Airdate: Finding The Archibald

Art history series Finding the Archibald, presented by Rachel Griffiths, takes a deep dive into the 100-year history of the Archibald Prize to find one portrait that encapsulates the changing face of Australia. Rachel Griffiths said: “It’s been a thrill to collaborate with Mint Pictures on Finding The Archibald because I’m a huge art enthusiast and have been surrounded by art all my life – my mum was an artist and I’m married to an artist.
