Gertrude is pleased to announce SAM x Gertrude, a new creative partnership between Shepparton Art Museum and contemporary visual art centre and studio complex Gertrude. The partnership will bring into focus artists and alumni of the Gertrude Studio Program within the outstanding context of Shepparton Art Museum. 

Jordan Halsall: Sentinel is the first SAM x Gertrude exhibition, curated by Caroline Esbenshade, SAM Curator — Exhibitions & Collections, and open at Shepparton Art Museum from 14 November 2026. 

In Sentinel, Melbourne-based artist Jordan Halsall explores the effects of an increasingly digitised world on contemporary life. Through sculptures and paintings that bring together his architecture and fine art practices, Halsall examines the pervasive culture of self-optimisation, the rise of artificial intelligence, and the mediation of image and lifestyles through screens and tech.
