Are We There Yet: An Australian Odyssey featuring Febe Zylstra & WHO

The Board of ANZACC Midwest would like to invite members and friends to an opening night reception for an Australian cultural first in the Midwest. Are We There Yet: An Australian Odyssey featuring Febe Zylstra & WHO will be officially opened by the Consul General of Australia in Chicago, Elizabeth Schick and feature an opportunity to meet the artists.

WHO has sold out exhibitions in Australia, the United States and Europe. However, this showcase marks the Chicago debut collaboration for the two Brisbane-based Australian artists and symbolizes a significant milestone in the development of the Australian art scene in the United States.

Zylstra and WHO first met in 2007. Both artists are accomplished in their individual rights. They have collaborated on two major shows in Australia and are now working side-by-side on various cultural projects, clothing designs and their respective art works. Zylstra and WHO are represented by OUR BIG SPLASH LLC in the Americas and by Joshua Levi Galleries in Brisbane, Australia.
