Sculpture is the art of the hole and the lump. Auguste Rodin
Many sculptors are rolling from the indoor exhibition at McClelland
Gallery to our outdoor exhibition in the Carlton Gardens for the Melbourne
International Flower and Garden Show.
We have had a presence at MIFGS since its inception in 1996. This
