Opening next Saturday, 27 March, ‘On Earth’ is a timely exhibition delving into current discourses around the environment and how the arts may offer a different perspective on our opportunities or challenges, with artworks drawn from the QUT Art Collection shown alongside contemporary Australian artists.

Art, books, music and animals – especially rabbits – were constants in a young Dick Bruna’s life. Check out this incredible image of a one-year-old Bruna with a bunny in his grandparents’ garden: perhaps this is where the idea of Miffy took hold! Don’t miss ‘miffy & friends’, which closes Sunday!

Did you know Dick Bruna’s first foray into book design and illustration was for the ‘Zwarte Beertjes’ (‘Little Black Bears’) range of paperbacks? His cover designs, beginning with the bears, developed into an “original and idiosyncratic style based on economy of form and limited palette” from which we see Miffy emerge, according to QUT Galleries & Museums Director and exhibition curator, Vanessa Van Ooyen. ‘miffy & friends’ closes on 14 March, so pop in this week to pick up a catalogue to learn more!
