And it is only appropriate that "The Argonauts" will voyage home to the Queensland Art Gallery (which has purchased the remainder of the work) for the Asia-Pacific Triennial next year. The event will help launch their new Gallery of Modern Art, and there is talk of a Fairweather Room for the existing gallery spaces.
