You’ll Never Take Me Alive! The Ned Kelly Hero Series

New Paintings by Johnny Romeo

“Inspired by the folk lore tales of Ned Kelly, Johnny Romeo’s exhibition You’ll Never Take Me Alive is an investigation into Kelly’s existence in Australia ’s historical fabric and his influence on our national pop culture. The tales of Ned Kelly have been much explored in Australia ’s short history. In this exhibition, Johnny Romeo uncovers his view of Kelly while simultaneously discussing the notion of story telling in our contemporary society.”
