Listen "Dangerously Modern Ep 3: Dorrit Black"
Episode Synopsis
In episode 3 of the series Dangerously Modern, we're following the journey of the magnificent Dorrit Black. Dorrit arrived in London in 1927 and embraced modernism in the new medium of lino cut printmaking. She went on to start her own Modern Art Centre in Sydney in the 1930s and inspired the next generation of artists. But professional rivalry and her status as an ‘unmarried daughter’ would challenge her autonomy and legacy. Produced and presented by Rosa Ellen and commissioned by the Art Gallery of South Australia.After a season at AGSA, the exhibition of Dangerously Modern is on at the Art Gallery of NSW until February 16, 2026.
