists generously donate works of art that help us to build Australia’s national art collection with works of global significance. We are proud to present some of these works in this report. Amongst many important donations,
