Andrew Rogers: Campus Collection

Deakin University Library, Melbourne Burwood Campus, Building V, 221 Burwood Hwy, Burwood Vic.

In 2023, Andrew Rogers generously gifted 31 sculptures, valued at $6.1 million, to the Deakin University Art Collection. This generous donation is the largest philanthropic gift to the University Art Collection and is an historically significant contribution to the University.  Using this exhibition as a starting point, read about the significance of the sculptures as you start your self guided tour through the works on display at the Melbourne Burwood campus.
