A4AXMH - Licenced Caption National Gallery of Victoria in Federation Square Melbourne Australia Description Since 1861, the National Gallery of Victoria has been displaying art works for the enjoyment of the community. In the mid-1990s, the gallery acknowledged that its St Kilda Road building could no longer successfully meet the demands of its growing collection and extensive exhibitions schedule. The Victorian State Government agreed to an extensive redevelopment of the site, and also contribute towards the funding of a second NGV building at Federation Square. The Collection is now split between The Ian Potter Centre: NGV Australia at Federation Square, home of Australian art, and NGV International at St Kilda Road, the new redeveloped building dedicated to the gallery's magnificent international artworks Keywords NGV, SBS, angle, architecture, arresting, art, awesome, bold, brick, broadcasting, building, cables, cafe, communications, conspicuous, contemporary, contravercial, creation, disjointed, dominating, exterior, eye, catching, facia, funky, groovy, interesting, messy, metal, non, linear, office, prominent, relax, shape, shiny, sitting, sky, skyscraper, steps, tall, tower, umbrella, unique, weird, wires
