To commemorate the birth of Alan McCulloch one hundred years ago, his daughter Susan McCulloch will share recollections of her father and the legacy he created. Alan McCulloch (1907–1992) was the founding author of McCulloch's Encyclopedia of Australian Art and was one of Australia's foremost art critics for more than 60 years.

Discover how Alan worked towards establishing the Gallery while also writing the first edition of the 'bible' of Australian art in the Shoreham studio built by himself and Arthur Boyd.

Susan McCulloch quoted in article about Queensland Director's job
Susan McCulloch has been quoted in regard to her opinion about who will be the next director of the Queensland Art Gallery in the Courier Mail:
"Art critic and author Susan McCulloch said the rumour mill is running hot about the job.
"It's a bit like musical chairs in the gallery world," she said. "Lynne Seear (QAG assistant director) would be an obvious one to think of. But the odd thing is that deputy directors rarely get to inherit the main job. (Expatriate Australian) Christopher Saines has been mentioned in relation to the job, he's in New Zealand (at Auckland Art Gallery Toi o Tamaki), but I don't know if he would be interested in it.
"Good luck to whoever gets it. It's a fabulous job, a problematic job, I think it could be very hard keeping the money up to scratch. I think the gallery is wonderful, but there are considerable challenges in the job of running it, too," she said."
