Take a tour of Australian Love Stories

Kath & Kim, c. 2011 (printed 2020) John Tsiavis. Courtesy of the artist. John Tsiavis . The photograph is part of the Australian Love Stories exhibition at the National Portrait Gallery.

The interesting thing about theAustralian Love Stories exhibition at the National Portrait Gallery is that it's about love in all its forms, including love between friends.

A gloriously garish photograph of Kath and Kim is included in the exhibition, celebrating the friendship of their alter egos, Jane Turner and Gina Riley, who first met in a community theatre group when they were 17.

It's little tidbits like this that you can hear about on one of the daily tours of the exhibition which run daily from 2.30pm to 3pm.

The exhibition - and tours - are on until August 1. Book for the tours at portrait.gov.au.

You can also book by calling 6102 7070 or emailing bookings@npg.gov.au
