The new partnership sees a display of more than 170 original pantings and prints within a series of hotel gallery spaces. Also recently launched are the new Studio Art Suites – a collection of four premium rooms that include original paintings from celebrated Lockhart River (Cape York) artists: Fiona Omeenyo, Patrick Butcher Jnr, Silas Hobson and Rosella Namok. Offering an authentic and highly pleasing in-room experience, the Studio Art Suites offer a wonderful way for guests to connect with Aboriginal art.<\/p>\n

The expanse of art displayed throughout Quest Albury on Townsend is extraordinary – and it begins as soon as you step into the foyer. Victorian Latje Latje and Yorta Yorta artists Trevor \u2018Turbo\u2019 Brown and Craig Charles are showcased with an exhibition of work titled Dhungala; hanging in the large level one atrium main gallery space. Here natural light floods in, amplifying the colour, light and movement within the paintings. Craig and Turbo\u2019s work depict Murray River landscapes and its animals. Other works from Jack Macale (Kimberley, WA) and Michelle and Gabriella Possum (Central Dessert) expand the collection with their vibrant prints and large scale canvases livening up level two corridors and stairwell and lift areas. In fact there\u2019s so much art throughout the hotel, it\u2019s constantly surprising just how exciting walking the halls can be.<\/p>\n

Quest Albury on Townsend features free undercover onsite parking, a gym on level one, a range of conference and lounge facilities; and the new Dhungala Conference Room featuring a substantial gallery of works expanding upon the main gallery exhibition.
