Frank Hurley: Between Peaks and Silence
2026-02-12 08:00 - 2026-05-30 17:00 (Australia/Sydney) | Bank Art Museum Moree, 25 Frome St, Moree, NSW, 2400, Australia
Between Peaks and Silence gathers works by Frank Hurley, one of Australia’s most celebrated and controversial photographers and filmmakers. These photos are rare, luminous studies of place—where land becomes theatre and stillness becomes sound. From the Warrumbungles’ ancient ridgelines to the Blue Mountains’ shadowed caves, from the Derwent’s slow water to Urama Island’s village architecture, Hurley frames each scene with a patient eye for scale, texture and hush. In Antarctica, crevasses open like chapters—beauty edged with risk—reminding us how quickly terrain can turn. Shown together for the first time in more than 30 years, these photographs invite you to look longer: to follow the light, listen for quiet, and feel the world’s vastness in a single image.
