The Agapitos/Wilson Annual
In recent years James Agapitos (1927-2007) and his partner Ray Wilson donated a significantly unique collection of Australian surrealist art to the National Gallery of Australia. The exhibition Different Tracks  features key works from an additional collection of which the late James and Ray had become passionate; a diverse collection of contemporary Australian Aboriginal artists and includes works by Patrick Tjungurrayi, Doreen Reid Nakamarra, Ningura Napurrula and Emily Kame Kngwarreye.
