About
"Brilliant celebrates an astonishing century of gold and silversmithing and jewellery making in colonial and post-Federation Australia. ...Part one, 1851-1900, authored by Powerhouse curator Eva Czernis-Ryl, revisits the story of gold and silversmithing in goldrush Australia. ...Part two, 1901-1950, co-authored by Dr Kenneth Cavill and Eva Czernis-Ryl, provides the long awaited overview of the 'in between' epoch that bridged colonial practices with those of the crafts movement of the second part of the 20th century. ... Brilliant showcases the Powerhouse Museum's renowned collection alongside some of the rarest survivors from public and private holdings across Australia."--Powerhouse Museum website.
