Brenda L. Croft‘s work features in Women Photographers 1853-2018 at the National Gallery of Australia. The exhibition, which is a Know My Name initiative, highlights the transformative impact of women artists on the history of photography.

In addition, Brenda L. Croft has been selected as a Power Institute Paris Art Residency Fellow at the Cité Internationale for 2026. The fellowship will enable Brenda to build on prior work undertaken in Paris and France to research French and other international collections, especially at the Musée du quai Branly, and to extend her relationships and connections with other curators, artists, and other colleagues in the cultural sector. Key to Brenda’s residency will be her positionality as a creative-led researcher – visual artist, curator, educator, researcher/scholar – building on her work’s inclusion in ON COUNTRY: Photography from Australia in Les Rencontres de la Photographie, Arles, France (2025); and recent selection for the 9th Triennale of Photography, Hamburg, Germany, 2026.
