Namedropping

 “What’s in a name?” The idea has captivated ever since Shakespeare had Juliet ask of Romeo in his tragic tale of star-crossed lovers. Hobart’s game-changing Museum of Old and New Arts digs into what makes the biggest names in the worlds of art and design, whether it’s gleaming sports cars like a Porsche or the surrealist panache of Picasso. Revealing unseen works from founder David Walsh’s collection alongside international loans, Namedropping examines status and the power we place in certain monikers.
