Hi Rob Thank you for your excellent work on the NGV entry in Wikipedia ( http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/National_Gallery_of_Victoria ). I just showed it to some of the NGV Multimedia team, and they were very impressed. Please pass our thanks onto the other contributors, if that is possible. Jonathan O'Donnell, NGV Multimedia

[edit] National Gallery of Victoria Art School

Just updating the Sidney Nolan article and there seems no article on the National Gallery of Victoria Art School which at the very least could be a sub-section of this article. Notable alumni other then Nolan [1] include (based on a Google search):

• David Boyd attended National Gallery of Victoria Art School 1944-45. He was recognised as a master potter ...
• Margaret Preston - in 1893 enrolled at the National Gallery of Victoria Art School
• Fred Williams - Williams attended the National Gallery of Victoria Art School for his initial training at age 16.
• Emanuel Phillips Fox - After completing studies at the National Gallery of Victoria Art School, Fox travelled to Europe in 1887 to further his training
• Arthur Streeton - Streeton trained at the National Gallery of Victoria's art school but soon tired of academic instruction
