IC.3 » , vi. , _y5 3_ttV / • M Ask someone what comes to mind when they think of Tasmania and there is a good chance the first thing they'll mention is the SISB5 wilderness. This is not surprising when almost half of the state is ancient World Heritage Wilderness, national parks or forest and marine reserves. Some people might also mention Tassie's rich colonial and convict heritage. What is less well known is that there's been a quiet cultural revolution going on in Tasmania. Tasmania, the destination, is changing. Against the well-known background of natural beauty and rich history, a new Tasmania is emerging; one that puts a high value on cultural and artistic endeavours. In Tasmania old world charms are mixing with a new world vision. Tasmania is an island of Inspiration for local artisans and there is a thriving and vibrant art and culture scene with galleries, markets and Australia's largest private museum' of art and antiquities at MONA Museum of Old and New Art which opened in January 2011. From King Island and Stanley to Bruny Island people have found Tasmania the perfect place to practice their skills and talents, whether it be crafting a handmade cheese, harvesting the plumpest oysters, writing a best-selling novel or designing an awardwinning coastal getaway that treads lightly on the landscape. MONA Museum of Old and New Art MONA Museum of Old and New Art opened in January 2011 on the River Derwent just north of Hobart. It houses a diverse collection that ranges from ancient Egyptian mummies to some ofthe world's most Infamous and thought-provoking contemporary art. At a cost of $US72 million, its location on the River Derwent just north of Hobart, the building's subterranean design and the owner's unconventional and challenging curatorial approach make it a must-see for any visitor to Australia. The collection is currently valued at $US96 million, The MONA Museum of Old and New Art has three levels cut Into the triasslc sandstone of the river bank and includes 5,700 square metres (61,354 square feet) of gallery space, of which 1300 square metres (14,000 square feet) are touring galleries built to international museum standards.

Queen Victoria Museum and Art Gallery The Queen Victoria Museum and Art Gallery (QVMAG) in Launceston is Australia's largest regional gallery. The QVMAG enjoys a national profile for its collections of Australian colonial art, decorative arts and design, Tasmanian history, and natural sciences. It is located on two sites - Royal Park and Inveresk. The Royal Park site was purpose-built in 1891 and is one of Australia's oldest museum buildings. Currently closed for a significant heritage refurbishment, it will re-open as a dedicated art gallery in 2011. The Inveresk site, opened in 2001, was once the Launceston Railway Workshops. The original structure has been incorporated into a striking contemporary architectural design that features World-ciass galleries and exhibition spaces. Inveresk also features the Phenomena Factory, Australia's newest and most exciting free-entry interactive science centre, providing hands-on, minds-on, curiosity-on science education for kids of all ages. Inveresk also now has the upgraded Launceston Planetarium and Space Gallery, relocated from its original Royal Park site. This and other exciting projects will reshape the future identity of the QVMAG, define its sites and introduce new programs. www.qvmag.tas.gov.au di5C0Vertasmania.com Tasmania yt» *>_ «F Received by NSD/FARA Registration Unit 05/01/2012 4:09:43 PM ill *_
