Cocktail evening at the NSW Art Gallery

Dr Manny Pohl AM, Chairman of EC Pohl & Co, together with the Conservation department of the Art Gallery of NSW, hosted a cocktail party to celebrate the completion of the conservation of the important painting The Five Senses by Carlo Cignani and to acknowledge the retirement of Mr Patrick Corrigan AM and Brian Jones from Global Masters Fund.

A delightful night was had by all as the NSW Art Gallery shared the completion of the conservation of Carlo Cignani’s (now) spectacular painting The Five Senses.

We really are very grateful for the support provided by the Pohl Foundation, which has allowed the conservation team to play a vital role in the Art Gallery’s core mission to ‘acquire, study, conserve and present’ significant works of art in order to connect people to creativity, knowledge and ideas. As well as be enjoyed by future generations.

During the event, we took the opportunity to acknowledge Mr Patrick Corrigan AM and Mr Brian Jones as they retired from their position late last year. Mr Corrigan AM has served as a Director since 2006 and has played a significant part in steering the successful strategy of the Company. We wish Patrick all the best in his retirement.

Mr Jones has been the Company’s secretary since 2007 and we also thank Brian for his service and diligent contribution to the Company. We wish him all the best in his future endeavours.
