Ron Mueck | Pregnant woman

National Gallery of Australia

April 13 2024 — June 23 2025

Ron Mueck – Pregnant woman is on loan from the National Gallery of Australia through the Sharing the National Collection program. Over the year the work will engage with our own collection and exhibitions designed and curated to allow for different conversations and ideas to emerge related to family (in all its diverse forms), motherhood, birth and the marvel of humanity. Public programs and artist commissions will also be delivered with three artists invited to respond with the development of new work. Pregnant woman is a monumental work of art that will provide great focus on representations of the body in art.

Please note: The human body – naked and clothed has been a favoured subject in art for centuries. Ron Mueck’s sculptures are part of this tradition.

This work of art is on long term loan from the National Gallery of Australia with support from the Australian Government as part of Sharing the National Collection.
