Excursion to Melbourne CBD

First I would like to say a big THANKYOU to David Trout for organising this excursion for us.

We started out at the National Gallery of Victoria and saw some amazing pieces including one of my personal favourites Picasso! Took alot of photos here but then unfortunately my battery died :(

After the gallery we had a quick lunch break then moved onto ACMI. I thought ACMI was the best part of the whole day, had an ball with all the interactive things they had there! Myself, Mia and Jarryd, classmates of mine decided to give the Matrix thing a go, the videos turned out great! Here is the best one we came up with!

After ACMI we went to Hosier Lane just off Flinders Street. This is where alot of the famous graffiti pieces live and constantly change. My classmate Tom was kind enough to lend me one of his spare cameras since mine was dead, so took a decent ammount of photos at Hosier Lane including a Hockney piece will I will post later on.

Then we headed over to RMIT to have a look at their gallery which involved Japanese Anime from 1950's - 2000's and another area dedicated to China and Revolution: History, Parody and Memory in Contemporary Art. 


All in all was a fantastic day!
