There's an exhibition of war paintings and photos on right now at the QUT Art Museum at Queensland University of Technology's Gardens Point campus in the city - click here for a Google Map.

The Framing Conflict exhibition is presented by the Australian War Memorial and is the work of Lyndell Brown and Charles Green who travelled in the Persian Gulf, South-West Asia and Afghanistan as the Memorial's official war artists.
This video shows Brown and Green being interviewed about the work that led to this exhibition:

The Framing Conflict exhibition is on until Sunday February 28th 2010
Another exhibition is opening at the QUT Art Museum on Tuesday, February 9th 2010 and runs till Sunday March 7th - the KP11 Producing Communities show. This shows off work from 11 organisations that have been working with the cast-offs and people on the edge of society to help them grab hold of some power by using art.
