  Introduction

In this section, you will find artists talking about their work and sharing their thoughts on the role of contemporary art in today's world. It provides personal insights into why artists create, their choice of materials, the major influences on their work, and the effect that new technologies have had on their work.

The Meet the Artist interviews were conducted over the past ten years while the artists visited the National Gallery to install their work. It introduces viewers to the richness and diversity of the Gallery's contemporary art collection.

In order to keep our viewers informed about issues in contemporary art, the Meet the Artist program will be continually up-dated. We hope that it will provide a context for an understanding of the art of today.
