Your move: Australian artists play chess

Inspired by the international exhibition The Art of Chess, Bendigo Art Gallery commissioned thirteen of Australia’s leading contemporary artists make a work in response to the game of chess. Michael Doolan, Lionel Bawden and Kate Rohde were each invited to make a work for the show, Your move: Australian artists play chess, and was exhibited late last year at the Bendigo Art Gallery.

The exhibition is now touring and will open today at UQ Art Museum, until April 24 2011 before touring to McClelland Gallery + Sculpture Park, Victoria and the Samstag Museum, South Australia.
