It gives me great pleasure to welcome you to the Deakin University Art Collection. The Deakin University Art Collection has been in existence since the University’s inception and represents works of excellence and significance in a wide range of mediums, principally by Australian contemporary artists. Maintaining and growing this Collection demonstrates the University’s interest in the study, patronage and advancement of the visual arts in Australia.We hope you enjoy finding out more about the works on display at the Deakin University Waurn Ponds Estate.  For more information on our programs, exhibitions and the collection please visit our website at deakin.edu.au/art-collection or follow us on Instagram, Facebook or Twitter. Leanne WillisSenior Manager, Art Collection and Galleries.
