Sculpture honouring local artist and benefactor, Max Watters
Muswellbrook artist Max Watters established his subject matter early - the rural landscapes of the Upper Hunter Region - and focused on this setting for most of his career. He was known not only for his artistic talent but also his generous philanthropic nature. While developing his own artistic career Max also began collecting art, eventually amassing one of the most significant collections of contemporary art in regional Australia. In 2004, Max donated his art collection to the Muswellbrook Regional Art Centre so that residents and visitors alike could enjoy in perpetuity his vision: to provide art education for generations to come, to inspire visual awareness and curiosity and to promote cultural tourism in the region.
