Although Memo Review has already examined an exhibition from the National Gallery of Victoria's quadruple billing of female Australian artists (see (Paris Lettau's)(https://www.memoreview.net/author:Paris-Lettau) review of (Our knowing and not knowing: Helen Maudsley)(https://www.memoreview.net/blog/our-knowing-and-not-knowing-helen-maudsley-at-ngv-australia-by-paris-lettau)), I believe that as the arts community has directly requested more representation of contemporary women artists at the NGV, we should also respond with extended critical attention. Plus, there are few exhibitions that the reader can visit in early January, during the traditional art gallery shut-down period. The NGV, however, is open either side of Christmas Day, so with that in mind we turn to Del Kathryn Barton's show, The Highway is a Disco. Depending on how cynical you want to be, you can look at four simultaneous solo exhibitions of living female Australian artists as an abundance of gifts, or a suspiciously tidy offering to appease the chorus of unimpressed women in the Australian arts scene. While I am one of their number, and am nothing but apprehensive about the grouping of these particular four women, whatever, it's Christmas, just enjoy the reprieve from the #cockfest.
