2007 Portia Geach Memorial Award














DiVerse with Eugenie Lee (in white) November 5th at the S.H. Ervin Gallery

DiVerse poets interact with and respond to visual works of art by creating dialogues and conversations through their poetry. Each poet responds individually when they encounter the visual images of other artists. In ‘Face to Face’ women poets from DiVerse engage with portraits created by the artists represented in the Portia Geach Memorial Award Exhibition. This award acknowledges and celebrates the creativity and skill of Australian female portrait artists and these poems have been written especially for the 2007 Exhibition.
