Charles and Christa Billich are excited to announce involvement in this year's Melbourne Cup, kicking off at Derby Day on the 2nd November. Featured in one of the events leading marquees will be five bespoke enlargements of Billich's original oil on canvas paintings for this year's cup, which are each an impressive 3.5x 16 m in dimension. The Billich's have always played an active role in the Melbourne Cup, with equestrian sports being a motif amongst many of Charles Billich's famous paintings and sketches.
This year marks a milestone in the scale of work on display and the ongoing partnership between Billich Gallery and the high fashion, celebration and style that encompasses one of the world's largest horse races.
