Probably the best exhibition I have seen in Australia (coming from a fan of Vincent van Gogh and Paul Cezanne). Masterpieces from Paris has 9 Paul Gauguins, 7 Van Goghs and 8 Cezannes. So it's more than one or two good paintings thrown in with a bunch of weaker paintings like the usual "blockbuster" exhibition. The Van Goghs alone are worth making the effort to see the exhibition.

It has been called the "most valuable collection of art ever to be exhibited in Australia."

The works come from the Musee d'Orsay in Paris and will be on display at the National Gallery of Australia in Canberra until April.
