In this episode of NGA Art Talks, Anne O’Hehir, Curator of Photography at the Gallery, speaks to Brenda L. Croft as part of a series of conversations recorded for the exhibition, Women Photographers 1853-2018 – a celebration of how women have shaped and redefined the medium, that recognises the strength of Australian photographers in a global context.


Brenda L. Croft, born in Boorloo/Perth in 1964, of the Gorindji/Malangal/Mudbora peoples, is a leading figure in Australian contemporary art and a prominent advocate within her community, recognised equally for her work as an artist, curator, writer and cultural leader. She grew up in Canberra but moved to Gadigal Nura/Sydney where she built long and important connections to the urban First Nations communities of Redfern and surrounding areas and became a founding member of the Boomalli Aboriginal Artists Cooperative in 1987.


Women Photographers 1853-2018 is on display at the National Gallery until 1 March 2026.
